Wu-Tang Clan to perform Detroit Lions Thanksgiving halftime show
"This is a gathering of the masses that come to pay respects to the Wu-Tang Clan," Lions wrote announcing Thanksgiving halftime show, produced by Eminem.
On November 1, the Detroit Lions announced that the legendary New York rap group Wu-Tang Clan will headline the halftime show during their annual Thanksgiving football game against the Chicago Bears at Ford Field. This is the second year Eminem and manager Paul Rosenberg are producing the show, which will air on CBS. The game starts at 1 p.m. on Thanksgiving, with the halftime performance likely to begin around 2 p.m. Wu-Tang Clan's classic lineup of RZA, Method Man, Raekwon, Ghostface Killa, GZA, Inspectah Deck, U-God, Masta Killa, and Cappadonna rose to fame in the 1990s with hits like C.R.E.A.M. and Protect Ya Neck.
The performance will also feature Michigan native Antonio Cipriano doing the national anthem. Jack White and Eminem headlined last year's show, with Eminem delivering a cameo during the performance.
