BEST SUPERBOWL HALFTIME SHOW EVER? ONE OF THE BEST MOMENTS FOR HIP HOP! 

Its cool how Anderson Paak is a dope artist in his own right and he was down to hit the drums for the squad.

I love how Anderson Paak was just happy to be there he’s smiling and singing along with Em hahaha

This is a huge moment for kendrick He is literally performing in the super ball with 3 of his top 5, that's how u achieve your dream

My fave part is during Lose Yourself and everyone is vibing. It’s about the collective. Dre on the boards, Em rapping one of the most motivational songs ever, Anderson Paak on the drums… musicians doing their talent. You see the whole thing vibing. 50 and Mary vibing on the couch.

He didn’t just get a grammy for Lose Yourself, he won a whole oscar for it

Kendrick’s intro was just insane. Everyone has their legacy established and all but Kendrick just exemplifies young raw POWER in his talent

Interestingly enough, Eminem wrote AND produced this anthem for the ages. The whole planet rocks with this track. It's untouchable.

“It’s about how it’s moving you” love that! Loved Kendrick and all the respect he paid to all the OGs. The Whole thing was just so amazingly crafted!

I'm 71 and have watch all of the Superbowl's and there have been some great shows, but I have NEVER seen anything like this one. The set, the live music, the dancers and the performers were all amazing. This has to go down as one of the best --if not THE BEST show ever. I am so glad I livid to see it .

Pretty great. No bad parts. Feels like everyone brought an element special to them. Kendrick brought the performance. Mary brought the soul. 50 brought the shock (unannounced) and awe (one of the biggest bangers ever), Em brought the energy, Snoop brought hella swagger, and Dre was the glue; the mastermind behind it all. It’s like a hip hop Voltron, with Dre as the head. Lots of winners here, but coming with a solid performance like he did I think you have to acknowledge this day belonged to Dre.

When the beat came in for Em the crowd went nuts compared to the rest. I also thought Mary J fit in just fine. She's fire.

"Lose Yourself" won the Academy Award for Best Original Song, making it the first hip hop song to receive the award, and also won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Song and Best Rap Solo Performance.

I’m glad we can all give Dre his flowers while he’s here. Everything he’s done, he’s a legend, this whole performance was amazing

The transition from Kendrick to Eminem was dope as fuk

Mary is the queen of hip hop and R&B😂 so I think that she fits perfectly.

I was excited as hell for Em but I agree Kendricks performance was insane and the best one to look at he killed it!

Yeah, Mary wasn't signed to Dre but Dre produced some of her hits. I believe Dr. Dre was highlighting some of his hits. I think everybody fits perfectly.

The transition to Mary J. Blige's “Family Affair” fit in perfectly. Dre produced those beats so it made sense why Mary would fit into the show. I thought it was a nice Hip Hop/R&B-ish transition.

I think the Mary J "No more Drama" was fitting for all of the B.S. that's been going on in the world and thought that was a great tie in. Great performances by all! It was one of my favorites!!

Dude, the whole thing was an anthology of survival for the past 35 years. That's how Mary fits.

I'm 48 years old and I acted a damn fool last night!!!! It was so EPIC and the homage to Tupac with California Love and Dre playing I Ain't Mad at Cha on the piano. Just GENIUS!!!!

Agree with you about the entire perfromance, and Em has an Oscar for Lose Yourself. When you paused about the "Avengers of Hip Hop", Kendrick and 50 were saluting eachother

I thought everyone blew it out of the park, no doubt. But at the end of the day, you have to give it to Dre because you have to add his overall production of the entire show to his performance. And the production- sound and set quality- won the show

Mary J was known as the queen of hip hop/r&b! She was the first r&b artist with a hip hop energy ❤️ Edit: Also, for me, Kendrick killed it! I was hype!

You can't overlook Mary J's impact on hip hop even though she's not a rapper. Not only does she have classic records with Dre, but that Mary J/Method Man song is a classic record. She fits into this show perfectly

It’s Snoop wearing a blue crip suit after being told not to have his flag . Eminem kneeling even after being told not to , and Anderson Paak on the drums just happy to be there 😂😂. Great just great !

