WATCH LIVE: SuperBowl halftime performers face questions from media
INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- There promises to be plenty of"California Love" when Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar combine Sunday for the Super Bowl halftime show. The hip-hop icons are to talk about their set at a midday news conference.
Dre emerged from the West Coast gangster rap scene alongside Eazy-E and Ice Cube to help form the group N.W.A., which made a major mark in the hip-hop culture and music industry with controversial lyrics in the late 1980s. Dre is responsible for promoting rap stars such as Snoop Dogg, Eminem, 50 Cent and Lamar. Dre also produced Blige's No. 1 hit song"Family Affair."
The five music artists have a combined 44 Grammys. Eminem has the most with 15. Blige is the only return performer among the group - she was part of an ensemble cast that featured Aerosmith, NSYNC, Britney Spears and Nelly back in 2001.A trailer for this year's Pepsi Super Bowl LVI Halftime Show is a cinematic treat featuring Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige and Kendrick Lamar in a '90s-style video.
The National Association of the Deaf arranged to have Sean Forbes and Warren Snipe, also referred to as"WaWa," perform sign language interpretations of the songs performed by the headliners.
