Kendrick Lamar will perform at the Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show in New Orleans on Sunday, promising a “storytelling” experience. The 37-year-old rapper, who has won five Grammy Awards this year, said he aims to convey his passion and energy through music.
Lamar will be joined by singer SZA, with whom he’ll tour this summer. Despite his recent success, Lamar admitted that the chaos of preparation has prevented him and SZA from fully appreciating the significance of their collaboration. However, he praised her talent and honored to share the stage.
The rapper reflected on the rap genre’s often-overlooked art form status during a recent interview after winning five Grammys for his song “Not Like Us.” Lamar wants to remind people that rap is more than just a genre – it’s an actual art form deserving of recognition.
Lamar emphasized the importance of being present in the moment, saying he loves being locked into his current energy and perspective. He aims to share this experience with the world through his performance, which will be condensed from a 90-minute set list for his Big Steppers Tour.
