Kevin Winter/Getty Images Yung Lean and a horde of dancers lit up the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards stage with the live premiere of Lean’s collaboration with GENER8ION, “Storm II,” marking their debuts at the MTV VMAs. A high point of the evening, the artists and dancers recreated the music video for the second of their two-part “Storm” in front of a live audience.
At the top of their performance, Yung Lean grabbed a Moon Person before making his way to the main stage and smashing the statue on the ground. Directly mirroring the music video, Yung Lean was flanked by a swath of dancers in school uniforms who ripple through captivating choreography created by Damien Jalet. After an energetic and meticulous performance by the dancers, Lean left the formation and spat a blue ice cream cone into the camera lens as the song faded out.
