Questlove was so impressed he couldn't help but tweet about it.

R&B singer Normani tore up the Tonight Show stage for her debut on the late-night talk show. She gave a well-choreographed performance of her debut solo single "Waves" featuring 6LACK, a brooding ballad about the difficulties of ridding yourself of your ex after breaking up. For an upcoming artist, Normani impressed the masses with her performance and even received kudos from Questlove who, along with the remainder of his band The Roots, have been the house band for The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon since 2014.

"After some 2000 summed odd episodes of Late Night/Tonight Iโ€™ll say that @Normaniโ€™s performance on #FallonTonight was one of the most impressive performance debuts Iโ€™ve seen in the history of the show. Extremely impressed. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ," Questlove tweeted. He wasn't the only one who was mesmerized by the Atlanta-born, New Orleans-raised singer's Tonight Show feature. Twitter lit up as soon as the performance concluded and fans couldn't get enough.
