Usher says Kendrick Lamar needs to play the hits.
Usher discussed the NFL’s announcement that Kendrick Lamar will be performing at Super Bowl LIX duirng an appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark on Friday. In doing so, he shared some advice for Lamar, having just headlined the event himself, earlier this year.
“Everybody has this fifteen minutes of fame idea, but it’s really your fifteen minutes of fame. You have to play hits. You’ve got to get right to it,” he said. From there, Kelly Ripa suggested that Usher attempt to help Drake and Lamar end their beef. “I want no part of that. I’m sorry,” Usher said. “Let’s just say, it’s been a great experience to say that I could play the Super Bowl. I understand how much pressure comes with it and I wouldn’t wish it on anybody. But I would wish it on you if you’ve had the career.”
