They Got The Right One: Kendrick Lamar Is The Super Bowl LIX Halftime Performer [Fan Reactions]

Kendrick Lamar has officially been announced as the headliner for the Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show, set to take place on February 9, 2025, at The Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. The news, revealed by Roc Nation, Apple Music, and the NFL, has electrified fans worldwide, with many taking to social media to express their excitement and anticipation for what promises to be an unforgettable performance.

Multi-platinum, Grammy, and Emmy award-winning artist, Kendrick, is known for his powerful influence on music and culture. His ability to craft moments that resonate on a global scale has made him a once-in-a-generation artist, as noted by Jay-Z, who described Lamar as someone whose work transcends music and influences culture worldwide. Of course, his recent viral diss record “Not Like Us” has led to one of the most significant moments in rap history. In April of this year, “Like That” by Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar spent three weeks at Number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and in June, Lamar’s record-breaking, “Not Like Us” spent two weeks at Number 1. The unexpected rap beef further cemented K Dot as a staple in music and pop culture at large.
