Grammy Award-winning artist Kendrick Lamar is set to headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Feb. 9, 2025 on FOX.
Kendrick Lamar will join a storied list of Super Bowl halftime performers, including a wealth of talented acts to perform in New Orleans. An artist who made his biggest headlines this year by dicing into conflict, not everyone is happy that he landed the gig.
Jay-Z has had an interesting relationship with Lil Wayne and Drake, which has stemmed over the last 20 years.
Initially, Weezy F. Baby considered Jay his idol and biggest inspiration - and almost signed to Def Jam and Rocnation / Roc-a-fella Records (Jay-Z's label) - before Birdman put a stop to it. Jay-Z mentioned this in a 2013 interview on The Breakfast Club with Charlemagne.

Kendrick Lamar‘s “Not Like Us” diss track is eligible for GRAMMY nominations said Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr..
Kendrick Lamar’s smash single “Not Like Us” could potentially net the rap star another Grammy, as the song is likely to be up for consideration ahead of next year’s award show.
He shocked the crowd by performing the chart-topping diss “Not Like Us” five times in a row, often letting the crowd take over, inviting an arena of thousands to shout lyrics that accuse Drake of being a “certified pedophile” and “colonizer.”
As the dust begins to settle on the hip-hop civil war, it seems like the real damage is coming into focus. While no blood was spilled, It’s safe to say that things haven't been this ugly in a rap beef since the days of Biggie and Pac, with Kendrick Lamar basically dissecting every aspect of Drake’s identity. But, there’s also collateral damage to what’s been said.
Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly protest anthem “Alright” came in at No. 1 on the ranking, while Cardi’s diamond-certified “Bodak Yellow” followed closely behind in second place. Drake‘s “God’s Plan,” Lil Uzi Vert‘s “XO Tour Llif3” and Future‘s “March Madness” rounded out the top five.
Joell Ortiz, Bodega Bamz, and Nitty Scott came together in 2016 to form the supergroup No Panty. During their sit-down with DJ Vlad, the three discussed the effort that goes into making timeless music. They responded to Michael Jackson's reflection on Thriller, where the late music icon said he wasn't surprised at the classic album's impact due to the care that was put into crafting it.
Drake has finally released the CDQ version of his response to Kendrick Lamar and others on streaming services.
In the days leading up to the formal release, Drake has been trying to get Kendrick to respond by making numerous shady posts about him and his team. The pgLang co-founder has yet to acknowledge the diss track.
J. Cole has fired back at Kendrick Lamar's diss on his new song '7 Minute Drill,' including a surprise song off the new album 'Might Delete Later.'
Back in the early 2010s no one would believe T.D.E by now wouldn’t be the top rap label in Hip Hop. They had a roster of hungry, young and capable talent, and what made it even more special was they weren’t some gimmicky rappers surviving of one popular song, or social media plant famous for a Tik Tok dance or one hit wonder that disappeared after a failed debut album.
Fresh from the release of his 11th studio album “INSANO”, Kid Cudi invites Zane Lowe into his home to discuss the project, his retirement from music, relationship with Ye, and more.
On Sunday (Sep. 24), the R&B icon announced that he’ll be headlining Apple Music’s halftime show for Super Bowl LVIII. In addition, he revealed the title of his long-awaited album, Coming Home, and its release date of February 11, 2024.
Super Bowl LVIII will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, which is where Usher currently holds a residency until the end of the year.
The Wrap Up Magazine is back with another round of Celebrity Match Ups. This time they return with a versus between Kendrick Lamar and J.Cole. Who would you pick as the best artist?
While the remix sticks to its original dance beat, it quickly goes into Kendrick Lamar's verse a few seconds in, which includes an ode to the Beyhive and artificial intelligence.
Kendrick Lamar now holds the distinct honor of the highest-grossing rap tour of all-time. Lamar has taken the top spot with his run of The Big Steppers tour, which supported his Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers album. Baby Keem and Tanna Leone supported the run of shows.
Kendrick Lamar has won the 2023 Grammy Award for Best Rap Album with Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers. The rapper took home the award over fellow nominees Pusha T (It’s Almost Dry), Jack Harlow (Come Home the Kids Miss You), Future (I Never Liked You), and DJ Khaled (God Did). Cardi B presented the Grammy Award to Kendrick Lamar.
Drake, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar were three of the best-selling rappers of the 2010s. They released their debut albums in succession (2010, 2011, and 2012), and the age difference between the iconic emcees is only two years. Each of the thought-provoking recording artists has Grammy awards on their resume, with legions of fans who will vouch for their superiority as lyricists.
However, when it comes to the writers and editors at the New York Times, they have determined that Kendrick Lamar reigns supreme, which is an accomplishment considering that media outlets on the East Coast, whether they're hip-hop based, pop culture magazines or daily newspapers, have historically heaped such praise on rappers in their region, for the most part.
While speaking to DJ Akademiks, Hit-Boy spoke about why he hasn’t worked with other west coast artists and wondered why. “The music s**t is weird,” said the producer while speaking about Roddy Ricch.
“The first beat I ever played n***as, the first song we ever did within 10 minutes of knowing each other, won a Grammy. How the f**k have we not locked in on more music. I don’t get it. Maybe it’s not for me to get,” Hit-Boy said of the past work.
