It appears Kendrick Lamar has registered one of the most underwhelming halftime show performances in Super Bowl history.
The superstar rapper headlined the break during Sunday’s final game between the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs but, despite his burgeoning reputation, did not seem to be a hit with the fans.
The Compton native kicked the performance off with his 2024 hit “Squabble Up” with some assistance from Samuel L. Jackson and would later bring former label-mate SZA to the stage.
Still, it didn’t appear that he got it popping until he broke out “Not Like Us,” and social media would sound off, with many fans calling it the worst halftime performance ever.
“Kendrick Lamar put up a worse performance than the Chiefs in the first half,” our account admitted.
“That show was literally A** until the last 2 songs,” someone else agreed.
“I love Kendrick Lamar, but that was the worst Super Bowl Halftime show in recent memory. Unfortunately he let this Drake thing define him. There’s mustard on the hot dog, but no ketchup,” added a third.
“This Kendrick halftime show is the worst I’ve ever seen,” another user chimed in.
“Hate to tell everyone but this is one of the worst halftimes in a long time,” another comment read.
Kendrick Lamar Opened A Fresh Can Of Worms
Kendrick Lamar did what many were hoping he wouldn’t do by dropping the aforementioned diss track. And he would go even further, calling rival Drake out by name, all while wearing an “a minor” chain.
We can expect some controversy on the back of this.
Where the Chiefs are concerned, the game hasn’t been going very well either, as they were yet to get on the scoreboard and staring at a 34-0 deficit in the third quarter at the time of writing.