Just an FYI, this was more a tribute to Dre more than a LA Hip Hop Halftime performance, Dre did produce the No More Drama Mary J album including Family Affair and it just so happened to be one of the top sellers so it made perfect sense for her to be there.

The Dre & Snoop (and 2Pac) parts hit the hardest for me. Two parts in particular: when California Love dropped and then at the end when Dre started playin' the lead-in to Still D.R.E. Goosebumps for both of those. Also, I gotta say, I've re-watched this performance like 30 times now. I've never done that for any of the previous ones. These guys are such legends.

She performed the songs that Dre wrote and produced for her. That's why they had her

Kendrick’s performance was so cool. I loved the aesthetics he brought. And of course Eminem brought the electricity.

Really made me emotional not gonna lie 😭🤣 the set was crazy and the transitions as well, and everyone killed it. When Dre played Ain’t Mad At Cha I almost thought Pac would show up

Mary performing No More Drama was perfect after EVERYTHING that Dr. Dre has been through. You gotta look at the whole picture man! This was lowkey a tribute to him and who he has influenced over his career.

Throughout the whole performance anytime Dre's face was on the screen I was struck with how incredibly proud he must feel how validating after all of these years to be up on that stage performing with artist that we might not have ever seen if not for him. Very moved by how emotional it made me feel for him. But then I got to thinking that it was even more monumental than what I was even giving it credit for because of his brain aneurysm that he suffered from last january. Just a little over a year ago and for him to have survived that and still be here on this Earth and to be able to give that performance in LA is phenomenal and I think by most people's standards this will go down as the greatest show.

I said Kendrick had the most visually attractive performance, but when I watched other views of the halftime show and they showed the celebs and audience members, they were going nuts when they heard that guitar for Em cut on! They rapped this song like they created it! 🤣🤣

I haven’t ever gone out of my way to listen to Mary J Blige before but she stood out to me as one of the strongest performances of all the artists. She held it down for sure. Sometimes the right “fit” isn’t the one who performance aligns with those others, sometimes it’s a business decision based on what the artist is like to work with. And the history the artists have had throughout time and their individual experiences on their path. I don’t know if missy or anyone else could have brought the Soul like Mary J did.

What impresses me the most about Eminem is how when he performs live, he sounds nearly exactly like he does on the record. Even now at his age for the most part, he doesn't get out of breath and keeps the flow and speed of the original tracks. A lot of these performers as they get older can't keep the same speed as they used to, they get out of breath easier, pause during lyrics to breath, let the crowd sing parts so they can catch a breath, etc. He doesn't and it's so impressive

Bruh...this was an intense halftime! It's all I wanted to see. I went to sleep right after the halftime. It took a lot of energy out of me. Lmao

this whole show stole my heart... my childhood all wrapped into one. anderson .paak having the damn time of his life drumming for the goat too! that smile is so infectious! 🔥

I'm all the way from the UK and seeing them all together up there sent shock waves through heart and soul. It's like seeing God's man.

I think Dre did the best! To think we almost lost him a couple years ago. And now he is on the Super Bowl Halftime Show! Dope!

Iconic moment for all, and especially for the 80's/90's audience 🔥🔥🔥 Imagine if Mary had dropped 'Real Love' though, that would've been nostalgia insanity!. She's still got it 😍

Bro you put into words so well what I thought... kdot definitely had a "better performance" but Ems moved me more and had me more hyped

The most chills I’ve ever had in my life is when Dre takes the mic off the piano and walks the hallway while the beat rocks and snoop says y’all make some noise for dr Dre … it’s passed chills I even teared up

Dre rocking to Em with the finger in the air gave me chills

Mary definitely fit in this performance bro she brought the soul to the show and she's definitely the queen of hip hop. So many classics and amazing features plus a long history with Dre, I was looking forward to her performance and she delivered

Nah, Kendrick's opening was too 🔥🔥 He had the choreo, the breath control, stage presence, energy, and let's overlook all the subtle symbolism... Masterful performance 🙌🏾 But they *ALL* understood the assignment and represented for the culture most appropriately👌🏾This is definitely one for the books 💯

Interestingly probably Eminem's biggest live performance event ever Him being actually very nervous for once is something incredible to witness

Dre looks so happy in this show :) glad he's doing well the whole show was awesome

One of the most iconic moments, was after Em took a knee, knowing the potential backlash and criticism and directly after Dre played I ain't mad at ya on the piano. I almost heard Pac saying I ain't mad at ya, got nothing but love for ya, do your thing. I literally got cold chills. 💯💯💯 Amazing performance by all, big ups to The mastermind (Dre)

Mary J is the 1st R and B singer to sing to beats. She's part of the culture.

