The story for The Super Bowl halftime is the complete absence of rock and roll music. Rock music shut out from the inside out with this year's picks for entertainment.

The Super Bowl we always wait only to be disappointed as if the Hall of Fame Committee had a hand in picking the artists. This year Apple Music has forked out a lot of money to bring all this talent together. 2024 they have picked the artist Usher. Usher is widely recognized as an influential figure in contemporary R&B and pop music.

Rock And Roll at The Super Bowl ?

What Happened To Rock And Roll? 

Red Hot Chili Peppers played in 2014. The Who in 2010. The Boss Bruce Springsteen  2009, Tom Petty 2008. Prince 2007 was the best in Super Bowl history. The Rolling Stones in 2006, and Sir Paul McCartney in 2005. Why is rock music in such a slump?

The Plan For This Year Entertainment

The National Anthem sung by Reba McEntire. Even Las Vegas has all kinds of bets on how long the artists sing the anthem if they mess up the words. The artist Post Malone will sing, "God Bless America."
