Maroon 5 to perform Super Bowl Halftime

[ISUAlum2002]

Who?

Someone post some vids of them from the youtoobz. I will judge accordingly, but it's not looking good.....

Should be an entertaining show if nothing else.

For all those voicing negatives, who else would you put up there (that has name recognition, which is what the halftime show is about)?

Drake, Kendrick, Post Malone, or J Cole would all be a better choice than a mid-2000's pop band.

Why don't they get a hip-hop artist like Drake or Kendrick? No one under the age of 30 wants to listen to Maroon 5

Probably because with most hip hop artists these days, they would be bleeping a lot of words. They don’t exactly have the cleanest, family friendly lyrics.

OTown must have been busy.

top of my head...hmmm
Chili Peppers (deserve more than a 3 minute cameo, they are incredible live)
Green Day
Ariana Grande (not a fan but would pretty obviously be a drastically better draw)
Taylor Swift, has she done it?
Rihanna, has she done it?
Arcade Fire
Adele
Not a country music fan but guessing there would be a few bigger names than Maroon 5

2 or 3 of these may tell them to pound sand given cave subjects.

Haterade spillage will be voluminous over this one. Personally, I'm fine with it -- could be much, much worse.

People under 30 are not the one's that make the NFL profitable.

Next !

Well, they are the future so... The NBA gets this, which is why the NBA is becoming more popular. The NBA always has rappers or celebrities at games and performing for all-star weekend. The NFL is lacking in that department.

Well, they are on the radio all the time and consistently on the top 100 chart. That is just a bad reason for not having a hip-hop artist.

Tom Petty, Prince....Iets keep the streak alive here Maroon 5.

Apples and Oranges IMO.

When is the last time you were invited to a NBA Final's party?

The two sports have different audiences in several ways.

U know Cardi B will be making an apperance and dropping hot lyrics like “rev it up like a Harley”.

Kendrick would be way to political for the NFL. Post Malone would be a unique choice that could work.

 

[clonedude]

Yuck. But I understand they have to go the pretty safe route.... and boring route.

Rappers are hitting so hard these days. I hear that Cardi B line and it takes me back to “Hit em Up”. It’s so real and raw it gives me goosebumps.

Just bring out Snoop on a little bike and whoever else he wants on stage with him and all will be fine.
