NBA Star Kevin Durant Says Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime Show ‘Meant Nothing to' Him
Kevin Durant wasn't too enthralled with Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime Show. When asked about Lamar's performance on Monday (Feb. 10), the Phoenix Suns star called the day 'boring' and said it was of little interest to him. 'It meant nothing to me,' he said to reporter Dana Scott. 'No thoughts — I didn't really pay attention to it to be honest. It was a little boring day for a Super Bowl. The game got out of hand. The Super Bowl Halftime Show — I didn't pay attention to it. I kinda skimmed through the whole thing, to be honest.' More from Billboard Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime Show: 10 Things You Didn't See on TV Cam'ron Finally Reveals Why Lil Wayne & Juelz Santana's Joint Album 'I Can't Feel My Face' Was Never Released Avril Lavigne Set to Perform at Warped Tour for First Time Ever With Durant being a diehard Washington Commanders fan, who lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship, and a vocal Drake supporter, Super Bowl LIX wasn't exactly the broadcast geared toward him. The Super Bowl scoreboard doesn't do the game justice, as the Eagles blew out defending champions Kansas City Chiefs more than the 40-22 final score indicated on Sunday (Feb. 9) in New Orleans. Durant has been tight with Drake for years now. KD even earned an A&R credit on Drizzy's 2023 For All the Dogs album, and he spent some time with the 6 God in Toronto over the summer. 'Whenever Drake just wants to talk about life I'm there for him and he just gave me that title,' the Suns star previously said of his A&R role with Drake. It appears Drake may have sent some records from the $ome $exy $ongs 4 U collab project with PartyNextDoor to Durant before the album arrives on Friday (Feb. 14). Durant championed the effort and deemed that Drizzy and PND have a 'classic otw' with the project. Drake dropped off another snippet from $$$4U along with showcasing the joint project's snowy cover art on Tuesday (Feb. 11). The cover features Drizzy and PND in fur coats backed by the Absolute Towers in Mississauga.
