Forget Drake, Kendrick Lamar’s potential new beef with Oasis frontman Noel after Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show diss?

From Samuel L. Jackson’s narration, to the teasing of ‘that’ song, to the car full of dancers, there was much to take in on Sunday night, but there were very mixed reviews.

Update:

Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show drew an unprecedented 133.5 million viewers, making it the most-watched in history.

His performance featured hits like “HUMBLE.” and the Drake diss track “Not Like Us,” with guest appearances from SZA and Serena Williams.

Noel Gallagher “had to switch off” Kendrick Lamar

However, not everyone was impressed. Noel Gallagher, frontman of the recently reunited Oasis, didn’t mince words about the show. In an interview on UK radio station talkSPORT, he said, “I had to switch it off... it was absolute nonsense.” He further criticized the spectacle, saying, “There were like 300 people getting out of a car in the first two minutes.”

If you missed it, here’s a glimpse of Kendrick Lamar’s record-breaking performance:

Gallagher’s disdain for the performance is particularly striking given Lamar’s known appreciation for Oasis, with him being spotted wearing the band’s ‘Supersonic’ T-shirt on multiple occasions. Despite this, Gallagher remains unimpressed, stating, “I don’t like the halftime nonsense and all that. It’s usually artists I don’t like.”

While Lamar’s performance received widespread acclaim and set new viewership records, Gallagher’s comments highlight that not all audiences were captivated by the spectacle. That said, a beef like that Kendrick has with Drake is unlikely to be ignited over it.
