Kendrick Lamar is headlining the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show, and the vibes will be immaculate.

On Sunday, February 9, Kendrick and musical guest SZA will take over the stage in New Orleans. The setlist is currently unknown, but we can probably assume he's coming with some heat.

So, with this in mind, For The Win has curated a list of songs we think Kendrick could perform. We want to preface this by saying that some of these tracks probably won't happen, but we can dream. Can't we?
