Twitter Reacts To Maroon 5 Performing The Super Bowl Halftime Show In Atlanta + Why It’s Not All Bad

Source: Kevin Kane / Getty When you think of Atlanta, you think of T.I., you think of a Welcome to Atlanta medley with Jermaine Dupri and Ludacris. You think of Gucci Mane, Future, Jeezy, even the Migos. But one thing that I would never think of when referring to Atlanta is Maroon 5. But the NFL doesn’t care what we think. Maroon 5, which is a great band by the way (we love Adam Whatshisname), has been tapped to headline the halftime show at the 2019 Super Bowl.

We couldn’t be the only ones who had feelings about the halftime show so we decided to check Twitter for reactions. It looks like we weren’t alone.

Honestly, it’s just not practical.   NFL: “We need a halftime show for the Super Bowl this year in Atlanta” The city of Atlanta: Migos Usher OutKast CeeLo Green Future 2 Chainz Big Boi Ludacris Jeezy T.I.

Their faces were painted in Black as well as their bodies. One user on the post said,”Some Australians still have no clue what is considered racist. This Mad Monday ‘costume’ is clearly racist. And I’m a person who is fed up with today’s over-the-top political correctness.” The term “Mad Monday” is usually used in Australia to have the end-of-season festivities for football players.

Their actions were never intended to be racist in any way. Those concerned have been reprimanded and will be given support to make sure they understand that their behavior was racist and hurtful and that it will not happen again.” Do you think next season these Australian football players should be suspended for the first couple of games?
