It was killing us to hold it in, and fans will have to wait until Thursday at 8 p.m. ET/PT to see what Chainz has in store, but we can assure you that the Atlanta rap rep has more than a few tricks up his long, lanky sleeves.
Tit was all smiles inside of Staples Center as he bounced around mouthing the lyrics to a song we're not at liberty to reveal just yet. Stage hands tinkered with the set, as the crew tested the lighting, all the while 2 Chainz performed several practice runs trying to work out any kinks before Thursday. After each run-through, the towering rap giant huddled up with his DJ and manager Tek, who was watching from the floor seats.
Chainz was as cool as a cucumber though he did need a bit of clarification from MTV News correspondent and 2012 VMA pre-show host Sway Calloway after his rehearsal. "On the small stage? I'm on the small stage," he asked Sway playfully.After Sway reminded to the Based on a T.R.U. Story MC that he will indeed be performing on the world's biggest stage during the 2012 Video Music Awards, reality began to set in. "OK, so now I'm a little nervous," 2 Chainz said coyly while laughing. "I'm just having fun, bruh. Sometimes I don't even realize the moment that I'm in because I'm just too damn enjoying myself."
The 2012 MTV Video Music Awards are set to go live from Staples Center in Los Angeles on Thursday at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
