Woke up and saw some coli brehs saying the performance was trash.
Just finished watching...must have been the same hating Crodies cause I thought it was great, especially considering it's the first time a lot of these songs were performed at the biggest stage.
Liked how the Samuel L parts transitioned the tracks.
NLU into TV Off was exactly how I imagined he would do it.

You see it, so many people just dont get it, in here talking about he should have performed 'Ab-Soul's outro'

I'm genuinely amused by the disappointment. Even my brother text me. Folk really thought he was going up there to sing bytch Don't Kill My Vibe and Swimming Pools.
Instead he set it off with an unreleased verse and did an album cut spiritual midway. fukk that imaginary setlist you had in your head.

"Drake didn't even have to be there, it was his performance!".
I can't fukkin believe this shyt
Drake is done. This isn't a victory for me, it is a victory for hip hop...
He should release the song j prince made him shut down about Pusha..and he should drop another one about everybody going at him right now..but of course he won't ...
Dudes time has passed...

Question, would that song he made with what's her face ...pretty red? Sexy red I think ..the bbl drizzy when he tried to flip it lmmfao... would that have been a better Superbowl performance?
On ks 107.5 in Denver Colorado, almost a year straight they've been playing not like us going strong non-stop lol ..I'm not sick of it all...I still listen to the radio here and there at work..
All I've been hearing is take care, coming home or whatever, and hotline Bling...
I have no overlaying issue with those songs, but, those 3 songs still play less than not like us..
Kendrick pretty much did the krs and pm dawn...
Just not physically...Kendrick tossed him off the stage and said get that weak shyt out of here

Anyone whose watched a Kendrick Lamar performance the last 10 years should have been prepared to expect the unexpected. This man has been known to premiere unreleased songs and verses on national tv appearances, incorporate theatrical stage production laced with cryptic messaging all wrapped up in a package that keeps people guessing and chatting for days on end. This is LITERALLY how we ended up getting Untitled Unmastered and some of his most iconic Grammy performances. The nikka was NEVER going to get up there and have a bunch of guests while performing songs he’d already done two years ago or rehashed at the Pop Up. Really in hindsight we Hip Hop heads on the Coli should’ve known he was going to go out of the box. Thats the performer he’s always been.
I loved it personally, except for his mic at the beginning being too low it was a pretty flawless performance from him. SZA outta be ashamed of herself for lip syncing her entire performance while Dot was rapping without even backing vocals 95% of his set. Dude danced, moved, and ran between set pieces rapping while switching up words and lyrics and not losing his flow ONCE. Thats a masterclass of performance artistry the likes of which I haven’t seen an MC do live since Black Thought almost 20 years ago. Kendrick deserves a MOUNTAIN of credit for that alone. My favorite parts were the Man in the Garden and Peakaboo segments and the cheeky shots at Drake before unleashing Not Like Us. Samuel L Jackson was also a nice touch and felt like a nod to his character in Spike Lee’s Chiraq film.
Overall I give it a 8.5/10. Without the mic issues in the beginning and if SZA would’ve actually TRIED to sing just a little I would’ve given it a 9. But as it stands Kendrick did his thing.
Dot need to quit playing and drop that snippet.
