...them, improvising some delicious rhymes seemingly from leftfield: Christmas ("seemed last year I got a Sega Genesis/Now my Ma's my nemesis") and the X-Files ("it's really complex/To analyze what's next"). Scott & Chiqui displayed impressive pop-culture name-checking ("Just last week I saw Princess Amidala/Grab Portman by the collar"), a sense of humor (somehow Roy worked in the lyrics of the dreidel song in his rap on Hanukkah).

Portman pouts prettily at Adele's all too predictable capers--naturally she forgets to pay the utility bills, misreads her daughter's dreams and that handsome orthodontist's intentions. But you can feel these beats coming--thump, thump--a mile off, and Wang's inert direction does nothing to enliven their...
