Varietyand Us Weekly report that adult contemporary group Maroon 5 will be the halftime performers at February’s Super Bowl LIII (pronounced “leeeeeee”) in Atlanta, probably because Imagine Dragons was already booked as the NHL’s in-house band.
I enjoyed this line from the Variety report:
Anyway, who cares, I’m sure it’ll be like almost all halftime shows, fine and forgettable—except for Jaguars fans, for whom Maroon 5 will play an inextricable starring role in their memories of their team’s first championship.

While the group is stylistically more similar to recent performers like Justin Timberlake and Bruno Mars than more controversial ones such as Beyonce and Lady Gaga...
I think I speak for America when I say that we need to up our standards for what passes for controversy in the Super Bowl halftime show.

They could have had a rotation of artists just a super medley of their biggest hits and it would've been incredible
you definitely heard their music on a commercial or elevator or mall...
they have a following..
I know of them just cause...I know of them.
They a take it or leave it type of group
but they got a very loyal fan base.

Oh ok. So they like the Eagles? I finally googled the eagles this year and was surprised by all their songs I heard but didn't know it was them.
Just seen this group been around for a long time.
Oh they aint the EAGLES...I wouldn't rate them up there...
but it is a fair comparison
where its a group you could live your life not consciously knowing their music.
Them white boys be jammin. I won't be watching though
Lol remwmeberaat year when it was all "nobody Black better perform at the Superbowl" ?
Now we sposed to be mad about this?
Oh aight

All I know is Moves Like Jagger....and that's because it was on Madden. I never knowingly clicked on a Maroon 5 song for any reason

Since they currently have the #2 song in the country together, the good news is that Cardi B will almost certainly perform with them. Oh wait... 
TBH I thought Maroon 5 had already performed at the Superbowl - quick, name a more successful/popular American band who HASN'T done it yet?
That "list" Playahaitian posted is comedy (Bubba Sparkxxx? Headlining the Super Bowl in 2019? This is why some complaints don't get taken seriously).

When will ya'll get that the NFL has made a business decision to appeal to Racists at the expense of black folk. They did the math and there are more klan members and sympathizers than African Americans so fuck morality; appeal to white interests and make more money- it is a win win for them.
Beyonce (superbowl performance) and Kaep drew a line ins the sand and said "black poeple should be valued" and the nazi's said fuck that. What side of that line is the NFL on?
but ya'll still give them your attention and by extension your dollars so that they can shit all over your and your family with that money for the sake of entertainment.
but hey, principals are for children and fools right

Let's see the owners are all right wing trump supporters and more than half the fans are too, what would make you think you would be seeing the bankhead bounce at halftime?
Not sure why anyone is shocked at this point

Majority of their fan base are White women.
Which means a large majority of white women will be tuning in and watching the halftime show.....and the NFL hopes they will tune into the whole game to boost ratings.
SuperBowl ratings have been dropping in recent years.
Lots of folks are blowing off the Super Bowl and catching up on shows on their DVR or streaming service like Netflix.

Not sure I’d want to have never heard the guitar riffs in Hotel California. But these Maroon muhfuhkahs...
They are a huge pop band with a wholesome vibe. They are very consumer friendly. "Sunday Morning" is probably their biggest hit. I wouldn't say I'm a fan, but I like their music.
Maroon 5 is the perfect group to perform at the Super Bowl. More universally liked among various demos unlike U2 or the Stones. Besides, black folks boycotting the Super Bowl, remember?

yeah that that was some ole bullsh*t...
musta been Bubba's cousin.
but I think they were being COMEDIC and making a point about how many Atlanta natives could have been chosen BEFORE them...
it was trying to add a bit of humor and levity.
i dont give a shit with the garbage ass hip hop shit thats out nowdays.. And aint nobody trying to hear Outkast and them other dudes greatest hits..
