There are a number of words you could use to describe Maroon 5′s halftime show performance: Empty. Boring. Basic. Sleepy. Skippable. Unfulfilling. Unnecessary.

Ludacris and Migos kicked off the first night of the festival, while Aerosmith and Post Malone performed the previous night. Cardi B declined an offer to take the Super Bowl stage, but performed a series of songs at the Super Bowl-related event including “I Like It,” ″Bartier Cardi” and “Bodak Yellow.” The rapper said the energy around the city motivated her even more before the concert.
