Super Bowl Halftime Show 2022

[JawnyBlaze]

If this is true, that will be epic. No halftime show in my lifetime comes even close to Eminem or Dre even if they were solo, with with all of those it’s incredible.

Hip Hop came started in the late 70's.  Its a damn shame that it took decades to put REAL Hip Hop on display during a Superbowl halftime.  We've been dealing with decades of trash music for most of those decades.

I mean, there is no way that cast will suck in comparison to what they have been doing lately at halftime.

Dre, Snoop, Em > The Weekend, Shakira, Katy Perry, Coldplay, Gaga

Agreed. I don't mind this lineup though I really wish they'd give a rock group a chance to headline it (and I obviously don't count Coldplay as rock like some people do). Now that I think about it, the last appearance of a rock group was the Red Hot Chili Peppers in 2014 when they did a song with Bruno Mars.

Do not hate.

Looks like the players will be too distracted to play in the game with all the rap music..

 

but foreal - this should be amazing.. first SB halftime show I can remember that I am actually excited to see..

Easy to tell who is a hip hop fan and who isn't in this thread, haha

Great, the Illuminati have taken over the halftime shows again 

[MechaZain]

Eh I prefer showcasing one artist. Kendrick or Em solo would have been great. Dre is the common link between them all, why not just make it his show?

I agree.  Instead will get snippets of various songs.  Still going to be an amazing show.  Sounds like one of the best lineups since I was a kid.

@ichigo1057 I agree a rock band would be good, but at this point who?  I don't think there are many left that are relevant and that are main stream enough.  It would have to be a throwback type thing, kind of like this rap show is.

Count me in for the hip hop fans. I cant wait to see this

I still want to see Weird Al doing a halftime show with a lot of well-known songs with the parody's based on football, with focus on specific things that happened with each team historically and within that season.

they went throwback rock band heavy after Nipplegate.    Stones, The Who.  I don't seem doing that anymore.   You got to switch generations at this stage in to who you are throwing back for.    I mean, this Dr/Em is hitting smack at the 40 year old crowd.  Which I think is about right.   Hard to cater to the 60+ year old crowd anymore at the Super Bowl (and that is what throwback rock would be at this point).   And there isn't really 40 year old rock throw back IMO to go.  Eddie Vedder ain't a halftime show and basically everyone else is gone from that era.   Chili Peppers already did it.

Lost interest in those halftime shows long ago.  All hype.

Yeahhh...when I said throwback rock I mean, Green Day.  Maybe Pearl Jam.
