Jimmy Fallon isn’t just jingling bells this holiday season—he’s dropping beats. With Holiday Seasoning arriving on November 1st, 2024, Fallon’s not playing it safe. Nope, he’s pulling out all the stops with a mix of stars like Justin Timberlake, Ariana Grande, Megan Thee Stallion, The Roots, Dolly Parton, and more. It’s festive, it’s fun, and it’s going to turn your holiday playlist into a party no one saw coming.
Fallon’s love for music isn’t news, but this album shows he’s more than a late-night sketch king. Remember when Fallon went full-on fanboy over Jimin of BTS in the studio, practically buzzing with excitement when he caught Jimin recording Who? Fallon wasn’t shy about it—he said with full enthusiasm that the song would hit number one. But as it turns out, Fallon wasn’t just hanging around—he was actually in the studio working on Holiday Seasoning at the time!
On a sunny Monday morning (October 21st), Fallon, in classic playful fashion, decided to "unwrap" his album for us. In a short and cheerful video, he revealed the star-studded tracklist, like a kid tearing into holiday presents, each feature a new surprise from his upcoming release on November 1st. No frills, no big speeches—just Fallon doing what he does best: having fun with it.
Holiday Seasoning reveals the results of that holiday magic. And speaking of connections, Megan Thee Stallion—one of Fallon's partners-in-jingle on this album—made waves this year with her hit Neva Play with RM of BTS, proving that these musical worlds blend better than we might’ve ever imagined. Fallon is tapping into that same crossover energy to give us an album that’s playful, surprising, and catchy as heck.
This isn’t your grandma’s holiday album. Sure, there’s nostalgia with Dolly Parton’s unmistakable warmth and Timberlake’s pop perfection, but Fallon is shaking up the snow globe. You’ve got hilarious tracks like Christmas Ding Dong and Weird Cousin, and then the big collabs like It Was A… (Masked Christmas) featuring Ariana Grande and Megan Thee Stallion. It’s a full lineup of surprises, and Fallon even gets a little offbeat with New Year’s Eve Polka (5-4-3-2-1) featuring “Weird Al” Yankovic & The Roots. From traditional carols to out-there comedy, there’s a track for every holiday mood.