I’m a big Em fan, but Kendrick took the show to a whole different level.

Definitely agree with you that there was a whole VIBE to it all…that even surpassed the technicalities of the performances. Every time I watch this performance I cry like a baby because the memories that stem from these songs are a summation of my childhood and teenage years. I instantly go back to a time when I was so happy and all was right in the world. You hear that Em intro and the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. This was sensational and I honestly don’t think it could ever be replicated by another group of artists.🔥🔥🔥

Mary is the queen of hip hop soul and I’m glad she was included in this history making performance.

Best performance was EM because the crowd were into the song but the best performer was Kendrick because of the song, energy and he engaged in the choreography more. But the most one that affected me was with Dre and Snoop. BTW when DRE sat on the piano and played the melody of "I ain't mad at cha" I almost cried

Thats transition from Kendrick and Em was legendary though. Straight fire 🔥

Your comparison to the GOATS OF MUSIC TO THE MCU UNIVERSE WAS PHENOMENAL! I never thought of it like that, best description of this performance of heard to date! Love this

Brought me back to my teen years. The GREATEST HALFTIME SHOW ive EVER seen . 🔥🔥🔥

im Brazilian and I have to say Eminem is huge, got goosebumps when I heard that sample !!!

This is easily top 5 halftime shows, my personal favorite just cuz of what it represents and the amount of legends up there, seeing Snoop up there throwing up his set and c walking just vibing out was great. Historic moment for the culture and music in general, I wasn't even alive for Dre/Snoop like that and was a little ass kid during the Em/50/Mary eras but ik all their music so this meant a lot to me as a hip hop and R&B head

So disrespectful what you said about Mary. Obviously you know NOTHING of her connection to Dre, or her contribution to R&B. She more than deserves to be on that stage.

My reaction totally snuck up on me. I got legit emotional during Em’s performance. To know how much it meant to him (and I think his taking a knee could be partially in solidarity with Kaepernick and BLM, but also I think he was honestly overwhelmed with how much this moment meant). The grind of 30+ years. It’s lame to say but it was a proud moment 🥺

Being from LA this was soooo epic for the city and for LA culture. The dancers crip walking on national television is still mind blowing. Lol….. I loved everything about this halftime show.

Dre and Snoop made this special to me.... so cool to see them on such a big stage again

They all did a great job. Mary poured her heart out . K-dot brought that energy , snoop and Dre got us ready and hype , 50 shocked and awed and Em got us out of our seats and ready to mosh everything but cut it shorty bc he looked out for Fif and gave him his second spot .

You can literally hear it in the crowd! Its the Eminem stage effect, there is always a 5 second delay because the crowd screams so loud.

Mary touched a brother’s soul no lie, when no more pain came on! On my life I was gassed! I think it’s more of a message than just the performance especially “no more pain”

The whole theme of the halftime show was getting over all the shii we've been through this year. Reliving the past to escape the present, even if it's just for a moment. This halftime show was banging and Dr. Dre's production helped with that.

Great review, as usual ❤️ Best halftime show I’ve ever seen. Took me back to my early high school days, the good old days. I wish I had realized I was living my good ol’ days back then. It was 50 Cent for me….I’m a fan of each icon there, but, omg I love me some 50 Cent. I was so excited to see him like he was making In da club video again, I squealed like the fan girl I am. Snoop Dogg’s blue suit displayed the absolute best diplomacy I’ve seen lately, and I LOVED it! *diplomacy~ telling someone to go directly to hell in such a way they look forward to the trip 😂 Awesome! Everything about the show was awesome.

