This year's Super Bowl halftime show was one of the top 5 ever. I don't think anyone will ever top Prince's iconic performance. But this was definitely up there with the best ones like U2 and even the infamous Justin Timberlake and Janet Jackson performance - which unfortunately will always be remembered for the "wardrobe malfunction." Many forget that the performance before that happened was pretty amazing.
Mary J Blige unfortunately didn't do "Real Love," but hearing "Family Affair" got me movin'. Dre and Snoop brought the "California Love" and when Eminem's open to "Lose Yourself" hit, that's exactly what I did.
My social media friends were pretty evenly divided based on age. If you're over 55, it probably wasn't for you. But for those of us who partied to all these songs in college in the 90s, it was a fun trip back in time!
