Watch Alex Trebek Rap Lyrics By Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Lil Wayne, & Desiigner On Jeopardy!
Perhaps because Jeopardy! is in the middle of its collegiate tournament right now, the game show featured a rap category tonight with humorous results. The answers to Let’s Rap, Kids! involved Alex Trebek reciting lyrics from Drake’s “Started From The Bottom,” Kanye West’s “Famous,” Lil Wayne’s “6 Foot 7 Foot,” Kendrick Lamar’s “m.A.A.d. City,” and, perhaps most enjoyably, Desiigner’s “Panda.” Unfortunately Trebek was not required to rap, “I got broads in Atlanta.” Maybe next time. Check out Trebek’s mic skills below.

Unfortunately, it didn’t go so well for this guy:
There's a rap category in College Jeopardy that states lyrics, one clue included "Weezy F Baby" and this kid just said 'Kanye West'. I quit. pic.twitter.com/KtRJ6uBkDk
