Dre Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige. A special peformance from 50 Cent.

Hip-hop royalty was on the stage for the Super Bowl halftime show inside SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles Sunday evening.

Children of the 80s, 90s and 2000s were looking forward to this specific Super Bowl halftime show. The greatest hip-hop artists of all-time sharing the stage with another another. The most-anticipated halftime show in recent memory.

Would these legends disappoint or bring down the house in Los Angeles? The 15-minute performance bordered on awe-inspiring, starting with Dre and Snoop doing their thing. Eminem then came out to sing his signature “Lose Yourself” song.

Just watch.

This halftime show is already my favorite in the past 5 years, and we haven't even seen 50 Cent, Mary J Blige, Eminem, or Kendrick yet.

That was the best halftime show ever, and I don't think it's close. Dr. Dre and company absolutely killed it.

Really happy with my decision to go out of the press box for that. Epic.
