It was California love at the 2022 Super Bowl event.
Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige delivered an electrifying performance at the Pepsi Super Bowl LVI halftime show at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif. On Sunday night (Feb. 13). The powerhouse event marked the first time the five artists have performed on stage together.
According to the NFL, Dre, Snoop, Em, Kendrick and Mary have released a total of 22 No. 1 Billboard albums and have won 44 combined Grammy Awards. K-Dot is probably the first Pulitzer-Prize winning artist to ever grace the Super Bowl halftime stage. Statistics aside, the five mega artists formed like Voltron and presented an unforgettable performance.
All eyes were on Snoop as he kicked off things with a PG-rated version of his classic hit, “The Next Episode.” Next, he was joined by Dre for a rendition of “California Love.” 50 Cent then made a surprise appearance and performed “In Da Club.”
Mary J. Blige kicked off her set with her 2001 anthemic hit “Family Affair,” which Dr. Dre produced and became the R&B singer’s first No. 1 hit single on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. She followed that up with “No More Drama.” Kendrick then graced the field and delivered a fantastic performance of his song “Alright,” preluded with “m.A.A.d. City.” The Compton rhymer’s set was the most anticipated since he’s been out of the spotlight for nearly half a decade. It’s always good to see him back and rocking the mic.
Eminem had the crowd waving their hands back and forth as he rapped his Oscar-winning track “Lose Yourself” from the 8 Mile soundtrack. Dre and Snoop finished things off with a performance of “Still D.R.E.”
