Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

In August, Nicki Minaj was seen by fans stanning for the song on her Instagram when she posted a video of herself singing along to it. “Ummm Uzi better make this a single, send me the beat, and quit playin,” she wrote in the caption. The obvious guess was that she will be featured on the official remix to the song since Uzi wouldn’t like to pass on such an opportunity.

Nicki has now confirmed that she has already done the remix but someone is holding it off and that someone is not Uzi himself. “Been done!!! but apparently someone somewhere wants to hold back on putting it out right now. It’s not me & it’s not Uzi tho. Tea anyone?” wrote the rapper in a response to a fan who wanted to know the status of the remix.

As we reported earlier this month, ‘The Way Life Goes’ serves as the second single from Uzi’s number 1 debut album Luv is Rage 2. It was added to urban radio two weeks ago and scored the “top added song” position immediately.

Nicki herself is hard at work on her forthcoming fourth studio album, due out later this year. “Sonically, I know what the album’s about to sound like. I know what this album is gonna mean to my fans. This album is everything in my life coming full circle and me being truly, genuinely happy. It feels almost like a celebration,” she told NY Times in an interview last week.
