Last year, the Roots' ?uestlove tweeted a story too weird to be false: Prince once fired him from a DJ set and replaced him with... a Finding Nemo DVD. Today, ?uestlove has narrated the whole long, amazing story in an original cartoon produced by Okayplayer. Watch it below.
Here's the short of it: In exchange for getting a free ticket to a Prince show, ?uestlove was asked to throw a party for the Purple One. While he was DJing, ?uestlove thought his choice of Fela Kuti would impress Prince... except it didn't, leading to the demotion. As he puts it: "I was flabbergasted, because to that point, nobody fronted on Fela." There are so many more bizarre details to this story that to summarize would be folly; definitely, definitely watch it all for yourself.
