If you missed the Apple Music Halftime Show during Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans tonight, or simply want to rewatch it, a video of the full performance is now available for playback on the NFL's official YouTube channel.

We would have embedded the video here, but the NFL is not allowing that right now, so use the direct link to watch it on YouTube.

This year's Apple Music Halftime Show featured hip-hop artist Kendrick Lamar. Other stars who appeared on stage alongside Lamar included singer SZA, producer Mustard, former professional tennis player Serena Williams, and actor Samuel L. Jackson.

I would be interested in a halftime show if They Might Be Giants or Weird Al were performing. Otherwise, in almost all cases, I would pay to NOT watch the halftime show.

I was happy the Eagles won just so we weren't subjected to more Swift garbage.

Prince's 2007 Halftime show will always go down as the greatest of all time IMHO. When they asked Prince if he needed anything, he replied "Can you make it rain harder?" The final number "Purple Rain" being sung and played live in the pouring rain was the perfect finale. RIP Prince you extremely talented man.

I love Kendrick, but it was so boring. The people I saw it with couldn't wait until it was over. Next year, perhaps someone a little better suited for the platform. Heck, even Drake, lol, or god forbid, Fergie would have done a better performance.

The HT show with Tom Petty in 2008 was the only one I'd ever watch again. RIP Tom

Just went and watched it, and didn't strike me as anything more than a "concert" that he'd performed many times before? Aren't half-time shows meant to have more creativity than an ordinary concert? What was so memorable about his performance that day?

I think the worst one of that era was probably the year The Who did the halftime show, and Roger Daltrey couldn’t hit the notes.

Missed it live and have no interest in seeing it. I am not at all tempted to listen to a song that is part of a schoolyard fight between two "adult" rappers. What a load of childish nonsense and the media reports on it like it is serious news. Great times...

Hip-hop is a valid genre. Not for everyone, but no less filled with creativity and talent than any other genre. The performance was pretty good, if you ask me, even though I don't gravitate towards that genre myself. I did enjoy it!

There was a time when artists like the Beatles were viewed the same way people view hip-hop today. And nowadays, most people view those as classics. Same probably will happen to this era of hip-hop 50 years from now.

I saw someone calling Prince's halftime show the greatest ever and I went to watch it but it was just good, not excellent. Beyonce's halftime show is still the best in my opinion.

RIP my team, lol.

I guess there is a reason that nobody has ever three-peated in the NFL. It's a tough league. Was still a great season. Hats off to the Eagles for playing out of their freaking minds in this game. The Chiefs just didn't feel like they wanted it badly enough. And with so many players with rings, I guess that makes sense. It was disappointing, but I'm not upset. I've been a Chiefs fan since I was 8, went through a 22 year playoff win drought, and this is more than I ever could've hoped for.
