Roc Nation’s founder is a rapper, but that doesn’t mean the Super Bowl won’t ever present rock or country. Perez noted that Jay-Z’s wife, Beyoncé, has collaborated with country icon Dolly Parton, and that Reba McEntire sang the national anthem at last year’s Super Bowl in Las Vegas.

Lamar dropped merchandise ahead of the highly anticipated halftime show. The collection includes a white t-shirt with “foot up on the gas, but somebody gotta do it,” written underneath “Super Bowl LIX.” The shirt retails for $55 and has an official Super Bowl patch on the sleeve.
