“Kendrick told the story of Black male unadulterated authenticity. The iconography alone was brilliant.

Black men in durags.
Black men in formation of the American flag.
Black men in dreads, and golds singing du wop.
Black men not presented in a safe lense.

Samuel L. Jackson AKA “Uncle Sam” (The Ring Master), it was at that moment, the characters were set. Samuel represents the “Safe, Performative, Docile” negro. He’s pleading with him to make white America comfortable. Kendrick is clearly the antithesis of that.

Kendrick is clearly in a defiant mood and performs squabble up.

Uncle Sam responds by screaming at him to “Stop being so loud and ghetto!”

Kendrick responds by playing “Humble”
‘Be humble, sit down’. It’s noticeable that Black men are the American flag as he performs this acquiescence.

Then he remembers himself plays “DNA”.
“Royalty & Loyalty in my DNA”

This is when the crowd lights up with the message “Warning, wrong way”

Then he plays Euphoria. Cries out… “I’m reaping what I sow, okay?!!”

Transitioning into “Man in the Garden” where he recites how he deserves it all….the success and the criticism that comes with it. In the midst of it all trying to remain authentic.….hence why Samuel L. Jackson says….

“Oh I see you brought your Homeboys with you. Score keeper deduct one life!”

K Dot then leans into album favorite Peakaboo…I think it’s important to note the line that embodies that song “What they talking about, they talking about nuthin…”. His defiance is evident, even as he realizes the fakeness of it all.

At this point he ushers in SZA and embarks on what Uncle Sam lauds him for performing nice and easy “This is what America wants to see….”

Kendrick smiles in the camera and plays the controversial song that garnered him acclaim….with Record & Song of the year….so the question is….isn’t this what America wanted?!?

Not Like Us is performed. Including the verse that has ruined Drake’s entire life.

He then ends with TV off. With the message being

“Game Over”

Essentially telling us the ‘Game’ that he was expected to play…is over….he didn’t do what was expected…and yet he sort of did.

He literally told us before NLU was performed that “This is Bigger than the music” and I have people on the timeline arguing about the music.

Truth be told. This performance may not be everyone’s cup of tea. That’s okay. I believe a message was sent to make people, particularly white America uncomfortable. Not an easily digestible show.

He was reclaiming the idea of Black male identity on a white stage. He did that tenfold. In the face of Uncle Sam, in the face of the sitting President who attempted to use Black men to divide our race-in which he was mildly successful in that. Kendrick addressed this with only a subtle gesture of someone who thinks before he speaks.

I appreciate a show that required me to focus in and peel back what was being done.

He told you that the revolution will be televised. You picked the right time. But the wrong guy. He meant that.

Special shout out to Serena Williams who made a special appearance, crip walking- an obvious nod to when she did this after a victory and was immediately lambasted by media for being “To Ghetto, Too Black”. Obviously Serena being from the same neighborhood of Kendrick and also shot at Drake.”

Biggest problem was trying to understand what he was even saying. And the CC couldn’t keep up with him so the message and the symbolism didn’t match up.

I’m guessing Trump wasn’t pleased and next year we’ll have Carrie Underwood performing.

My bet is on Adriana Grande. She's white but has widespread popularity.

I want Nicki Minaj but I don't think that will happen. Cardi B already said no. P!nk and Adele also said no.

Miley Cyrus would be great and has wide appeal.

My 70 old parents don't watch much football and don't know anything about modern music but they thoroughly enjoyed Lady Gaga's halftime show a few years back. Ever since then, their reactions are pretty much wtf am I watching. And no, they are not white.

Did they find the commercials with bad words appealing? I was not happy to hear cursing during the ads. I didn’t expect it so I couldn’t mute it in time so my kids heard the words

The rap? Unless you know the words how would you have been able to follow? I didn’t hear any bad words for that performance. I had already sent my kids to bed anyway but I didn’t hear any bad words in the rapper’s performance …but I did hear cursing on the commercials while my kids were watching…I wish people were more upset about that then a rapper reciting words that they
couldn’t understand. The outrage is interesting and backwards in my opinion.

Love the way Kendrick’s music usually includes the “N” word. Great message for my kids; just great.

Really irrelevant he scrubbed the Superbowl show of the “N” word last night because every tween and teen in America is looking up his N-word songs on YouTube this morning.

Again - great message, NFL.

I guarantee your kids hear that word every day without having to look up KL lyrics. Unclutch.

True. But if you don’t want non-POC to use it then don’t use it yourself. Make it disappear from everyone’s vocabulary.

No, it’s very easy to explain to white kids that this is not our word to use. You don’t get to police when and how black people use it.

Then don’t police when and how white people use it.

NP. Please stop being obtuse Pp. You clearly understand why it’s not okay for others to use the word. The meaning is completely different. Some women
call each other b’s in an endearing way but would be up in arms if a man called them one. It’s not okay. Just leave it alone.

Pretty sure in their songs it’s not used in an endearing way.

No one said it was endearing PP. I hate the n word and it doesn’t matter who uses it, but it’s obviously more acceptable for blacks to use it than anyone else.

Let’s just agree the “N” word (along with degrading women) is not okay for any group, instead of giving rappers a blanket-pass on hate-speech.

Why not?

N is our word. We took it back. Most black people I know use it occasionally. I am very well educated and use it at home. You can't have that word. You can't use it and you can't decide whether it's appropriate for me to use.

If white people didn’t already have the money and success, they wouldn’t have bought slaves.

Wut? You sound stupid.

My gay son and his friends all use the F word with each other only. My 80s and 90s younger self cringes hard in pain, but it is fine for them to use the word and take the power of it back.

Not everything is "fair" and that is okay.

I didn’t really know who KL is and couldn’t understand anything he said last night. That said, I could tell it was something deeper than the usual music/hump the stage fest. The imagery was compelling and the dancers were really good. I also loved that the women wore clothes and it wasn’t sexual. As soon as I saw SLJ, I realized KL was making a huge social and political commentary. I’ve been reading about it today and I think it was a really powerful show. Kudos to him.

But you do realize that any use of crass Or derogatory language typically prompts judgment, right? It’s rather low-class to use certain language, and people will judge you. And certain settings call for everyone to conduct themselves with a modicum of respect.

I curse at home when I’m frustrated. I’d never curse in public…particularly in front of an audience.
