J Balvin took the stage tonight at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards to perform his song “Nivel de Perreo.” The performance marked the single’s television world premiere, and it featured a giant twerking AR dancer. It’s also Balvin’s first performance at the VMAs since 2019, when he joined Bad Bunny to play the song “Que Pretendes” from their collaborative album Oasis. Watch it happen below.
J Balvin’s fifth solo studio album, Jose, was released in September 2021. The followup to 2020’s Colores featured singles “Que Locura,” “In da Getto,” “Otro Fili,” “Qué Más Pues?,” “7 de Mayo,” and “Otra Noche sin Ti.” This past April, he teamed up with María Becerra to perform “Qué Más Pues?” at the 2022 Grammy Awards, where he was nominated for the Best Música Urbana Album.
