    Wayne Brady is absolutely amazing and he was absolutely made for this role as much as Leslie Odom Jr. is.
    Having said that, did he really mess those lyrics up? 😂
    No hating, just surprised to hear a slip like that. It was supposed to be “Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb, he has something to prove…”
    But he said the second part, “Hamilton’s pace is relentless he wastes no time” twice instead. I know I can’t be the only person who noticed this 😂
