Apparently, Chris Brown isn’t the only one who believes the Super Bowl Halftime Show “needed” him.

Much like Brown who cryptically shaded the Bad Bunny-headlined spectacle on Sunday night (February 8), many-a-social media user – including celebrities like Boosie Badazz and Mase – argue the R&B bad boy would’ve been the better selection for the coveted slot.

As the debate raged on across TikTok, X (formerly known as Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, and beyond, Mase (born Mason Betha) took to his ‘It Is What It Is’ podcast alongside fellow rapper Cam’ron to lend a stinging review of Bunny’s star-studded performance.

During Monday’s episode of the ‘It Is What It Is‘ podcast (February 9), Mase and Cam took time to reflect on Bunny’s showing – with the former being particularly critical.

“[Bad Bunny’s show] pales in comparison to all the [headliners] who have gone before. To me, it looks like the NFL is getting worse each year in their performance. That’s coming from me as a performer,” he said after acknowledging the “hardships” the Latino community is currently facing in America. “If I had a budget to do a Super Bowl, you could do a greater show.”

Comparing Bunny’s halftime slot to greats like Michael Jackson and Prince, Mase argued he’s a “person for excellence” and believes the headlining slot should only be given to a performer who “nobody is better than.”

“I can think of several artists that could’ve done a better job [than Bad Bunny],” the 50-year-old rapper-podcaster said. “I would rate [his performance] a 4 out of 10.”

As for who he thinks should’ve filled the slot, Mase reiterated his opinion from 2024.

“Chris Brown is way overdue,” he said confidently.
