Can You Name This Hamilton Song From Just One “Yo”? Take Our Quiz.

thefederalistfreestyle:

Hamilton is a musical that delights in—and is largely about—the power of language. But it also understands that, if delivered with enough attitude, a lot can be conveyed with even just a single, somewhat nonsensical monosyllable. (Something that all great rappers understand very well.)

So we made this quiz: Can you identify each Hamilton character and song from just one yo?

yo… how’d you do?

This fanartist created some beautiful playing cards inspired by the ‘Hamilton’ cast

Using Photoshop, Tumblr user @birdloaf created a card for each of the musical’s main characters, sorted into the four suits. The playing cards are thoughtful as well as beautiful, each one corresponding to the character’s role in the show. For instance, George III is the melodramatic King of Hearts, Thomas Jefferson is a mic-toting emcee, and Hamilton turns paper into diamonds with the power of the written word.

And the rest of the deck is just as stunning.
