I can't embed...but click the link and explain why this is a problem?

Brody in an interview...

Another comedic topic that I've wanted to learn more about: there's a rumor that you've been banned from "SNL." [Editor's note: Watch a video of the incident that prompted the banning.]
I've heard that, but I don't know.

Did Lorne Michaels say something to you backstage?
No, nothing like that.

Then I don't know how that story got out.
I don't either.

Well I'd like to see you host again.
I would too, I had a great time.
 
He was bringing on Sean Paul...

Sean Paul and his band were participating in it...

Someone had to have wrote and rehearsed this for it to be in the show...

So no.
 
damn, dude look just like julian marley....anyway i didnt see what was wrong with it.
 
* Adrien Brody became the latest person banned on May 10, 2003. He came out to introduce reggae musician Sean Paul, while wearing Rastafarian attire including faux dreadlocks. Without any prior notice, Brody began rambling in a Jamaican accent for close to 45 seconds before finally introducing the act incorrectly, misannouncing "Sean Paul" as "Sean John.

Still funny
 
Brody was banned from the show after giving an improvised introduction while wearing faux dreadlocks for Jamaican reggae musical guest Sean Paul (the show's producer, Lorne Michaels, is notorious for hating unscripted performances). However, the unscripted intro remains in reruns of the episode. In a Howard Stern interview with former head writer Tina Fey, Fey said that during a writer's meeting, Adrien Brody constantly dished out bad sketch ideas which were ignored by the writers, causing Brody to get upset.

Decent impression. He should have prepped them tho' - everybody knows the accent and maybe some of the dialect but that part of the show is supposed to be upbeat but it isn't supposed to upstage the guest.
 
As "good" as the impression may or may not be that shit was offensive man
