Black Thought has rapped the entire plot of the new Game of Thrones season six episode on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. 

The rapper, also known as Tariq Trotter, rapped his way through the plot of the season six premiere in less than a minute, after host Jimmy Fallon read out a faux letter from a viewer asking for a summary of the show.

“I saw it and it was great. But I don’t think I could break it down in under a minute,” Fallon began. “But I know someone who can”.

After admitting to being a ‘big fan’ of the show, Black Thought preceded to rap an entire summary the episode. You can watch it below (spoilers, obvs).

Black Thought is a member and founder of the instrumental rap collective The Roots, who also featured in his performance. The Roots were formed in 1987 and have since gone on to release 10 studio albums as well as numerous EPs.

The performance follows Black Thought's 2015 rap of the season five premiere, also on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, which you can also view below.
