Sometimes things are so far fetched that you have to see them to believe them. More than thirty years ago, a group by the name of N.W.A popped up on the West Coast with a whole lot of swagger and the desire to push boundaries. Shunned by mainstream pop culture at first, the group rose to prominence thanks to hits like “Straight Outta Compton” and “F*ck The Police.” At first glance, Eazy E, Ice Cube, The D.O.C and MC Ren garnered much of the attention and became easily identifiable stars within Hip-Hop. Little did the world know, the guy in the background making the beats, Dr. Dre, would become one of the most accomplished producers in modern American history.

Dr. Dre’s influence on popular music over the last three decades is undeniable. Not only has he produced his own hits, but he also helped steer the careers of legendary artists like Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Snoop Dogg. When he wasn’t working with his own artists, he found time to produce records for the likes of Mary J. Blige. Tonight, his life’s work came together on the biggest platform in modern American media, the Super Bowl.

Joined by Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre led the halftime show at Super Bowl LIV in his hometown of Los Angeles, California. Together, the crew performed everything from “Still D.R.E.” to “Alright.” Not to mention, 50 Cent made a surprise appearance and performed “In Da Club.” The entire show will be made available via Pepsi’s Super Bowl site after the game.
