"KENDRICK IS CURRENTLY PERFORMING NOT LIKE US," wrote one excited Twitter user.

Another added: "Crazy tease then proceeded to do it absolute masterclass."

A third typed: "WHEN HE SMILED AT THE CAM WHEN HE SAID DRAKE KILT ME."

Drake is currently suing Universal Music Group - the umbrella company of both his and Drake's record labels - over Kendrick's song 'Not Like Us', claiming it is defamatory.

The two music stars have long been beefing it out, but their feud came to a head last year when both Drake and Kendrick dropped diss tracks about one another.

Kendrick released 'Not Like Us' on May 4 after Drake dropped his song 'Push Ups' a few weeks prior.

But Kendrick's track ended up being the winner in terms of streaming numbers and has amassed over a billion Spotify streams, while 'Push Ups' has around 170 million.

The lyrics for 'Not Like Us' reads: "Say, Drake, I hear you like 'em young/ You better not ever go to cell block one/To any b**** that talk to him and they in love/Just make sure you hide your lil' sister from him/They tell me Chubbs the only one that get your hand-me-downs."

"And Party at the party playin' with his nose now/And Baka got a weird case, why is he around?/Certified Lover Boy? Certified p*dophiles/Wop, wop, wop, wop, wop, Dot, f*** 'em up/Wop, wop, wop, wop, wop, I'ma do my stuff.

"Why you trollin' like a b****? Ain't you tired?/Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minor."

While rapping during the halftime show, Kendrick notably left out the most controversial lyric from the track.

One person took to Twitter, commenting: "They let him sing it, but they didn't let him say the word, which is pretty funny lol."

At halftime, the Kansas City Chiefs were losing by a monster score of 24 to nil, in favor of the Philadelphia Eagles.

The Chiefs are hoping for an unprecedented three-peat, which has never been done before.

We’ve seen the Chiefs and Eagles face off in the final only once before, and that was two years ago when the Chiefs triumphed against their rivals in an epic bout.

The Chiefs left it late again that day, winning by 38 to 35 - with 17 of those points coming in the final quarter, where the Eagles could only muster eight.
