You might, man, depending on how they feel. I know I feel that I want it but I gotta wait for their orders and instructions, so we'll be on point ... whenever we get the information.
The rapper also discussed how he and his other co-performers are gearing up for the championship game. He shared that they have spoken about creative input and what they want the day to look and feel like.
There are also discussions about the choice of songs to be performed, but the artists haven't decided on the setlist yet.

According to reports, as part of the Super Bowl event, Pepsi and NFL have collaborated to support the launch of Regional School #1, a school set up for the LA Unified School District next year.
The project was based on a program founded by Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine that aims to offer youths a unique education model focused on entrepreneurship, technology, and integrated science.
The Super Bowl Halftime show would take place on February 13, with Roc Nation and Jesse Collins as executive producers alongside Hamish Hamilton as director.
