Continuing its trend of celebrating Black culture, Google unveiled a tribute to the birth of hip hop with an interactive turntable.
Before users can mix their own tunes, a visit to the search engine’s home page launches them into a video narrated by former “Yo! MTV Raps” host Fab Five Freddy. Then, folks can choose from a collection of classic tunes to remix to their hearts’ content.
Now, some are getting hella distracted.
I'll Google that, hang on…

Some simply want to show off their stellar (virtual) spinning skills.
