Kendrick Lamar will headline the halftime show at Super Bowl 2025. Joining a long list of past outstanding performers such as Usher, Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, and many others, the hitmaker of «Not Like Us» has secured a highly coveted spot at the upcoming event. Kendrick and the NFL announced the news on September 8, 2024, five months before the Super Bowl.
«Rap music continues to be the most influential genre today», - Kendrick said in a statement. «And I’ll be there to remind the world why. They picked the right one».
Below are all the details we know so far about Super Bowl 2025.
The artist of «Like That» announced the news in a video where he stands in front of a huge American flag on a football field, tossing a few footballs for «warm-up».
In the video, Kendrick tells viewers, «What's up, everybody? My name is Kendrick Lamar, and I’ll be performing at Super Bowl LIX. Will you be there? I hope so. You know there’s only one chance to win the championship. No second tries».
Super Bowl 2025 will start on Sunday, February 9, 2025.
Super Bowl 2025 will take place at Caesar’s Coliseum in New Orleans.
Kendrick’s setlist for his halftime performance has not been published yet. But fans can expect him to perform some of his most popular hits, as well as diss tracks. «Not Like Us» and «Like That» were released during Kendrick’s ongoing feud with fellow rapper Drake. Both immediately became huge hits, and fans speculate that he may perform both.
Among Kendrick’s other popular hits are «Swimming Pools (Drank)», - «Poetic Justice», - and his remix of Taylor Swift’s song «Bad Blood». It is unclear if Taylor will join Kendrick on stage at the Super Bowl, but if she does, it wouldn’t be the first time a collaborator has joined the headliner. In 2022, Kendrick performed with Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent, and Mary J. Blige at the event’s first hip-hop show. The following year, Alicia Keys joined Usher at the Super Bowl 2023 halftime show to perform their hit «My Boo»
