"Tyler started by marching to stage in his Chromakopia getup, flanked by similarly-dressed soldiers, before the broadcast cut to black and white. Then, after an outfit change and a spoken-word interlude from Regina King, the rapper jumped into a red sports car for "Sugar on My Tongue." And then he blew up the stage. No, for real - he literally blew up the stage."
