Over the weekend, 2 Chainz was in town to tape a performance for BET's "Player Awards" at the Penn & Teller Theater at the Rio.

The event, which aired last night and was produced by the cable channel, in association with the National Basketball Players Association, recognizes the league's best players. The Atlanta-based rapper was one of the artists tapped to perform at the awards, along with Lil Wayne, Fifth Harmony and others.

Not sure what happened while he was here, but 2 Chainz (aka Tauheed Epps) says he's frequently been denied access to nightclubs when he comes to town without explanation. He openly expressed his frustration on Instagram.
