LIL WAYNE Joins as Special Guest for ESPN¹s College Football Playoff Halftime Performance Featuring Imagine Dragons
Multi-platinum and Grammy-Award winning Lil Wayne will
join a special performance by Imagine Dragons during
ESPN’s half time presentation of the College Football Playoff National
Championship Game Presented by AT&T on January 7.
While Clemson faces Alabama in the National Championship
Game from Levi’s Stadium, the halftime show will originate from Treasure
Island, located in the San Francisco Bay. It will be part of a larger National
Championship viewing party ESPN is hosting on the island. Admission is free for
fans who have secured passes for the event, which have been fully distributed.
Imagine Dragons—the #1 streaming group of 2018 and
KIDinaKORNER / Interscope Records recording artist—will perform several songs
including tracks from their latest album Origins. They will be
joined on stage by Lil Wayne for a special collaboration.
Imagine Dragons’ appearance at the national championship
game builds upon a season-long affiliation between ESPN, Interscope Records and
Universal Music Group Nashville, wherein the band’s #1 song ‘Natural’ served as ESPN’s college football anthem.
Additional artists from the label were incorporated into ESPN’s college
football programming, promotion and games throughout the season.
Last year ESPN featured another Interscope artist, Kendrick
Lamar, at the inaugural College Football Playoff National Championship Halftime
Performance from Atlanta’s Centennial Olympic Park. That game, which featured
Alabama defeating Georgia in overtime, had 29.9 million viewers, making it the
second most watched cable presentation ever.
