The NFL, Apple Music and Roc Nation announced on Sunday that Lamar will lead the half-time festivities from the Caesars Superdome on 9 February. The rap megastar said he’s looking forward to bringing hip-hop to the NFL’s championship game, where he performed as a guest artist with Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg in 2022.“Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date,” Lamar said in a statement. “And I’ll be there to remind the world why. They got the right one.

Since then, he’s accumulated 17 Grammy wins and became the first non-classical, non-jazz musician to win a Pulitzer Prize for his 2017 album DAMN. The rapper’s latest album Mr Morale & The Big Steppers, was released in 2022. This summer he has had two huge hits, Like That and Not Like Us,“His deep love for hip-hop and culture informs his artistic vision,” Jay-Z said. “He has an unparalleled ability to define and influence culture globally. Kendrick’s work transcends music, and his impact will be felt for years to come.”
