29 Most Memorable Late-Night Hip-Hop Performances

Late night television is sacred ground. It's the time slot of the night where adults across the U.S. can sit down after a long day of work and watch their favorite stars take part in hilarious interviews, act in funny skits and share untold stories. Besides the funny factor, one major aspect of late night television is the musical guests.

Some of the biggest musicians of all-time have made their most unforgettable musical moments during late night television. From The Arsenio Hall Show to Late Night With David Letterman to The Colbert Report and everything in between, guests from every genre of music have graced the stage to perform. But it's hip-hop that always turns things up

Who can forget when Tyler, The Creator made his national television debut on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon in 2011 after he turned the internet upside with his music. Or what about Kendrick Lamar closing out the The Colbert Report with "Untitled," just before he dropped his untitled unmastered project.

As hip-hop continues to grow and become more popular, more doors and opportunity pops up each day. From Kid Cudi to Kanye West to A Tribe Called Quest to Lauryn Hill and more, here are the 27 of the most memorable hip-hop performances from late night television.
