Los Angeles: Singer-songwriter Kendrick Lamar has been announced as the headliner of the Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show 2025.

Regarded as one of the top rappers popular for his technical artistry and complex songwriting, Lamar is well known for tracks such as "Not Like Us", "Money Trees", "Swimming Pools", "HUMBLE" and "N95".

The 37-year-old singer will perform at the ceremony on February 9 at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, reported entertainment news outlet Variety.
