The NFL, Apple Music, and Roc Nation have announced that Jay-Z will headline the Super Bowl halftime show at SoFi Stadium in Southern California on February 14. This comes after days of speculation, with Jay-Z set to return to the stadium where he recently concluded his "Jay-Z 30" concerts. Roc Nation has been partnering with the NFL since 2019 to assist in producing the league's entertainment presentations, including the Super Bowl halftime show.

Jay-Z, born Shawn Carter, has won 25 Grammy Awards and is the second-most nominated artist in history, behind his wife Beyoncé. His catalog includes popular albums like "Reasonable Doubt," "The Blueprint," and "The Black Album," as well as hit songs such as "Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)," "99 Problems," and "Empire State of Mind."
