As excitement builds around Kendrick Lamar’s upcoming Super Bowl Halftime Show, there’s one track that fans are eager to hear: the Grammy-winning diss track “Not Like Us.” However, not everyone agrees that it should make an appearance during his performance in New Orleans.

Charlamagne Tha God, known for his candid opinions on the Breakfast Club podcast, recently shared his thoughts on whether Kendrick should include the controversial song.

“I just don't think he should do a diss record on a big stage like that," Charlamagne explained. "I wouldn't do it.” The radio personality has been vocal about this viewpoint for some time, stating that he would avoid performing tracks that target other artists at such a significant event.

While the song, which includes pointed jabs at various figures in the industry, has earned Kendrick accolades, Charlamagne suggests that it could be divisive.

He added, "I just wouldn't be up there mentioning all them other people during my time like that." His advice? “Do the horns and the hook” — referring to the instrumental elements of the song, which he believes would create a better atmosphere for the occasion.
