Black Artists Are Rejecting Offers to Perform for Super Bowl Halftime Show

[BUtterfield 8 41,672]

The NFL reportedly tapped Maroon 5, to play the halftime show in this year’s big game, set for February 3 in Atlanta’s Mercedes Benz Stadium.

According to Variety, Maroon 5 has approached Cardi B, Mary J Blige, and Andre 3000, who have all declined the offer to perform. Other names like Usher and Nicki Minaj are reportedly in the mix. Organizers have also also reportedly approached Lauryn Hill, who will probably have to be told she is performing during the pregame show if they want her chakras to align by halftime.

Cardi is like 10 months in the business, it's just too soon for her

I'm surprised that Nicki declined the offer, she didn't hesitate when it came to working with a criminal

Nicki Minaj and Kanye West are the only black artists I realistically see performing for the NLF because they’re the only big-name acts who don’t seem to care about backlash for shítty behavior lol

I hate ignorant SJW pandering articles like this

[AStarIsBorn21 3,714]

A lot of these artist are biracial (Nicki, Cardi, Rihanna) but go off with your one drop rule thegrapevine

[Rexx 217]

Clearly fake news, Nicki would never decline this. She does anything for money and attention.

[Luke78619 23,480]

Part of me thinks this isn’t actually true, as if they’d offer it to Cardi, she’s only been around for like 10 days  

(exaggeration here, I know what some of yall are like )
