As fans impatiently awaited the arrival of his new album, ‘Yandhi,’ rapper Kanye West took to ‘SNL’s season 44 premiere (as a last minute replacement for previously scheduled musical guest, Ariana Grande) to showcase some cuts from the new LP.
The first performance, a live rendition of the emcee’s latest top 10 hit, ‘I Love It,’ came as a meme-tastic, awesomely bad showing alongside the tune’s co-star, Lil Pump. Dressed as a bottle of Perrier (while Pump donned a costume reminiscent of a Fiji water bottle), the two danced and pranced their way into ongoing ridicule on Twitter as fans and detractors alike roasted the duo for the…erm…interesting performance.
