Members of Hyundai’s RE:GENERATION movement performed the funky jazz tune “A La Modeliste” on David Letterman. Produced by Mark Ronson, led by Erykah Badu and backed up by Ziggaboo Modeliste and few a Dap Kings, the artists did a great job representing classic New Orleans music. Great set. Where were Yasiin Bey and Trombone Shorty though? Check out the performance below.
