No idea, but it would sure beat some of the have time shows in the last dozen years.

You just called Eminem, one of the greatest rappers of all time, the “token white guy.” That makes me chuckle. Good stuff!
This halftime show was not for your generation, for sure. Rap isn’t for everyone. That’s okay.

I knew who he was. And he was the only white guy there.
Quite amusing, considering I'm the same age as some of the singers there. You are right, rap isnt for everyone... but age has nothing to do with it.

Disagree. I think there is a clear line of demarcation based upon age when it comes to rap. That certainly doesn’t mean everyone over age X hates it and everyone under age X loves it. But more than any kind of music, rap has a clear line differentiating preference based upon age. And that’s okay!
I loved it. Critter did too, he’s just to darn stubborn to admit it because of the online persona he’s created over the years!

I can honestly say I enjoyed both the play offs and Super Bowl football this year. I can also honestly say I managed to block out both the commercials and half time show. Both were just background noise to me. I have no idea who advertised or performed.
Of course I can barely remember who was playing.

I can honestly say that I have never listen to any rap music and or songs. It just isn't for me, if you like it then go for it. I'm a old time country person who doesn't even like the new style country that most of the stations are playing. In my teenage years I was into heavy metal and a few other types of media but as I grew older I liked the old style songs a lot better than anything that was coming out.

My daughter was shocked when I pointed out Dr. Dre was nearing 60 years old. And Snoop is mid 50's....
The halftime show was terrible. I saw more butt cheeks during the halftime show than I saw last time I went to the beach. And, I'm sorry, Mary J Blige doesn't exactly have a butt cheek I want to see.
I get it with Dre and Snoop. They are LA icons - even if they both belong in prison.
What bugs me is this: Metallica is also from LA. They should have been there.

Although I pretty much did what Critter claimed he did during the halftime show, what little I saw seemed OK, I suppose. I guess I'm closer to "get off my lawn" age than Nilla, but I think he is right about demographics. Every 35-45ish person I have talked to loved the show, those before and after, not so much.
I thought the game itself was great and I was glad for a competitive, exciting contest.

I think the all star game is what they mean idk. I thought the half time show was good and I don’t listen to rap but those guys were the original OGs and every one knows those songs from decades ago unless you lived under a rock. Next year they should have IronMaiden
