You know, performing in corporate offices stuffed with nerds is fine, but at the end of the day, you need to prove that your beats work in the club. Perhaps that’s one reason why Kanye West hit up racy New York burlesque club The Box just before 2 a.m. this morning. ‘Ye required formal attire for everyone attending the show, which was an unofficial after-party for Rihanna’s smoking hot MSG set. But his setlist — “Moma’s Boyfriend”, “Power”, and some old classics — made it well worth the trouble. Watch Yeezy take the stage below:

Mr. West filled the stage with some talented friends (John Legend on piano, as well as Estelle, Mr Hudson, A-Trak and Pusha T). We hope everyone dressed appropriately. Here’s Kanye on “Mama’s Boyfriend”:

Sounds like it was a hell of a night. Oh that’s right, it was.
