Kendrick Lamar Super Bowl Halftime Show Props

Note that the betting options for first and last song are more extensive that what is listed in the table. I limited it to options listed at +1000 or shorter in order keep the table at a readable length. But if you want to bet on a longer shot, check out the full odds at FanDuel.

Kendrick’s massive Drake diss track, “Not Like Us”, has opened as the +195 favorite to be the first song heard at the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show. “Not Like Us” spent two non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard Hot 100 this year. It’s followed closely by “Humble” (+210), a 2017 hit that spent one week at #1 at Billboard, and “Euphoria” (+300).

The artists deemed most likely to appear on stage with Lamar are Future and Metro Boomin, both at +125. They both appeared on the track “Like That” with Lamar, which also peaked at #1 in March.

Drake is priced at +3500 to appear on stage with Lamar at the Super Bowl 59 halftime show, which amounts to just a 2.78% implied probability. Honestly, I don’t think it’s likely to happen, but I do like that price. Both artists have to be sick of the “feud” by this point, and what better way to put it to bed?

Jon Batiste Super Bowl National Anthem Odds

The over/under on Jon Batiste’s national anthem length has been set at 120.5. FanDuel evidently learned a less from last year, when Reba McEntire’s anthem length prop opened at just 84.5 seconds, was bet up to 90.5 seconds, and still hit the over at 94 seconds.

Oddsmakers are expecting a considerably longer anthem performance from Batiste, opening the line at just over two minutes (120.5 seconds). Batiste, a New Orleans native and the Creative Director of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem (among many other titles), is rarely in a hurry. It makes sense why this line opened considerably higher than last year’s total.

Over the past 11 years, the anthem length at the Super Bowl has averaged 119.2 seconds with six overs and five unders in the betting markets. The longest in that span was 2:23 seconds from Renée Fleming in 2014. The shortest was Reba’s 94-second version just last year.

Grammy + Super Bowl Parlays

FanDuel has also opened a host of Super Bowl/Grammy parlays. Most involve Lamar, who is a near shoo-in to win Best Rap Song for his mega-hit Not Like Us. Oddsmakers are fairly certain he’ll also perform the song at the halftime show and have, thus, opened the Best Rap Song + performed at halftime parlay at a hyper-short -800.

The odds get longer as Lamar leaves the rap categories. He is listed at +490 to win Song of the Year and sing “Not Like Us” at halftime, and +550 to win Record of the Year and sign “Not Like Us” at halftime.

There are also a couple Taylor Swift props on the board already. The parlay of Swift winning Album of the Year and the Chiefs winning the Super Bowl is priced at a long +1600. Bettors can get even longer odds on Swift winning Album of the Year and appearing on stage during the halftime show (+4400).

As the excitement for the upcoming Super Bowl continues to build, fans are eagerly anticipating not only the big game itself but also the star-studded halftime show and the stirring rendition of the national anthem. With a lineup of potential performers that includes some of the biggest names in music, this year’s halftime show and national anthem performance are sure to be unforgettable.

One artist who has been generating a lot of buzz as a potential performer for the halftime show is Kendrick Lamar. Known for his powerful lyrics and dynamic stage presence, Lamar would undoubtedly bring a high-energy performance to the Super Bowl stage. With hits like “HUMBLE.” and “Alright,” Lamar has proven himself to be a force to be reckoned with in the music industry, making him a top contender for this year’s halftime show.

Another artist who could potentially take the stage during the halftime show is Drake. With a string of chart-topping hits and a massive fan base, Drake would bring his signature blend of rap and R&B to the Super Bowl stage. Known for his infectious hooks and smooth delivery, Drake would no doubt put on a show-stopping performance that would have fans on their feet.

On the other hand, Taylor Swift is also rumored to be in talks to perform at the Super Bowl halftime show. With her catchy pop anthems and captivating stage presence, Swift would bring a touch of glamour and sophistication to the halftime show. Known for hits like “Shake It Off” and “Blank Space,” Swift has a proven track record of delivering memorable performances, making her a strong contender for this year’s halftime show.

In addition to the halftime show, the national anthem performance is another highly anticipated moment during the Super Bowl. One artist who has been mentioned as a potential performer for this year’s national anthem is Beyoncé. With her powerhouse vocals and commanding stage presence, Beyoncé would undoubtedly deliver a stirring rendition of the national anthem that would leave fans in awe.

Overall, with potential performers like Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Taylor Swift, and Beyoncé in the mix, this year’s Super Bowl halftime show and national anthem performance are shaping up to be truly spectacular. Fans can expect an unforgettable night of music and entertainment that will set the tone for one of the biggest sporting events of the year.
