The announcement comes the same day a White House official told NBC News that President Donald Trump would be attending the game.

Interested to see if Kendrick is gonna have ANYTHING to say about the state of things at his performance at the halftime show.

It's literally the only thing I'm tuning in for

He'll call Drake a racist and the crowd will go wild. That's the state of things.

If that's all that happens, I'm not sure how I'll feel about him going forward. Isn't he meant to be the thinking man's rapper? Kind of an educated leftist type? For him to accept a Superbowl halftime show and not be planning ANYTHING would make so much of his work and messaging become hollow to me.

On the other hand, idk what he would even do besides saying 'fuck Trump'. That would be the weakest, most watered down shit, but you're 100% right, that's the state of things.
