Every year, fans of the American oval ball gather behind their television screens to watch one of the world's most watched sporting events, the Super Bowl. Much more than just a sporting event, the Super Bowl is a true American show, with offbeat commercials, but also, and above all, the famous half-time show featuring an international music star.
Last year, Usher made the show, offering a memorable musical moment. Before him, talented artists such as Michael Jackson in 1993, U2 in 2002, The Rolling Stones in 2006, Madonna in 2012, Coldplay in 2016 and The Weeknd in 2021 have performed at the Super Bowl half-time show. So, what about the musical program of the famous"Halftime Show" for Super Bowl 2025, scheduled to take place in New Orleans on February 9?
The National Football League (NFL) has put an end to the suspense, revealing that Kendrick Lamar, the famous American rapper now aged 37, has been chosen to provide the famous half-time show for the Super Bowl 2025.
It remains to be seen what the world-famous rapper Kendrick Lamar has in store for us for this big Super Bowl half-time show. 2025 is shaping up to be a busy year for the artist, who will be touring the four corners of the USA in the spring of 2025, on his"Grand National Tour", alongside SZA.
California-born Kendrick Lamar has already performed at the Super Bowl half-time show. That was in 2022, alongside a number of the biggest names in American hip-hop. That year, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent and Mary J. Blige performed at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. This time, for Super Bowl 2025, the stakes will be quite different, as Kendrick Lamar will be headlining!
It's an opportunity for Kendrick Lamar, holder of 17 Grammys, to show the public the full extent of his talent. The artist, behind such hits as"All The Stars","HUMBLE." and"Love.", has been at the helm of a sixth album since November 2024, entitled"GNX".
