Check out Young Money performing their single, “Bed Rock” recently at MTV‘s Spring Break in Mexico. Some of the YM artists are rocking the “@tunechi” t-shirts, and Tyga was wearing a “Free Weezy” cap. They also started chanting out “Weezy!” at the end of their performance, and Tygaman jumps into the crowd.
In the video above, you can see a backstage view of Young Money performing at MTV’s Spring Break 2010. They perform their songs: “Roger That“, “Bed Rock“, “Finale“, “Girl I Got You“, and you can also see Short Dawg in their hotel speaking Spanish.
The Young Money crew is packing their Louis Vuitton bags and heading south of the border. Hip-hop’s first family will descend on Acapulco, Mexico, for one big spring break party later this month.
Drake and Nicki Minaj will help headline MTV Spring Break 2010, along with other members of the YM supergroup, performing their No. 2 single in the country “BedRock.” Drizzy will get the crowd hyped with “Over,” the first offering from his debut album Thank Me Later, while Young Money’s First Lady ambushes the stage with the first live performance of her new single “Massive Attack,” produced by Sean Garrett and Alex Da Kid.
Hip Hop’s Barbie won’t only pop up during Young Money’s set. Minaj will storm the sandy shores of Mexico with Ludacris for their collaboration “My Chick Bad” from Luda’s Battle of the Sexes album.
Via Rap-Up, and anyone remember last time at Spring Break when Young Money performed their hit “Every Girl”
While we patiently wait for Drake’s first single “Over”, here’s some HD footage of Drizzy performing live at the Axe Lounge at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach during Super Bowl weekend. He runs through eight songs including “Best I Ever Had,” “Say Something,” “BedRock,” and “Throw It in the Bag (Remix),” and reps for his boy Lil Wayne.