My favorite part of this whole performance was seeing Dre smile so much, I’m glad he’s getting his 💐💐💐 now. We’ve lost too many legends and we almost lost Dre so it was just awesome to see him here feeling the love with his Day 1s (almost)

The sound and production crew did an awesome job sorting that out. Sound wasn't lost in that huge stadium or behind the roaring crowd.

Kendrick killed that shit. Choreography was nutty too

Love how the stage floor was the map of Compton and the stage itself looks just like Dre's lab/ studio!! 🔥🎤🔥

Kendrick had the best performance. His “dancers” were on point. Still surprised no one tripped coming out the boxes

Kendrick killed it, that opening was wild. Eminem was just a banger of a song.

50 year old white dude here who thought this was the best , most entertaining halftime show I’ve ever seen. Never really heard Kendrick, but he killed it!

Eminem doesn’t even have a tool box, he’s got the whole fucking hardware shop

The thing that I latched on to the most for some reason, was watching Eminem sing along to Still D.R.E on the side, just enjoying his time. Killer show.

Dre and Snoop are having so much fun on that stage!!! They killed it🔥🔥

Yow bro you ain't wrong with the Avengers labeling. This was an iconic moment for Hip hop. We never saw a dynamic moment with some of the best MC line up. It was str8 🔥🔥🔥

That poll you showed of who people thought did the best honestly shocked me. I love Eminem, but Kendrick Lamar absolutely blew everyone else out of the water in my opinion

And the thing is that they actually sang to the crowd, like a proper concert rather than singing it to the cameras as majority of the halftime shows!!!! What a freakin performance!!🔥🙌🐐🔥🙌

I love how the stadium goes absolutely CRAZY for Eminem

Mary is the queen of Hip Hop soul, shut up and enjoy it. She killed it.

I don’t know which part I enjoyed the most watching Em rap, or the pure joy on Anderson’s face while drumming. ❤️

Prince's performance is my personal #1, but this one was the funnest and hypest. Like this was the absolute, unequivocal spirit of fun and hype, and it gets better each time I've watched it. Just got me grinning and wavy the entire time 🤩

I LOVE em. I'm a huge Stan. But Kendrick took this imo. He KILLED it.

“That’s like the avengers up there” FACTS lol

This was so good , I don’t know who will be able to beat this performance

Mary is the Queen of Hip Hop soul, it definitely made sense..it fit perfectly imo

i’m a 46 y.o. woman who has been a fan of all these artists since their day 1s, from back when Dre was all baby-faced in NWA, and i 100% agree with you on Kendrick’s performance. he put on a hell of a show in a very short time. yeah, Em and them do have that longevity and nostalgia factor that’ll take you way back, and they were awesome… but this proved they’re definitely passing the torch to the right dude 💜

Snoop taught the whole world to crypt walk! Lol! So dope! 💯🔥🔥🔥 The best one ever! Em lit the crowd up! 🔥🔥💯💯

It was a display of Dr. Dre's hits...the songs Dre produced were her biggest commercial hits. She earned a place on that stage respectfully.

I don't typically listen to a lot of rap or hip-hop, but I thought this was absolutely one of the best half-time shows. I loved the set, the production, the dancing, the music, and the energy these superstars brought to the stage. We had so much fun watching it in my house!

This was legendary. We witnessed Legends go their legendary stuff. This is what a halftime show is and the NFL needs to give us more halftime shows like this.

I am not a big fan of hip-hop or anything but I have to agree with you this is by far my favorite super bowl halftime show. Very amazing and great job they all did. I was dancing too it all :)

I was happiest just to see and hear Dr. D.R.E. alive and well

I wish they got ‘Em to do Till i Collapse, over Mary’s 2nd song since it was the Super Bowl and a motivational song for the players. Would of been fire 🔥🔥

Mary fit perfectly, all songs performed were produced, written and or co-written by Dr Dre that's why he invited these artists, an amazing line up, visually stunning, this night belonged to hip hop period.

I totally agree with you that Kendrick had the best performance!!! His timing, rapping and choreography was spot on!!! They were all Fire!!! Love me some snoop and Dre too!!

He won an Academy, Grammy, Critics' Choice, and MTV Music Award for Best Video. So, yeah, his song his well known around the world!
