Killer Mike and Method Man Join Lord of the Rings Cast for 20th Anniversary Rap on Colbert: Watch

Next week marks the 20th anniversary of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (a movie that was recently added to the National Film Registry). To celebrate the film’s milestone early, Stephen Colbert put together a nerdy rap tribute that inexplicably features Jon Batiste, Method Man, and Killer Mike, alongside movie stars Elijah Wood, Orlando Bloom, Andy Serkis, Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, Dominic Monaghan, and Hugo Weaving. Colbert, of course, raps, too. It’s called “#1 Trilly” and you can check it out below.
