Why is Jack Harlow performing at Packers vs. Lions game?
It was announced in late October that Harlow would perform during halftime of the matchup between Green Bay and Detroit. The country music duo The War And Treaty will perform the national anthem for the event.
"I'm proud to say I'm doing the halftime show at the Thanksgiving game in Detroit here in a little under a month," Harlow announced on ESPN's "Monday Night Countdown shortly after the news was announced." "It's wonderful."
The Louisville, Kentucky, native who has been nominated for a Grammy six times has had a huge year in the industry. Harlow released his first No. 1 on the Billboard Top Rap Albums chart in his third studio album, "Jackman". That was released earlier in the year in April.
He's now boasted a pair of No. 1 singles with over 10 billion streams over the course of his career.
Harlow is best known for a substantial list of hits that includes "Tyler Herro," "First Class," "WHATS POPPIN" and "Nail Tech." Big-time artists Harlow has collaborated with include Big Sean, Drake, Eminem, Drake and Lil Wayne, among others.
In addition to his music career, Harlow has also appeared on the big screen as he made his acting debut in "White Men Can't Jump" in 2023.
