21 Savage's Sequin Jacket Is The Star Of His Fallon Performance

By Trey Alston


21 Savage gave one heck of an intimate efficiency of “A Lot” Monday night (January 28) on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal and comedian Colin Quinn were the show’s visitors and recommended some hilarious anecdotes to bring the laughs, however the atmosphere created by 21 Savage’s live rendition of the song from his new album I Am > I Was was nothing far less than extraordinary.


21 started the efficiency sitting on a stool in the middle of the stage in a red-sequined jacket; Michael Jackson from Thriller would have been jealous. The live musical group and vocalists elevated the minimalistic efficiency into a surreal experience. Eventually, 21 stood up as plain-faced as ever and imbued the spectacle with a more mysterious energy in its second verse. The drum-set breakdown at the end was majestic.


I Am > I Was came out in December and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in its starting week, moving 131,000 units. Earlier that month, he also gave his ghoulish voice to “Immortal” from the initial trailer for Mortal Kombat 11. His group effort with Post Malone, “Rockstar,” is nominated for Record of the Year and Best Rap/Sung Teamwork at the 61st Grammys.


Watch the whole efficiency above.
