The rapper kicked off her show at the Californian festival – which will see sets from the likes of Post Malone, Travis Scott, Missy Elliott, Charli XCX, Megan Thee Stallion and more this weekend – arriving on the main stage disguised as a car during the intro to ‘Throw It Back’.
She then turned into a robot before she performed ‘Cool Off’ – which was interpolated with samples of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’. You can view the moment below.
From there the rapper performed the likes of ‘We Run This’, ‘The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly)’, ‘She’s A Bitch’, ‘Pass That Dutch’ alongside the likes of ‘Work It’ and ‘Get Ur Freak On’. You can watch her full performance here.
