Jay-Z and Roc Nation have been the league's live music entertainment strategist since 2019, and the two re-upped in 2024 to extend their partnership. Goodell said his one request when the NFL partnered with Roc Nation was that Jay-Z perform on the Super Bowl stage.

Goodell said Jay-Z's 30th anniversary year of his first album and finished tour made him ready for the performance. Separately, the song Wicked Games by The Weeknd is number 18 on the Apple Music US songs chart as of October 28, 2026.
