Kendrick Lamar recently dropped a surprise track that has everyone buzzing, including Nas! On Friday, Nas took to Instagram to congratulate Kendrick on his upcoming gig at the Super Bowl Halftime Show, quoting lyrics from the new song that fans are calling ‘Watch the Party Die.’
Nas re-shared Kendrick’s Super Bowl announcement, adding his enthusiastic, ‘Congratulations to my brotha @kendricklamar. Can’t wait to watch the party die!!!!’ Kendrick’s latest track remains untitled officially, but it first appeared on his Instagram this past Wednesday.
Nas’s support comes as Kendrick gears up for the high-profile Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show in New Orleans, officially announced by the NFL last Sunday. Kendrick’s participation as the headliner is a significant moment for rap music, reinforcing its dominant place in modern culture.
In Kendrick’s formal announcement, shared via X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and YouTube, he said, ‘Rap music is still the most impactful genre to date, and I’ll be there to remind the world why. They got the right one.’ The clip shows Kendrick running practice drills and even hints at his past feud with Drake.
Kendrick’s line, ‘no round twos,’ seems to be a response to Drake’s recent social media post involving a motivational clip from Rasheed Wallace. Nas’s celebratory re-share seems to add fuel to the buzz around Kendrick’s highly-anticipated performance.
As February 9 approaches, fans eagerly await the Super Bowl and Kendrick’s promised dynamic show at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans. Kendrick teased, ‘Meet me in New Orleans, February 9, 2025. Wear your best dressed too, even if you’re watching from home.’
Fans are counting down the days to watch Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl debut, with Nas’s endorsement only adding to the excitement. Buckle up, it’s going to be one memorable halftime show!
