Usher shared his advice for 2025 Super Bowl halftime performer Kendrick Lamar during an appearance on 'The Jennifer Hudson Show' in an episode airing Tuesday, Feb 4, ahead of Sunday's big game.

Usher wants Kendrick Lamar to make sure he "maximizes the moment" during his halftime show performance at Super Bowl LIX this Sunday.

Usher has some advice for Kendrick Lamar as the Grammy-winning rapper prepares to take the stage for the Super Bowl LIX halftime show: 'Savor the moment.'

He hoped that Kendrick Lamar would maximize the moment. He is set to perform at Super Bowl LIX, airing on FOX on February 9, 2025. Lamar won five Grammy Awards for Not Like Us, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, and Best Music Video. In his acceptance speech, he said:

I’m not sure when else you’d see a Pulitzer Prize winner performing the halftime show at Super Bowl LIV, but 2025 owes us one, apparently. And so, Kendrick Lamar (who also won five Grammys at last week’s ceremony) hit the stage along with “unexpected” guest SZA — to perform 15 minutes of his biggest hits as the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs hit their locker rooms to prepare for the second half.

Usher is handing Kendrick Lamar the ultimate playbook for his Super Bowl halftime performance. While appearing on the “Jennifer Hudson Show” earlier this week, Usher reminisced on his 2024 Super Bowl halftime show and took a moment to give Lamar, who’s this year’s performer, some advice.

Kendrick Lamar just got some high-powered advice for his upcoming Super Bowl LIX halftime performance. During a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, last year’s halftime performer Usher was asked his thoughts on how Lamar can have the best show possible. His overall message was to be present.

After making history at the Grammys, Kendrick Lamar is getting ready to further pad his resume with his upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show performance. Usher, who did last year’s show, has now passed the torch by sharing some advice for Lamar.
