The two performed their song "I Love It," which was released September 7. Adele Givens, who is also featured on the song, appeared in the background.
The entire performance was overshadowed by the two rappers dancing around the "SNL" stage in their costumes. Viewers didn't know what to make of the scene.

Hey uhhhh Kanye West is so fucking cringey on SNL and I feel uncomfortable and I want an apology. That was hands down worst SNL performance.
