The stage is decorated like a war torn battle ground; backing dancers dressed as soldiers in tank tops and short shorts appear to do battle with camp high kicks and laser guns that flash neon across the background. A large piece of fuselage lowers from the ceiling and standing atop it is the Russian superstar, Badimir "No Diss" Putin. Normally known for his East Coast raps, "No Diss" is here to perform a mid tempo track called Air Space.
(To the tune of...)
Air Space - Badimir No Diss Putin
Nice to meet you
I’m Putin
I rule Russia and I’m shootin’
Rivals, gay men, lesbi-ans
Saw Ukraine and I thought “oh my god
Look at that land, I’m going in, to take command
Black Sea base, wanna taaake it!”
We’ve got money so don’t try
I’ll defeat you ‘cause I’m fearlessly
Gonna fight you on the sly
And I know you heard about B-U-Ks
But let’s pretend
You didn’t know, my Europe friends
Grab your passports and come to Minsk,
We can fight the bad guys together like grown men.
So it's gonna be clever
I’m gonna shoot it down in flames
Why’d you go and fly it over
The fight in the Ukraine
M H one seven explodes
We’ll say that it’s a shame
But you know we want to expose
The U-S-of-A!
‘Cause we’re sick of the damn West
We'll take this way too far
Crimea’s getting annexed, and
We’ll say tata Tatar
Got BUKs they’re rocket launchers
I’ll use them for my gain
But you’re in my air space baby
So I shot your plane.
Pussy Riot
Nemtsov died
Litvinenko took a toxic drink
Edward Snowden gets to hide
I’m the king baby and I think
I should, get what I want
Occupy, them for ten months
But the worst is yet to come! Oh no!
Caucus: Georgia, Chechen wars,
I can make all of NATO scream
Our back garden’s full of brawls
Stop you interfering like “oh my god
Don’t do that!” I get drunk, take ecstasy
Do what I want, ‘cause I’m Putin
‘Cause darling I'm a nightmare and I kill drag queens.
So it's gonna be clever
I’m gonna shoot it down in flames
Why’d you go and fly it over
The fight in the Ukraine
M H one seven explodes
We’ll say that it’s a shame
But you know we want to expose
The U-S-of-A!
‘Cause we’re sick of the damn West
We'll take this way too far
Crimea’s getting annexed, and
We’ll say tata Tatar
Got BUKs they’re rocket launchers
I’ll use them for my gain
But you’re in my air space baby
So I shot your plane.
We only want war, guns and torture
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn you
We only want war, guns and torture
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn you!
So it's gonna be clever
I’m gonna shoot it down in flames
Why’d you go and fly it over
The fight in the Ukraine
M H one seven explodes
We’ll say that it’s a shame
But you know we want to expose
The U-S-of-A!
‘Cause we’re sick of the damn West
We'll take this way too far
Crimea’s getting annexed, and
We’ll say tata Tatar
Got BUKs they’re rocket launchers
I’ll use them for my gain
But you’re in my air space baby
So I shot the plane.
