Super Bowl

Super Bowl 56 is just a few days and the world will gear up for the biggest game in football. Who will be performing in the much anticipated half-time show.

Super Bowl 56 will take place this Sunday. The Joe Burrow Bengals had an incredible Cinderella run to make it to the Bowl for the first time since 1988 after beating reigning AFC Champs Kansas City Chiefs.

The LA Rams beat World Champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers and then the San Francisco 49ers to make their 2nd championship game in 4 years after going all in to win now.

Who will perform at the Super Bowl Half Time Show?

Hip-Hop Stars led by N.W.A Rapper and producer Dr. Dre will headline the big show this weekend. Other Rap stars like Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg, along with the “Queen of Hip-Hop Soul” Mary J. Blige, are joining Dre for the performance.

“The opportunity to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show, and to do it in my own backyard, will be one of the biggest thrills of my career,” Dr. Dre, who grew up in Compton, said in a statement when the headliners were first announced. It will be an “unforgettable cultural moment,” he added.

Snoop Dogg said in an interview with The Associated Press that the opportunity to perform at the Championship Game is important for the legacy of hip-hop culture.

“I’m still thinking I’m in a dream because I can’t believe that they will let a real hip-hop artist grace the stage in an NFL Super Bowl,” he said. “We’re just going to wait for that moment and put something together that’s spectacular, and do what we’re known for doing and add on to the legacy.”

Who will perform the National Anthem at Super Bowl 56

The National Anthem at Super Bowl LVI will be performed by Grammy-nominated Country Artist Mickey Guyton.

“Look at God,” Guyton wrote on Twitter after the NFL announced the lineup in early February. “I am shook, I am grateful, I am praise dancing…So excited to be singing the national anthem at #SBLVI.”

Guyton has received four Grammy nominations, including one for Best Country Solo Performance for her 2020 autobiographical ballad “Black Like Me,” making her the very first African American female musician to receive a country nomination.

The national anthem will be preceded by a performance of “America the Beautiful” by six-time Grammy-nominated artist Jhené Aiko just before kickoff.

Actress Sandra Mae Frank will perform the national anthem and “America the Beautiful” in American Sign Language. In addition, American urban contemporary gospel duo Mary Mary will perform “Lift˜ Every Voice and Sing” alongside the LA Phil’s YOLA (Youth Orchestra Los Angeles). Zedd will act as the official pregame DJ during player warmups.
