No they wouldn't. I'm sorry.hiphop is the most popular genre in the nation,probaly in the whole world,you think a crowd of 50 million is mostly pop? and wouldnt be hype for Jay-Z?
Like Prince, Beyonce, Bruno Mars, Usher, Diddy, Michael Jackson, Janet Jackson, Stevie Wonder, etc. yeah you fukked up. You can't even spin your way outta this.
Have you seen Future perform? He sucks as a live performer. That's arguably his biggest shortcoming as an act. Future makes 2017 Mariah Carey look like James Brown.
You played yourself. Again, the fukkING SUPERBOWL, not Summer Jam. Pepsi would make NBC show an episode of This Is Us so fast if their show ever started with "Percocets, Molly Percocets!"
?which one is it?
It's both (it's a family show) and you're right. Hip-hop is the most popular genre, but Jigga aside, who has that kind of profile big enough to do that show? Just talking hip-hop, you can count them on one hand, music in general, maybe two hands. In the past, there was so much to choose from.hiphop is what folks are listening to,its the most popular genre....but now you say they are trying to make uptight soccer moms happy,and put on performances for the kids
Lol @ dikkriding everything else. It's called exposure and being that I've been to many of those artist's concerts as well as 6-7 jay z concerts spanning from 1999-2014, I know exactly what I'm talking about, so no, I'm not confused. Jay z is not a performer, he's a rapper with a good stage presence, but it doesn't go past that.
And performance is not about good music it's about the fukking performance, music is about good music...wtf.
...when he's on stage it doesnt matter what else is going on,your watching Jay-z,he's a icon
,and like you said its a pop neutral crowd,that will get hype for damn near anything popular you throw at them that comes with a light show
...just look at the examples yall been throwing out as "great performers" all thread long
Football's main demographic is NOT the same as the demo for the halftime show. The Halftime Show attracts people that otherwise don't really care about football. Hell, the event itself is so major that it's beyond just appealing to the hardcore football fan. They're not worried about you. All those fans want is the game and they'll get that. The hoopla surrounding that event is bigger than football.sure it is,somebody who has good music people love will have a better performance than somebody who has shytty music nobody knows....its a reason Jay-z can perform a concert full of b-sides and have the crowd hype,performing his hits would be no different.....also Jay has clarity,charisma that you cant teach on a live stage
well the halftime show obviously isnt just for the crowd at the superbowl
footballs main demographic I'm sure isnt homosexual men,but they didnt mind having Lady Gaga and Katy Perry perform did they?just say they dont care about what nikkas wanna see at the Superbowl and we couldve ended this discussion a long time ago. probaly dont care what men want to see in general,We dont need yall shytting on hiphop like hiphop artist couldnt put on shows as good as any of these other wack acts yall threw out in this thread and they would still get watched,and the crowd would still be hyped.
?Cold Play?theres no rap equivelant to them? no just no,go take a look at some of these superbowl performers and I can definitley say there are plenty of acts that perform all the time that black people should NOT be ashamed of not knowing. Hiphop should have a much larger pressence and representation at the superbowl point blank period.
?
what about Katy Perry? Ariana Grande
I didnt even see MC Hammer ever performing
Sounds like you are easily ammused by a bunch of pyro and foam mountains that artist like Kanye provide
What about the clarity,what about having classic after classic to get the crowd hype,what about stage pressence,ability to tell a story,one of that matters?
Do it Goodell
