Dissect

📺 Watch this breakdown on YouTube Dissect's Cole Cuchna breaks down Kendrick Lamar’s innovative 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show — scene by scene, lyric by lyric, symbol by symbol — to reveal a powerful narrative about the Black American experience throughout history. This is not a standard recap. This is a forensic analysis of every detail: the set design, the wardrobe, the major and minor characters, the color palette, the set list, and the cultural commentary embedded in Kendrick’s show. From the GNX to Uncle Sam, from the divided American flag to the four control button stage, we explore how Kendrick used his 13-minute performance to honor his artform, unite his community, and beat the Great American Game. 📍 Topics include: • Kendrick Lamar’s use of the Hero’s Journey to structure his Super Bowl performance • Significance of Kendrick’s wardrobe, from the pins on his hat to his flare bell-bottom jeans • The layered symbolism of Uncle Sam played by Samuel L Jackson • Four Levels of the “Great American Game” • How Kendrick alluded to the timeline of Black American history, from slavery, segregation, great migrations, mass incarceration, and assassinations of Black leaders  • Kendrick’s tribute to his ancestors through the dead homies and guardian angels • Meaning of recurring street light symbolism in Kendrick’s art • Symbolism of each of the four control buttons, the gameboard, and playing field 🧠 This video is the result of weeks of meticulous research, providing a deep dive into Kendrick Lamar’s use of visual storytelling and symbolism.
