It's funny when ATRL thinks they're the target audience for the Superbowl 

They think they're the target audience for anything yet get proven wrong again and again and again and again.....etc

The Halftime Show is watched and discussed internationally. Choosing some fad from 20 years ago to headline is not the tea. 

Nobody cares if the opinion of international spectators because the Superbowl/Half Time Show is a AMERICAN CULTURAL EVENT that takes place in AMERICA. 
 

Just like Americans couldn’t give an an C*CK about Eurovision and wouldn’t try to offer their opinion on it because it has nothing to do with them.

 

Go and argue with the wall somewhere else.

Okay?

 

Meanwhile Usher remains one of the biggest male music artists in the U.S and, to a great extent, is still the biggest male R&B artist of the 21st century and he means a lot to many AMERICANS, so he should be able to celebrate his legacy on an AMERICAN stage even if he is let his commercial prime.

 

Also, when Prince performed, as legendary as he was, he hadn’t been a commercial factor in 3/4 of a decade - the most attention he’d received in years was performing at the 2004 Grammy’s along with Beyoncé. The superbowl helped him a lot and gave him a lot of press. 
 

Not everybody is Madonna. 

Chill, I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it, I'm just saying it feels late as we don't hear a lot about him anymore.

The forum really has gone to the pits and I've noticed this is more of an issue now compared to 2-3 years ago which is really sad to see 

 

 

And EYE will be here to collect and gather these delusional ass twinks every single time.

Usher said to Zane Lowe that Jay-Z called him and asked him to do it and he said yes immediately

So his last hit was in 2004? 

His last #1 was in the early 2010’s (OMG) along with y’all faves Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, etc….. 

 

Mind you JLo hadn’t had one since 2002 and Shakira since 2006 and it was critically acclaimed…. 
 

This one is for the MILLENNIALS. Maybe they’ll get Ice Spice to do it soon to please you…

Yeah, I forgot about the age demographic of this forum

 

The Super Bowl does not cater to 13-21 year olds, get over yourself

You guys don't see to understand this, so let me say it like this.

 

NOW: The Weekend, Bruno Mars, Justin Bieber, Drake

 

THEN: Eminem, Usher, Justin Timberlake, Nelly

 

These dudes, no matter how U feel, are the generations premiere male performers and the most successful. 

now that mention it... what a massive downgrade

I don't get how some of you guys keep insisting that artist like Usher isn't popular anymore in current age don't deserve Halftime spot when nostalgia is literally the main selling point in current pop culture

[AxelFox]

Finally a halftime show to look forward to!  Have not been this excited since 2016! 
 

And given the quality of the hits and his showmanship I just know it'll be one of the best halftime shows in the last 10 years! 
 

Sp hyped! 

[Draper.]

He has more hits than The Weeknd, Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars when they did their own SuperBowl shows and he’s a better performer.

EXACTLY!! NSYNC was the other rumored act and their career was ending just as Usher’s was really kicking into high gear  

[glitch]

This is supposed to be a music forum and people in here don't know Usher's music? Open the schools... 

[Almodusa]

He got the catalogue. Congrats sir
