Rae Sremmurd Bring "Black Beatles" to Ed Sullivan Theater, 53 Years After Other Beatles

Stephen Colbert worked hard to nail the pronunciation.

Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi were the musical guests on last night's Late Night with Stephen Colbert, 53 years to the day after The Beatles initiated the British Invasion on the same stage at the Ed Sullivan Theater. Even with the addition of Jon Batiste and Stay Human, the performance was pretty much what we've come to expect from Rae Sremmurd by now: energetic, fun, full of Instagram shout-outs. So extra credit must go to Stephen Colbert himself who, unlike Ellen DeGeneres, was able to pronounce both "Rae Sremmurd" and "SremmLife 2" without panicking or using a voiceover.
