The Mighty Afro behind hip-hop’s Legendary Roots Crew and the veritable Doc Severinsen of Late Night With Jimmy Fallon is looking for a few good cooks, Okayplayer reports. Actually, he’s just looking for one, but he’s willing to give five the chance to compete in his Qookoff Show Down, which will take place on April 3. The winner of the Iron Chef–esque competition will take the lead role in his still-under-wraps Philly food venture as well as cook for his band and their guests at June’s Roots Picnic. Both professional and amateur cooks are encouraged to compete. To be considered, cooks must submit a 90-second (or shorter) video that demonstrates their personality more than their culinary skills to questlovesfood@gmail.com by Friday, March 25. (A word to the wise: Aim for something a little more creative than NBC’s cafeteria.) [Okayplayer]
