Uzi hit the stage in an all-black outfit, which only made their icy Roc-A-Fella chain shine that much brighter. The eccentric rapper was eventually flanked by a team of dancers who were also draped in black, creating a frenetic environment in the laser red haze.
Sporting a razor sharp mohawk and Balenciaga jeans, Baby Pluto took centerstage to hit their signature feverish “Just Wanna Rock” dance moves before bringing the raucous performance across the finish line.
