Super Bowl Halftime Show 2022

Agreed what an epic half time show. Dre and Snoop proper legends of my youth. Was never a big Eminem fan but he was also great.
 
Maaaan they are all getting old. Luckily I am staying the same age :p

I would have been a bit miffed if I was behind the stage though.
 
I really enjoyed this last night when I was watching the game, so much so I watched it again this morning. Dre looked like he was having a ton of fun as well which was good to see.
 
Not my thing really but I really enjoyed it.
One question though, whats with the blokes all seeming to constantly be grabbing hold of their willies? Some sort of OCD checking it's still there?
 
I like most of them but something just feels off with that show.

Feels like I'm watching my parents trying to act cool!

you can't seriously only now becoming aware of rappers grabbing their junk?? dirty birdies have been doing it for years!
 
Really enjoyed that, hit all the right buttons and a great production. Wasn't feeling Kendrick Lamar's section though.

He did feel out of place, I guess as he's a Compton rapper, Dre wanted him in?

I have a love/hate relationship with KL, he's a great lyricist but rarely enjoy his beats.

He definitely didn't look or sound very healthy hanging upside down :D
Other than that I thought it was great.

Took him the rest of the act to get his breath back from his batman moment.
 
Yeah, I don't think the hanging upside down did him any favours.

I was waiting for Snoop or Dre to start swearing to be honest which would have been epic considering the event. Probably in the contract I'd have thought.
 
You might recognise a tune or two from his Good Kid, M.A.A.D City album which I love, but not so much with his other content/albums.

 
Well I thought that was jolly good fun, thanks for posting I was wondering if we could watch it after the event :D

He hit much more mainstream (in a good way) with To Pimp a Butterfly which I think is a stunning album.
The album's immediate influence was felt as "a pantheon for racial empowerment", according to Butler, who also argued that the record helped create a respected space for conscious hip hop and "will be revered not just at the top of some list at the end of the year, but in the subconscious of music fans for decades to come".[98] Writing for Highsnobiety, Robert Blair said, "[To Pimp a Butterfly] is the crystallized moment in time where Kendrick became a generation's most potent artistic voice."[4] Uproxx journalist Aaron Williams said the album "proved that left-field, experimental rap can function in both the critical and commercial realms".[119] Jazz saxophonist Kamasi Washington said that the album "changed music, and we're still seeing the effects of it [...] [the album] meant that intellectually stimulating music doesn't have to be underground. It just didn't change the music. It changed the audience."[4] To Pimp a Butterfly was an influence on David Bowie's 2016 album Blackstar. As its producer Tony Visconti recalled, he and Bowie were "listening to a lot of Kendrick Lamar [...] we loved the fact Kendrick was so open-minded and he didn't do a straight-up hip-hop record. He threw everything on there, and that's exactly what we wanted to do."[120]

I also thought DAMN was damn ( :p ) good too. DNA and Humble are absolute bangers. And Kendrick became the first rapper to ever win the Pulitzer prize, for it.
 
Kendrick Lamar is amazing - To Pimp a Butterfly is (IMO) the greatest album of the 2010s.

I really enjoyed the halftime show but does reinforce the view that 90s hip hop is our generation's dad rock.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy blows it out of the water completely.
