Dr. Dre, Snoop, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and one of my all time faves that doesn't get enough love...Mary J. Blige. I live in LA, I have been a big fan of every artist that hit that stage last year. They represent the greatness of hip hop unlike a lot of the garbage being put out today in rap music. For example, the Grammy's 50th anniversary of the birth of hip hop tribute this year was a stark reminder to the golden years of hip hop and how the new generation of rap falls short in comparison. I am not just a fan of hip hop though (a lot of rap these days absolutely blows by the way). love all kinds of music, even classic rock, hard rock, etc. Just not a fan of Country. My absolute favorite band right now is St. Paul and the Broken Bones, even got married to one of their songs. Paul Janeway may be the best male vocalist in all of music and their live show is one of the best I have even seen and I have seen them several times now. A simple yes would have sufficed. Glad you enjoyed it so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Frankish Reich Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Did they book Rihanna NOT knowing she is pregnant? I had no problem with the halftime show. Not really my thing, but my daughter loves her (tried to make her an indie girl and failed miserably), so it was what it was. But it wasn’t what she (or I) would’ve expected of a Rihanna performance. Nobody paid to see it, but if they had it would’ve been kind of false advertising. The kids love the dancing, the wardrobe changes, all that glitz. This was like Rihanna in an oversized red jumpsuit surround by Squid Game type unenergetic dancers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) I assume they decided they wanted a "stripped down" type of show and let Rihanna be the singular focus. But I dunno if the Super Bowl is the spot for that kind of show. People expect theatrics from the halftime show. I understand she's pregnant so clearly she's not going to be doing backflips off the stage. And as I understood it they wanted the pregnancy reveal to be the big takeaway moment. All that said, I mean, dang, we couldn't get some cool lights? A laser show? Drones creating fun imagery above the stadium? Some stunts? Maybe some pyro aside from the few fireworks they did outside the stadium? Maybe even a wardrobe change? Speaking of wardrobe, the decision to have all the dancers look like hyperactive little spermies in sunglasses sure was an interesting one. The dance choreography was also quite peculiar. I like a good handful of her tunes so the music was fine it just was real bland in terms of show.

dpberr Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 They should try a non-music halftime show. I think the music acts are tired. 1. Magician 2. Comedy 3....Mime (always a hit) 4. NFL makes a 15 minute film like BMW Films has done with "The Hire" series 5. Airshow 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next year, I'd like to see them go back to the 90s performance art/theatre shows with a rat-packed dedication to old Vegas. Won't happen. Probably be Adele since she's there for a residency anyway.

The Firebaugh Kid Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 It’s very tough for one person to carry a show alone. Let alone while mostly lip-synching over prerecorded tracks and having no “live” instruments.It lacked energy and creativity, she should have had a couple guests come out as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like nails going down a black board to me… she had no band playing and they were piping the music through the speakers…. Looked like a phony act to me…. Would have rather seen Def Leppard or something…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point of the show is that 90% of those watching the show have never seen these performers live so it is about the performance and putting.on a show. The chores and whole look was boring. However listening to these entertainment shows all are fawning. Ot was very boring and I'm fine with her music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
