And Katy perry sucks...dodnt she share the stage with others
That’s quite the random example you’re bringing up.
I have no idea if a horse was punched in another city. Chances are there have been other really dumb and senseless acts in those cities.
I’m in no way condoning wreckless and dangerous behavior to celebrate but it cracks me up how people on this board constantly think these types of “celebrations” only happen in Philly.
Please do everyone a favor and bail from this site or get the help you need. Seriously.
Can’t believe no one has mentioned Serena Williams crip walking on stage. That was a highlight for me
Super Bowl halftime musical performances are a far cry from a free show people don’t need to watch.
If it’s a musical performance, can we expect talented musicians?
1. No, it's the definition of a free show you don't need to watch. If you have no interest, perfect time to make/eat dinner or snacks, walk the dog, take a shower, whatever.
2. Kendrick Lamar isn't my cup of tea, either, but he's considered an exceptionally talented writer and musician with a bookshelf of awards. Personally didn't think it translated well to the venue, but to say he lacks talent just because you don't like the music is silly.
I had a lot of interest, I’d heard his name before but never listened to his music…I was totally interested.
I think talent is a fairly recognizable thing at every level, I don’t like opera or ballet but I’m astounded at the talent level.
I’m astounded when I hear Aretha Franklin or Judy Holliday.
I appreciate dudes who build things from scratch….I appreciate talent.
He’s a gifted song writer?
What is his musical talent?
I do not have to like the music to appreciate talent!
Ok. I was in the same boat. I didn't much like it, either.
It's okay to not like something; nothing's for everyone. But there's really no need to pretend your opinion is an immutable fact.
Since Johnny Cash was mentioned, I loved the commercial featuring the late, great, Johnny Cash’s cover of Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode.
Stop trying to tell people what to do shortstack. It's a midget move.
I watched the game with two music execs. They thought it was trash. Because it is. I've seen Kendrick Lamar at least 5x. He's never good.
Nothing will change until Jay Z is fired. They will only use Roc Nation artists which by and large, suck. Especially for a show meant to have broad appeal.
Dua Lipa would be awesome.
I never thought I would see the day when a rapper needed autotune. Bad enough for singers, but rappers? Good grief. The music industry is complete garbage.
Sadly it is. Modern rap is garbage. Most everyone thinks so except those that don't know better, children, and grown men the size of children apparently.
Maybe Trump can ban autotune via executive order? Make Music Great Again!
Huge hit. Lamar never should have done it. He doesn't have the stage presence or broad appeal
big enough for the moment. One giant diss track ain't it.
Like most modern talent, he's just a studio artist (backed by computers and autotune). Nothing more.
Nope. Seeing him live it's just one big jumbled mess. Doesn't even get girls moving.
Make Rap Great Again!
Please do yourself a favor and stop pretending to be somebody you aren’t. You have a fake profile pic on your Facebook too don’t you? Ashamed to show your face🤣🤣🤣
You know that I have you figured out your pathetic LIAR.
Sit down and shut the f*ck up!

When did we ever say we ‘Invented’ music and superstars?
Legitimately cite your sources here stoner?
What young person wouldn’t consider for example Thd Beatles and Elvis Presley music superstars?
Absurd statement by someone whining that he isn’t watching an act in their 70’s take the stage
Bac does enjoyable recaps that are good reads and everyone can have their taste in music but if you look at the songs he quotes in those recaps let’s just say it’s a far cry from Lamar…
You could throw Bon Jovi out there at 62 and every person in the entire stadium would be out of their seat singing to Livin on a prayer.
Then we’d be hearing where’s the diversity, why is the art form/cultural statement known as rap/hip hop omitted…
A really great Temptations/Four Tops cover band would have the entire stadium rocking 😊….real talent.
Get Stevie Wonder again!
My point is….EVERYONE would like it, EVERYONE is supposed to like it!

This Stevie Wonder?
Stevie Wonder Calls Kendrick Lamar "Extremely Talented" Says He Has "Real Concern For The People" Ahead Of Compton Rapper's Sophomore Album Release
Stevie Wonder recently spoke to GQ for their Legacy Project and brought up Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar when talking about his taste in contemporary music.
www.musictimes.com
He got a Pulitzer some years ago but its kinda like Obama getting the Peace Prize - "just because."
I grew-up on R&B and vast majority of those performers learned their skills from church choirs, bands etc.
That's a reason why black music was so good back then - and they weren't dying young as much as the rockers.
But rap has disconnected the music form the church traditions and roots.
Jay-Z is trying to make Beyonce into a country singer for a new market/awards.
I wouldn't care about that (I dont even like Country) but they are trying to say country music is really black music and acting like they are taking it back. Of course there is a wide tradition of black music in country but a lot of it came from Scotland, Ireland and Mexico (that music being influenced by German music).
JayBey riding in and planting their flag on country is like some red neck trying to say football should be declared white because they invented game and ran it in college for a century. But The Z-man bullied Grammys last year so they got the country Grammy but even her fans on Reddit say its not a great song by her. Goodell pandering to JayBey is why the SB was bad so I dont blame Kendrick who might be a good guy. I like Lil Wayne but dont want to listen to him
I understand your overall point here, but what exactly suggests that we’re in “an age of inclusion” right now? We’re far from it.
From 2015?This Stevie Wonder?

And? It's an opinion ... did it magically expire?
Feel free to provide something more recent that proves whatever point it is you think you'd like to make.
I didn't watch the halftime show and haven't commented on it Was it a reprise of his 2015 music?
