Video: Lil Wayne Performs Live At 2011 MTV VMAs

Mon, Aug 29, 2011 by Danny M

Above, you can watch Lil Wayne perform “How To Love” and “John” live at MTV’s 28th Annual Video Music Awards at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles, California on August 28th. Unfortunately, Weezy didn’t win any VMA awards this year :(

Does anybody else think that the way Tune said “Young Mula, Baby!” at the end of his performance was directed at Jay-Z :?:

    With Carter 4 you have “6 foot 7 foot” better then “A milli”, “She will” better then “Lollipop”, “President Carter” better then “Mr Carter”, ” How to love” better then “Comfortable” and “Blunt blowing” better then “I got money” and etc… Carter will out sell Carter III.

    I’m one of tunechi’s biggest fans ever, since the first time I heard him (fireman) that was it. I have listened to everything he have dropped since C2 till C4; and to be honest been a fan is not been an ignorant. C4 it’s not Weezy at his best and is almost or below C2. C3 is by far his best album and a classic, I’m really dissapointed with C4…
