2021 Super Bowl Kicks Off With ‘Black National Anthem’
Populist Press ^ | 02/07/2021

Posted on 02/07/2021 5:30:08 PM PST by SeekAndFind

Super Bowl 55 kicked off Sunday with recording artist Alicia Keys singing the so-called black national anthem, “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing,” along with a poem.

Hitmaker Alicia Keys was tasked with a virtual performance of the 121-year-old spiritual song that has come to be known alternately as the “black national anthem” after being introduced in 1899 for Abraham Lincoln’s birthday. The poem read in 1899 was set to music in 1900.

I missed all of that jazz so I didn’t see any of it until the kickoff. Now I’m not watching the halftime show. No reason to watch that liberal (leftist) propaganda.

Lame describes it pretty well. Like watching Soul Train in the 70’s.

Soul Train was much better than this dreck.

Canned applause. You caught that, too. My nephew is watching the game at my house and I told him that the people with enough money to buy tickets are old white peoples and they ain’t never heard of this crooner to make them want to applaud.

Some twit was singing something other than the National Anthem so I went elsewhere until the coin toss.

Soul Train was great and black artists in the 1970s were highly talented, though. Can’t really say that about most “artists” today.

It’s actually a lot less gay (so far) than I anticipated. Bill Belichick and Cam Newton are watching from home. LOL. This halftime show ... who is this guy? This is awful. Granted, it’s at least average as these things go. Maroon 5 makes me ill, but at least they delivered a live performance. Autotune needs to be eradicated, ASAP.
