I just watched the entire halftime show but didn't see this part at all. When did this air?
I just watched it on YouTube.
COUNTERPOINT - Kendrick Lamar is an American boy who grew up in the hood in Compton and is a self-made success, building much of that success on the penultimate song of the show, calling out Drake, a Canadian pedophile from a wealthy family. Was it ghetto? Yeah, a little. But no excessive 'twerking', profanities, and no satanic devil worship trash. No women dressed like abject prostitutes either. Patriotic callouts and colors. No B.S., no huffing and puffing he held his vocals well (yet the audio was bad in some parts). Plus, there was a Buick on stage.
Solid B.

It's a joke. The video is from South Africa a year or two ago, where a political candidate was at a rally, and was singing Kill the Boer. Of course calling for murdering whites during a political rally is a very extreme thing to do.
Anyway, the tweet is implying that the actual performance at the Super Bowl can be compared with this incident in South Africa.
Ah...ok. Honestly, I wouldn't put it past them to try to slip something like this in there. I doubt any leftist would care.
I appreciate this post and what you’re saying, but Kendrick Lamar felt like an odd choice from the start, given that the average Super Bowl viewer is likely a 40-year-old white male.
On top of that, he didn’t even perform his biggest hits, mostly sticking to newer material, which made it feel even more out of touch.
But does it even have to be analyzed that deeply? A musician that can't sing, can't dance and can't play any instruments is supposed to be a show? Who thinks this way?
My favorite show of all time was Prince but if it isn't someone's whose music I like I don't even bother to watch. Yesterday it was just on the background with my friends....
I was thinking about that halftime show the other day. At least if you are going to have some eccentric person out there, make it that kind of guy doing interesting stuff in the rain. That was the Colts Bears Super Bowl too, which was a pretty good one except for the weather.
Not if you were a Bears fan watching Lovie Smith have Rex Grossman airing the ball out in a monsoon
For any hockey fans, USA vs Canada final tonight in Boston. First game in Montreal the Canadian fans booed US anthem (triggered over Trump), the game started with 3 fights, lots of checking and USA won 3-1.
This game should be highly entertaining as well!
