Who Won:

The Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs, securing a victory with a final score of 40:22, broken down as follows: 7:0, 17:0, 10:6, and 6:16.

Kendrick Lamar’s Performance:

The halftime show featured a dynamic performance by rapper Kendrick Lamar, introduced by Samuel L. Jackson, who was costumed as Uncle Sam. Amidst a backdrop of American iconography, Lamar delivered hits like "Humble," "Squabble Up," and "Not Like Us," the latter of which clinched five Grammy Awards in 2025. Joining him on stage were SZA and tennis legend Serena Williams.

"Not Like Us" is notable for being a diss track aimed at Drake, leading to a lawsuit from Drake against Lamar for defamation. Social media erupted, labeling Lamar's performance as a decisive strike against Drake and the culmination of their ongoing feud. The crowd's chant of "a minor" at the end of the performance directly referenced allegations against Drake concerning relationships with minors. Serena Williams' participation added another layer, given her past relationship with Drake.
