The band played a long list of favorites including “Don’t Believe the Hype” and the legendary “Fight the Power.” No stranger to political messages, Chuck D also used the stage to talk about some of today’s hot topics.

Then the duo took the stage and performed songs from the new album including “Watch Out” and “Duffle Bag.”

Backstage after the show, Lil Wayne poured an entire bottle of champagne on his Galaxy S7, hilariously showing how water (and champagne) resistant the brand new device is.
Friday, Samsung debuted its latest ad campaign in the U.S. for the newly released Galaxy S7 and S7 edge which features Lil Wayne in a variety of comedic scenarios showcasing the power of his phone.

Lil Wayne’s adventures with the Galaxy S7 don’t end there, in the comedic ad; “Canoe” featuring Wesley Snipes, the dynamic duo enter the world of virtual reality. And it might surprise you.
