Bad Bunny = Prince

[Seahwkgal]

I went to get my nails done today and I had to have a new young lady because my regular was off today. Anyways, everyone there knows I’m a Seahawk fan and the topic of Bad Bunny came up. I made a comment that I’ve never heard any of his music but was willing to listen to make a judgement. The Gen Z gal who did my nails said “don’t bother, he sucks”. I guess our idea of changing the channel during halftime, muting the TV and turning the stereo on to Bluetooth our preferred genres is going to happen.

When did all of this angst and dispair over halftime shows start? We have more entertainment options than any other time in human history, and people are acting like they are being physically assaulted because this guy got the gig. Maybe we DO need the Politeness Police or whatever the hell the league is talking about implementing.

Halftime is for stuffing your face full of snacks and food to tide yourself over till the final whistle. Rookie moves here.

You can turn the channel; that's always an option. I never said I enjoy new music, I don't. I couldn't name one song by BB. But, AGAIN, change the channel, CHOOSE to listen to something else, instead of folding your arms and kicking your legs in the air. There's a reason I rarely listen to the radio. It's your OPINION that it's garbage.
FFS, the whining about this is pathetic. Get over it or change the channel. CHOICES.

It's a HALFTIME SHOW, nothing more. The GAME is what matters. PERIOD.

I prefer to bitch about it and change the channel.

Probably after Madonas bad Halftime show.

Well seeing as I have zero clue what hes saying in ANY of his songs... you aren't missing anything

Like anyone knows what the singer is saying in a lot of death metal bands and stuff like that, though? Despite being - supposedly - in English.

*shrug* Music is largely about the sound for me, I don't know Bad Bunny's work, but I do think the level of hate he's getting for being chosen is pretty amusing to me.

Cool. I'm retired from this

You don't get it. People want to hear REAL English lyrics from a real American.

Something like "Bawitdaba da bang da bang diggy diggy diggy said the boogie said up jump the boogie."

I'm really stupid sometimes, but NOW I get it - thanks.

Halftime I'm talking about half time I never watched the NFL I just an hour of b*******

 

[Cyrus12]

Yep the halftime show is just a good time to turn it off for a while...been a long time since there was any worth watching so its just a continuing trend and really who cares? I suspect there'll be something that raises eyebrows happen during it but we cant talk about it here...

 

[JayhawkMike]

I'll be taking half time off the air. Taking politics out of it the NFL made a controversial choice that has offended a part of their audience without brining in new audience to level it out or increase it. This will decrease half time viewership and thus Ad revenue. From a business perspective it seems stupid.

I would guess shortly after 'The Who'. I never cared one way or the other, generally leaving the room, but, starting with Phil Collins, they were pretty great for a long time. For me that ended with Usher, and I haven't watched one since. But angst and despair? Never (I care so little that I had to look up what acts played when.)

So here's an idea.. listen to his music... Even two songs

Guess who doesn't sing at the super bowl... death metal... because they can't understand them...

Thank you for making my point.

Are you new... to the world? Like... SERIOUSLY WHEN DID IT START? ROFL.... oh boy...

 

[Cyrus12]

Apparently there is another halftime show being aired alternatively at the same time as the scheduled game one?? Kid Rock is the headliner. Is this a thing? I thought the only competition was the puppy bowl.

Of course. It could be interpreted as Kid Rock slang. Slang is apart of every language.

its about more than just the music.
Honestly all celebrity talk is so cringe 90% of these performers/musicians/movie stars dont give a damn about anyone but marketing themselves.

 

[MORGULON]

You could just grab your remote, turn the station, watch something else, turn it back when it's over.
It's THAT simple.

Great idea!

I don't know how somebody could be offended by that HT show or think it at the least wasn't entertaining.
