SHOCK: Kendrick Lamar will perform ‘Not Like Us’ at the Super Bowl halftime show but won’t be paid for it and the backlash that followed…see more

Kendrick Lamar promised he’d tell some stories and performed the song everyone has been talking about during the Super Bowl halftime show.

Actor Samuel L. Jackson opened up the set dressed in an Uncle Sam ensemble before Lamar went into performing his hits, including “Squabble Up,” “Humble,” “DNA” and “Peakaboo.”

He also teased viewers regarding his song “Not Like Us.”

“I want to perform their favorite song, but you know they love to sue,” Lamar said.

The song is part of a viral-rap battle that occurred between Lamar and Drake last year that has led to a complicated legal case.

Instead, Lamar was next joined by SZA for their songs “Luther” and “All the Stars.”

Lamar then gave the people what they wanted by performing what has been his biggest hit yet, “Not Like Us,” though he didn’t say the word “pedophile” in what has been a controversial lyric aimed at Drake.

The audience offered Lamar an assist by singing the “A Minor” line that has become so famous.

Tennis icon Serena Williams also helped out when she showed up to dance a bit, representing for Compton, California, which is where both she and Lamar proudly rose from to find success in their respective careers.

Lamar was also joined by a crowd of professional dancers and cut a few steps himself, all while flowing with his lyrics. Sunday marked his second time performing at the Super Bowl as he was part of the halftime show during Super Bowl LVI, which was held in Los Angeles in 2022 and was a celebration of hip-hop music with an all-star set that included Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent, Eminem and more.

Lamar cleverly closed Sunday night’s performance with “TV Off.”

The spotlight was on Lamar as Sunday’s game approached, coming one week after the artist won five Grammy Awards, including song and record of the year for his hit, “Not Like Us.”

There was much speculation about Lamar’s planned performance from whether he would perform his controversial diss track, or if he would be joined by Taylor Swift as a special guest given that she is present to support her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce. Swift and Lamar collaborated on her 2014 song “Bad Blood.”

Ahead of the game, SZA dropped four new songs as part of her “Lana” deluxe edition. She and Lamar are scheduled to go on tour together in April.

As for those who wondered if Drake would be in the house for the Super Bowl, he was reportedly in Melbourne, Australia, for a concert.
