Stephen Colbert Gives Alicia Keys' 'Empire' A Suburban Remix
RCA

Stephen Colbert has brought an "Empire State of Mind" to the suburbs. On Tuesday night's "Colbert Report," the talk show host crashed Alicia Keys' performance of her chart-topping ode to New York and gave the absent Jay-Z a run for his money. Wearing a dark hoodie under his suit, Colbert grabbed the mic and dropped a hilarious rhyme about living large in … Connecticut.

"Shopping mall is close, my community is gated/ My shorties are all private school educated/ Home theater system, 60 inch plasma/ Clean suburban air, much better for my asthma."

Watch the video below and tell us what you think about Colbert's flow.
