Se även Sverigeaktuella Logics framträdande under galan!

På söndagsnatten hölls MTV Video Music Awards på The Forum i Los Angeles. Kendrick Lamar och teamet bakom “HUMBLE. och “DAMN.” var nominerade i hela åtta kategorier och plockade hem hela sex statyetter under galans gång.

Kendrick Lamar uppträdde även live med “DNA.” och “HUMBLE.” live på scen:

Logic stod även för ett känslosamt uppträdande på VMA-galan där han tillsammans med Alessia och Khalid och flera överlevare stod på scen iförda t-shirts med texten “You’re not alone” och det amerikanska krisnumret för personer som funderar på självmord. I slutet av uppträdandet höll Logic ett brandtal som möttes av stående ovationer.

“I just want to thank you all for giving me a platform to talk about mental health suicide an depression,” (..)”I don’t give a damn if you’re black white or any color in between, I’m going to fight for your equality.”
