Backed by a choir representing the diversity of America, singer Mickey Guyton sang the national anthem.
” last March, then became the first African-American woman to co-host the Academy of Country Music Awards in April, and then rocked a supersize Afro while doing “Love My Hair” at the Country Music Association Awards in November.Last September, Guyton also released her long-awaited debut album, “Remember Her Name.” The LP is up for three Grammys — Best Country Album, Best Country Solo Performance and Best Country Song — at the Grammys on April 3.
Guyton was preceded by Los Angeles native Jhené Aiko performing “America the Beautiful.” It made for back-to-back moments of black girl magic on the biggest stage in the game. Dressed in a purple glittery gown — with a sexy slit up to her waist on the left — the Grammy-nominated alt-R&B singer delivered one of the most sultry, chilled-out versions of “America the Beautiful” that you’ll ever hear. It was a vibe.
It all set the stage for some other black music stars to take the SoFi field later for the halftime show, including Dr. Dre, Kendrick Lamar, Snoop Dogg and the Queen of Hip-Hop Soul, Mary J. Blige. They will be joined by another hip-hop star, Eminem, when the halftime festivities go down at Super Bowl LVI.The Rams and Bengals watched on as Guyton sang the National Anthem.
