Wayne performed a pair of tracks, “Uproar” and “Can’t Be Broken,” from the long-delayed project, joined by Swizz Beatz and Halsey, respectively. He also appeared in a hilarious digital short with Future as guest rappers in a music video for a song about consent. The performance followed a week that saw the addition of three new tracks to his 2018 album, featuring contributions from Gucci Mane and Post Malone.
