Bad Bunny Beats Kid Rock in Super Bowl Showdown

YouTube Music has begun limiting lyrics access for free users, while Bad Bunny delivered a widely praised Super Bowl halftime show, and an alternative performance headlined by Kid Rock took place simultaneously. According to reports, free YouTube Music accounts are now restricted to viewing lyrics for only five songs per month, a change that follows Google's earlier testing of lyrics as a Premium-only feature (The Verge). Meanwhile, Bad Bunny's performance at Super Bowl LX was a success, with the artist aiming to transform the field into a representation of his home, Puerto Rico (Wired).

The Super Bowl halftime show presented logistical challenges, as it always does, including concerns about protecting the turf (Wired). While the Bad Bunny performance was broadcast to tens of millions, an alternative halftime show organized by Turning Point USA featured performances by country musicians Brantley Gilbert, Gabby Barrett, and Lee Brice, with Kid Rock as the headliner (NPR News). The Turning Point USA show began with a guitar solo of the "Star Spangled Banner" (NPR News).

The Verge's Terrence O'Brien also highlighted the new Mandy, Indiana album "URGH" as a notable release, calling it his favorite of 2026 so far (The Verge). Variety described Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance as an "All-American Triumph," while characterizing the Turning Point USA event as a "boring MAGA grift" (Variety).
