President's Inauguration Ball to Show Hip Hop Talent

I thought this was so cool when I heard it. Jay-Z, Beyonce, Mariah Carey, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Mary J. Blige and Faith Hill were among several that performed at the 2009 President's Inauguration Ball. The first dance, sung by Beyonce, was revealed to be Etta James's "At Last". I really do like that song, but I think I would have been more entertained to see Obama and Michelle rock out to "Put a Ring on it", or even better... "Bootylicious". Either way, that set up of talented Hip Hop and Rnb artists is pretty sick!
