Nicki Minaj performed two songs from her forthcoming record Queen at tonight’s BET Awards in Los Angeles, and later joined YG, 2 Chainz and Big Sean to perform their collab “Big Bank“. The performances were typically gaudy and great: “Chun-Li” found Nicki backed by her usual pan-Asian aesthetics, while “Rich Sex” involved an array of flashing neon signs. Watch those performances above.
The second performance, of “Big Bank”, was also pretty bonkers: YG wore what looked like silk jammies with money printed on them, 2 Chainz was dressed in a gold suit with shorts, and Big Sean, of course, dressed like an eight-year-old. Nicki outdid them all, delivering her verse on a sparkly pink horse, surrounded by jockeys. It is… a lot. Watch the performance below:
