KANYE WEST, JAY-Z, LIL WAYNE, TI, and MIA - SWAGGER LIKE US
Swagger Like Us indeed. It's just Kanye West, Jay-Z, Lil Wayne, T.I. and a super pregnant M.I.A. I'm still in shock. For the most part, I just can't believe all of five(!!!) of them were on the same stage at the same time. I suppose it makes sense. I mean they are all there, right? Why not get five of the biggest musicians in the world to perform one of the biggest songs of the year? The plan was so simple, I didn't even expect it. Once that curtain roles up and The Rap pack appear, one fact becomes incredibly clear: this is going to be good. And good it was.
RADIOHEAD - 15 STEP
Radiohead (ya know, the best band in the world) also showed up and with the help the USC marching band to play the In Rainbows lead off track "15 Step". Although the absence of Ed O'Brien, Colin Greenwood, Phil Selway is curious, the marching band gives this already brilliant track a very cool feel. I could write pages about the injustices of In Rainbows not winning album of the year, but I don't have the time and I assume you don't have the patience. Instead, use your time effectively and watch this.
There was other stuff, but these two were my favorite. For more performances check out Pitchfork's video recap.
