Snoop Dogg Weighs In On Super Bowl Halftime Show Selections: ‘Be Happy Hip-Hop Has A Platform’

Snoop Dogg is sharing his thoughts on the Super Bowl halftime show and why hip-hop fans should celebrate its growing presence.

During an interview on the Drink Champs podcast at Complex Con, Snoop Dogg addressed criticisms over who gets the spotlight on the NFL’s biggest stage.

“Before Jay-Z got control of the Super Bowl, wasn’t no n***** performing. He’s creating a wave of artists to have an opportunity to perform.”

He continued,

“If you’re a great artist, your time will come. I was never crying about it. I didn’t feel like I was supposed to be there… This is a big event. You should just be honored that hip-hop is able to be seen on that platform—for all of us—and not hate on the next one.”

Snoop Dogg’s comments come amid backlash from fans of Lil Wayne, who feel the New Orleans rapper was overlooked for the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show in his hometown. Kendrick Lamar was announced as the headliner for the New Orleans game, sparking debates online about who deserved the honor.
