Kai Cenat recently stirred some strong opinions on social media after he suggested that the NFL did something quite noticeable for Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime performance.
Cenat, a popular Twitch streamer, accused the NFL of pumping crowd noise into Kendrick’s Super Bowl LIX halftime show video.
“They add crowd effects, I did not know that,” Kai said.
Later in the stream, he also claimed that the crowd wasn’t making any noise during the parts that sounded loud in the video.
Neither the NFL nor Apple Music have addressed the streamer’s allegations.
Unfortunately for the NFL, he is not the only one who thinks that the league deceived everybody with showing Kendrick Lamar’s performance.
“They had to add CROWD noise to Kendrick’s uninspiring performance 😩🤣😩🤣,” one fan said.

“Confirmed the cheering was added, the producers were forced to use sweetening because the response from the crowd was poor. Like nobody in that arena who can afford those tickets listening to Kendrick music like that, then again, they mostly white, so it’s 50/50 😂💀,” another fan added.

“The way TV amplified the crowd noise during Kendrick’s performance was crazy. The real footage of that arena was quiet as f–k 😂,” a third fan stated.
