Hip-hop fans shouldn’t miss the Super Bowl LVI halftime show for the world because it will gather some of the world’s biggest rap stars in one place. Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem, and Mary J. Blige will be in charge of headlining the show by each other’s side.

Pepsi is returning as the general sponsor of the event for the 11th time, and their VP of marketing, Todd Kaplan said they’re thrilled to bring together such an incredible array of talented, record-breaking musicians.

“Artists like Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg were at the forefront of the West Coast hip hop revolution, so to be able to bring them back to LA, where it all began alongside Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar will prove to be an epic, unforgettable celebration of the impact hip hop has today,” said Kaplan in a statement.

Jay-Z’s company Roc Nation helped assemble this A-list line-up, and it will be serving as the strategic entertainment advisors of the live performance. Super Bowl LVI is set to take place on February 13th, 2022, at the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, marking this the first time in almost three decades that the show returns to the Los Angeles area.
