Usher to rock the 2024 Super Bowl halftime show

The Super Bowl is not only the biggest sporting event of the year, but also the most anticipated musical spectacle. And this year, the Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show will feature one of the most influential artists of a generation: Usher.

Usher, the eight-time Grammy Award-winning diamond-selling international megastar, will take the stage at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday, Feb. 11, 2024. The performance will mark Usher’s first time headlining the halftime show, and he promises to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from him before.

“It’s an honor of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance off my bucket list. I can’t wait to bring the world a show unlike anything else they’ve seen from me before,” Usher said in a statement. “Thank you to the fans and everyone who made this opportunity happen. I’ll see you real soon.”

Usher has changed music, culture, and countless lives throughout his career, which spans over three decades. From his debut album at the age of 15, to his multi-platinum hits like “Yeah!”, “U Remind Me”, “Burn”, and “OMG”, Usher has sold over 100 million records worldwide and won numerous accolades, including 18 Billboard Music Awards, nine Soul Train Music Awards, and five American Music Awards. He has also ventured into acting, dancing, entrepreneurship, and philanthropy, proving his versatility and talent in every field.

The Apple Music Super Bowl LVIII Halftime Show is a result of a multiyear partnership between Apple Music, the NFL, and Roc Nation, which aims to bring fans the best music listening experience with a catalog of over 100 million songs and immersive sound powered by Spatial Audio. Apple Music will also offer exclusive videos, interviews, playlists, and more to celebrate Usher’s halftime show and the Super Bowl.

“Usher is the ultimate artist and showman. Ever since his debut at the age of 15, he’s been charting his own unique course. Beyond his flawless singing and exceptional choreography, Usher bares his soul,” said Jay-Z, founder of Roc Nation. “His remarkable journey has propelled him to one of the grandest stages in the world. I can’t wait to see the magic.”

To get ready for Usher’s halftime show, fans can tune in to Apple Music and listen to his exclusive playlist, My Road to Halftime, which features the songs that are getting him hyped for the performance of a lifetime.
