Excitement is building for the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show, featuring Kendrick Lamar as the headliner, especially after Ab-Soul dropped a cryptic hint on social media. The intriguing message has left fans wondering if big surprises are in store for the highly-anticipated performance.

In a post on X, previously known as Twitter, Ab-Soul left fans buzzing with speculation by hinting at a significant event during Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show. The rapper mentioned, “LISTEN… I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN A FT FROM FREE,” referring to Kendrick’s long-time manager, Dave Free. This mysterious message concluded with, “SMFH. I JUST SHED A TEAR. DEAD HOMIES. SUPER BOWL LIX. HISTORY!!! @pgLang x @TopDawgEnt.”

Fans quickly began to speculate what this could mean for the performance. Many took it as a potential indication that Ab-Soul, along with Jay Rock and ScHoolboy Q, part of the Black Hippy crew, might join Kendrick on stage during Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. Responses from fans ranged from excitement to curiosity, with some wondering, “Black Hippy in the Super Bowl?” and “AB DASH SOUL IN THE SUPERDOME???”

This isn’t the first time fans have witnessed a Black Hippy reunion. The group came together in June 2024 during Kendrick’s “Pop Out: Ken & Friends” concert in Inglewood, which followed his victory in a rap battle against Drake. That event also drew significant attention, adding to the intrigue of what might happen at the Super Bowl.

Meanwhile, Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, the founder of TDE, has added fuel to the fire by sharing a behind-the-scenes image on Instagram. The picture showed him and Dave Free overseeing a rehearsal for the event, which is set to captivate over 100 million viewers worldwide. Top Dawg kept details under wraps but did promise that “it’s about to be a movie.”

One confirmed aspect of the halftime show is that special guest SZA will join Kendrick on stage, marking a historic moment as it’ll be the first time a rapper headlines the event solo. This announcement was made in an Apple Music trailer. In the trailer, Kendrick shared a playful moment with SZA, where she playfully poured Gatorade on him on a football field, hinting at a lively collaboration.

Additionally, rumors are swirling that Tyler, The Creator might make an appearance. These speculations are based on clues found in the promotional materials for the show, including possible references to his work, such as the “Hey Now” remix and his “Chromakopia” album.

With cryptic hints and exciting possibilities, Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime performance is shaping up to be a must-watch event. Ab-Soul’s teaser and the potential appearances of his Black Hippy partners only add to the anticipation. Fans are eagerly waiting to see what surprises unfold on the big day.
