The 2015 MTV VMAs have seen its fair share of interesting moments, ranging from Kanye West announcing his presidential candidacy in 2020 and the surprise collaboration between Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift. There haven't been many crossover collabs until Twenty One Pilots and A$AP Rocky took the stage together to perform a medley of their tracks including "Lane Boy" and "L$D."

The three artists came right out of the gate as Rocky and Twenty One Pilots front man Tyler Joseph got right into their tunes. Drummer Josh Dun got after it on the drums as the Joseph and Rocky ran around on stage, running through three songs in four minutes including "L$D," "Lane Boy" and "Heavydirtysoul."
At times it was difficult to keep up with, especially with Rocky's soft-sounding mic, but the performance as a whole was amazing and the most interesting musical of all the showings throughout the night.
Joseph and Rocky took turns rapping with vigor and voracity, chiming in on each other's track and adding their individual tempo to it.
This was the first real risk that we are accustomed to seeing on other award shows like The Grammys.
VMAs Performances: Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, Demi Lovato, Justin Bieber, Pharrell Williams, Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Tori Kelly, Twenty One Pilots with A$AP Rocky and more.
