Lin-Manuel Miranda, who stars in Broadway's hip-hop masterpiece Hamilton, stopped by The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon last night. Miranda is known to be an avid rhymer, as seen by his performance at the BET Hip Hop Awards cyphers back in October. So, he was more than willing to participate in the Wheel of Freestyle competition against The Roots' Black Thought. Three words are chosen at random and Miranda must make a rap out of them. He does fairly well, showing off his skills and even working in a slick line about Drake and “Started From the Bottom.” Who do you think won? Watch the video above to find out.
