What in the HELL has happened to Super Bowl Halftime shows?

Seriously? A shabbily dressed ghetto poet spewing out hateful diatribe to a drum machine with a legion of matching costumed dancers? And they needed Samuel Jackson to add credibility to the event?

Yes, I'm getting old I guess. My parents weren't too thrilled by Jimi Hendrix, and I guess I'm not too thrilled by rap artists.

This is going to crack up and piss off pretty much EVERY poster here one way or another, but I would have preferred TAYLOR SWIFT to do the halftime show. She still writes and releases actual SONGS. She has a pleasant singing voice and her name is a major concert draw.

No, I don't judge her on her political beliefs. (Yeah, try living a life doing that, trying not to listen to great music like Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Jimmy Buffett, etc just because they all had an extreme left wing message. At least they wrote and sang decent songs.)

What we saw last night was a mess.

I would not know a Taylor Swift song, nor her voice, if I heard one. I have heard assorted rap artists, but never worked out what on Earth they were waffling about.

... but perhaps here, the show they did put on was a lot more affordable for the sports organisation than this Miss Swift and her managers would have been! :-)

It was a great show. You probably didn't understand it.

Yes youre old.
Yes music changes.
No. Taylor Swift would not be a worthy replacement.
Kendrick is a poet if you can be bothered to read and understand the lyrics.
Taylor writes songs for children. Seemingly about your level of musical comprehension.

@Reason10 haha... go listen to your nursery rhymes. Leave music to the adults. I notice your definition of musical success is measured in money.

It's crazy how the NFL would hold it's annual championship game and chose an entertainer for the half time show who is so obscenely talented they're beyond the understanding of football fans who peaked in HS 😞
