Bay Area hip hop will take center stage during Super Bowl week as E-40 and Too $hort are set to perform at the upcoming NFL Honors ceremony in San Francisco.
The NFL confirmed the appearance as part of its plans for the league’s annual awards show, which recognizes standout performances from the regular season and postseason. The event is scheduled to take place ahead of the Super Bowl and will be broadcast nationally.
Holding the ceremony in the Bay Area opened the door for a local touch, and the two veteran artists fit naturally into that plan. Both rappers have long been tied to Northern California culture, with careers spanning decades and deep connections to the region’s sports and music scenes.
