Hopefully you saw him do his epic Will Smith and Denzel Washington impressions in previous SNL episodes this season.
Now Jay does Kanye, and it's the best Kanye impression I'm pretty sure I've ever seen.
UPDATE: Someone pointed out he did Denzel again this week in a parody of the trailer for that Denzel runaway train movie, "Unstoppable". Again, no one is killing it like Jay right now.

Definitely had Kanye down!
I posted his Denzel skit on YouTube & it has almost 60,000 views. That show with Jane Lynch was the best of the season so far. Her Sunday Night Football theme song has over 30,000 views.
I was geeked for the season to start when someone hipped me to his Will vs Denzel skit!
But, otherwise...the shows have been hard to watch. They either need new writers, or the old ones need a kick in the ass!
Does this mean trouble for Keenan?
remember when snl had original characters. imo, this guys denzel impression is better,(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lffj63XpzA).
I'm both happy and sad for Jay. Happy to see a brother break out and be recognized for his talent, sure. But for the entire season now, they have simply trotted him out to do impressions, all of which had no bearing to current events, news, or other context, until this past week with Ye in the news and Denzel's new flick. Dude hasn't been seen any other time this season. Can he get written into a single damn sketch as a normal comedic player? Can he get a recurring character? Why do we see him only in the limited capacity of impersonating black celebs? I hate this, man.
To be clear, this is certainly no comment on him, because I think that he's a great talent. but I think that his usage thus far has been bullshit.
