Dr. Dre invites two deaf rappers in a first for Super Bowl halftime

Variety

Dr. Dre has invited deaf rappers Sean Forbes and Warren “WaWa” Snipe to sign the big performance. This will mark the first time that deaf performers will be part of the Super Bowl halftime show. “The doors to accessibility are busted wide open with something like this,” Forbes told the Detroit Free Press. “So this is very much a full-circle moment, being from Detroit, being part of the Eminem camp — or even going back to being 12 and listening to N.W.A, Dre, and Snoop on my Walkman. My goal is to get out there, show what we can do, and have fun. And I want to open the door for other deaf performers.”
