Here’s What Kevin Durant Said About Super Bowl LIX & Kendrick Lamar’s Halftime Show
On Monday, February 10, sports writer for Arizona Central.com Dana Scott took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share a video clip that featured Durant. In the clip, Scott noted that Durant loves hip hop just as much as he loves basketball.
“So what was your take seeing the halftime show yesterday with Kendrick doing ‘Not Like Us,'” Scott asked Durant.
In turn, Durant replied that it “meant nothing” to him.
At that point, Scott noted Durant previously referring to Drake as one of the greats in hip hop. Therefore, he was curious to hear Durant’s thoughts on Lamar’s performance.
“[I have] no thoughts — I didn’t really pay attention to it, to be honest,” Durant explained. “It was a pretty boring day as far as Super Bowl — the game got out of hand; the Super Bowl halftime show was just — I ain’t pay attention to it… I kind of skimmed through the whole thing, to be honest.”
