Dj akademiks is stirring the pot again, officially nominating nba youngboy for the 2027 super bowl halftime show after praising bad bunny's 2026 performance. He also shouted out chris brown as a top pick, but the internet is divided on whether youngboy's slime would actually slime up the stage. Social media is buzzing with reactions from fans ready to buy tickets to skeptics who say it'll never happen.
Oh honey, the super bowl halftime drama never sleeps! Fresh off bad bunny's 2026 show that had everyone vibing on 'positive togetherness,' dj akademiks hopped on x to spill his hot takes. 'This halftime show was fun.. had ppl vibing and dancing on some positive togetherness sht… last year kendrick did a psa for pdfs the whole performance .. sht was awkward and tone deaf. N**a we ain’t tryna hear dat sht.. we tryna get lit and turned! Bad bunny clears sorry!' he wrote, shading kendrick lamar's 2025 set hard. 🔥
But ak didn't stop there—he went full nomination mode for next year. 'Next year i nominate nba youngboy to perform. Roc nation i have sent my official recommendation via email and courier mail. Thanks for yall consideration!!! Yb 2027 superbowl!' And because ak loves a good curveball, he doubled down on chris brown too: 'I agree next year let’s put on bris breezy! Ngl ain’t nobody alive rn can perform like him rn. We gotta book him before he get too old to do triple backflips and gabbie douglas somersaults n shit. Chris put his heart into every performance. Usher was good. Breezy da goat!' With a pic to boot. Eyes on that energy! 👀
The shade room teens lit up with reactions. Fan @pooh_215 is all in: 'Bring the slime im ready that definitely be the best superbowl ever rs make America slimy again.' @kngmilly declared, 'I’m buying that ticket 💯,' while @povpadro predicted a 'record breaking halftime show hands down !!!' But not everyone's slimed up—@whodontluv_bucks facepalmed: 'I just went to a halftime show where i didn’t understand one word i don’t need that sh** again.' @1mblivin_ kept it real: 'Them grey folks would not let that happen let’s be real.' And @sexytoocutee shaded, 'Hmm not before chris brown.' @loveetea_ wasn't having it over lil wayne: 'Him over wayne? Please stfu.' Even @clipjunkie11 noted, 'I don’t think people understand that for the past 4-5 years all the teams been playing yb after they win.' Messy much? 😏
Reginae carter, lil wayne's daughter, is over the annual fight: 'I’m so tired of y’all fighting about this super bowl show every year! Lolll,' she posted on her instagram story. (Last year was all about wayne vs. kendrick in new orleans, remember?) Meanwhile, joseline hernandez jumped in elsewhere, replying to a fan dreaming of bad bunny featuring her: 'That s**t would have been jumping.' So, roc nation, who's headlining 2027? Will it be youngboy turning the field slimy, or breezy flipping his way to goat status? Spill more tea below!
