The rapper closed out her performance after jumping on a silver-spike vehicle. In the post-apocalyptic setting, she and her dancers rode through the desert landscape on dusty ATVs. She performed her Beyoncé-assisted hit “Savage Remix” and “Girls in the Hood,” a revamp of Easy E’s 1987 song “Boyz-N-The Hood.” Sporting a feathered crop top, she danced and twerked alongside her dancers who wore masks and maintained social distance amid the coronavirus pandemic.
