Kendrick Lamar will be the first solo hip-hop performer to headline the Super Bowl halftime show, which will also feature SZA. The Grammy winner said it's a "big deal" to bring rap to the Super Bowl.

After winning Grammys for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, the rapper's next stop is the Halftime Show in New Orleans.

Kendrick Lamar is about to break the internet on Super Bowl Sunday. The rap icon is officially headlining the halftime show at Super Bowl 59 in New Orleans, and if that wasn’t hype enough, he’s bringing longtime TDE collaborator SZA along for the ride.
