Rachel Maddow might not have won a Grammy for Best Spoken Word Album, but Bravo's Andy Cohen wants to give the out MSNBC anchor another shot at the golden gramophone. On Wednesday's episode of Watch What Happens Live, Cohen hosted Maddow and Grammy-winning rapper Lil Jon, then asked Maddow to bust out some of her best beats to Lil Jon's biggest hits, a mashup of "Get Low" and "Shake That Monkey."

I don't especially enjoy Lil Jon, but with Maddow perfectly enunciating the rapper's lyrics, I must admit they sound much more appealing.

Watch Maddow spit below:

Maddow also weighed in about Jason Collins coming out as the first openly gay current player in the NBA, and Lil Jon speculated that R&B singers (like Frank Ocean) will come out before rappers do. Watch that segment below:
