Hanging upside down in a room full of dancers, 50 Cent made his surprise appearance performing In Da Club, while recreating the iconic music video. Dre and Snoop Dogg kicked off the epic performance with The Next Episode and the home state anthem California Love. You can’t do much in 12 minutes, in the gap between a football game, but everything you can do, Dre did. Perched on top of an all-white set resembling their hometown, Dr. Yet this year it felt about more than great production values and Pepsi sponsorship.

The Super Bowl half-time show remains the biggest gig in the world, with an unparalleled live TV audience not for nothing did Mary J Blige, who at 51 is one of the most decorated R&B singers of all time, describe this performance as “the opportunity of a lifetime”. But even they were emotionally overshadowed by Kendrick Lamar emerging from a row of cardboard boxes to perform Alright, the song that was heard at Black Lives Matter protests across the country, now being performed at the centerpiece event of a league that had told black athletes five years ago they had no right to protest against racism. Yet both those powerful moments did happen. There were rumors that there would be limits to how much restitution the NFL would allow: reporting in Puck said the NFL had rejected Eminem’s request to take the knee at the ceremony (something they later claimed to be false), and told Dre that he would not be able to include the lyric “still not loving police” in his performance of Still Dre. The choice of artists was enough for at least one police force, in Long Island, to encourage residents to boycott the ceremony. Now with five of the defining artists of 90s hip-hop and R&B sharing the stage, led by Dr Dre – who, as part of NWA, gave America’s music its most powerful statement against police racism – it could be argued the Super Bowl has regained some credibility among black fans. Dre, Snoop Dogg, and Eminem are set to headline the 2022 Pepsi Super Bowl. Since then the production has been taken over by Jay Z’s Roc Nation, with acclaimed artists such as the Weeknd and a celebrated shared performance by Jennifer Lopez and Shakira returning prestige to the slot. Next year’s Super Bowl is shaping up to be a night to remember, at least music-wise. Mary J Blige at the Super Bowl half-time Photograph: Ronald Martinez/Getty Images
