Last year, we watched Stranger ThingsOpens in a new tab star Millie Bobby BrownOpens in a new tab highlight her impressive rapping skillsOpens in a new tab on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon; she regaled us all with her own rendition of Nicki Minaj’s “Monster” and again impressed us when she rapped on Fallon’s Golden Globes opener. Both performances were pretty badass, so naturally when she returned to The Tonight Show to promote Stranger Things 2Opens in a new tab, Fallon asked her to rap again.
Of course, she had to do something a bit more impressive than just rap someone else’s song. Ever the professional, Brown used the opportunity to help promote Stranger Things 2. While most of us downed the whole season the first weekend the show released, not everyone was able to. So, to help those people who were still a season behind, Brown rapped a recap of all of the craziness that went down in Hawkins, Indiana in 1983. Take a look:
As usual, Brown does an amazing job rapping and recapping. Not only does she manage to work in the show’s basic plot, but she calls out some of the season’s best moments. For instance, she mentions when ElevenOpens in a new tab destroyed the Demogorgon “just like a grenade,” the classic Eleven bloody noseOpens in a new tab, her deep love of EggosOpens in a new tab, and even manages to offer a quick Barb shout-outOpens in a new tab (because no Stranger Things season one recap is complete without a Barb shout-out). Hopefully Brown and Fallon can work out a recap rap for Stranger Things 2 to distract us from the crushing wait we’re all facing for the show’s third seasonOpens in a new tab.
