The five artists will be featured on 13 February during the sporting event at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California. A trailer for the joint performance has been released.
“The opportunity to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show, and to do it in my own backyard, will be one of the biggest thrills of my career,” Dr Dre, a native of Southern California along with Snoop Dogg and Lamar, said in a statement following the announcement in October last year.
