No one else celebrates the holidays and brings in the new year quite like the good folks at Okayplayer and The Roots crew.  B.B. King’s was home to the 3rd Annual OKP Holiday Jammy last month, which featured sets from the cast of Fela! The Musical, Blitz The Ambassador, Bajah + The Dry Eye Crew and of course, The Roots.  Special guests packed the venue and as usual, the show was phenomenal.  The highlights of the night were guest performances by Mos Def and Brother Ali, who rocked with The Legendary.  Here is our exclusive audio of Mos Def performing Umi Says with The Roots, and even going into some bars of 100% Dundee and Adrenaline (!!).  Next up we have Brother Ali taking the stage to do The Trap, The Travelers and freestyle with Black Thought while The Roots play The Preacher beat.  Robert Glasper, Casey Benjamin and a few other usual suspects help round out the band.
