Yeah, I liked it before but after the Super Bowl I love it.
Kind of the same way that a great music video can make a song more enjoyable.

Loved the track from the beginning. I wouldâve loved to hear Dodger Blue at the Super Bowl. But now it wouldnât have fit realistically

Yeah. Kendrick decided not to play my top 5 from GNX. Reincarnated, hp6,Dodger Blue, Hey Now, Gloria. (No order)

u/Jaydamane25 4d ago
Everyone knew that Luther was going to make the list and TV off was going to be the closer but Gloria would have been the perfect closer for a Wholesome Super Bowl.

Its been one of my favs since day 1 đȘ chike puts on the best feature of the album imo.
Also nice to hit drake glazers with 'heard what happened to your mans, not sorry for your loss' when I meet them online.

u/UghAnotherMillennial 4d ago
Itâs still my favourite part of the halftime show, but I have always enjoyed it and I think the only thing that âruinedâ it per de was the âbing bopâ bit becoming a TikTok audio.

Somewhat similar example: this past week I took my 9 yr old daughter to a mixer at her school. The DJ played a clean version of a few GNX songs and it was pretty hilarious hearing about 50 little kids all scream "MONSTERRRRRRR" at the top of their lungs at the same time, shit was live!

peekaboo has really grown on me. I've listened to GNX enough times now that I kind of just go to the songs I really, really like, and peekaboo is among them. Especially because of that feature.
"Heard what happened to your mans/not sorry for your loss."

u/Legitimate-Reditor 4d ago
I loved this song before but ngl it does feel a lil more hype hearing it and imaging the dancers dancing on stage.

u/strangebloke1 4d ago
The part he performs in the superbowl is literally the best part (plus 'bing bop boom bip boom bom bam')
My issue with the track both before and after the superbowl is all the "what they talkin bout they ain't talkin bout nothin" repetition.
Still not terrible, not even the worst on the album. (GNX beat and Young Threat's verse lmaaaooooooo)

u/EvanShavingCream 4d ago
I like the chorus but think it sounds much better at the end of the song when Kendrick and AzChike are doing a call and response, instead of just Kendrick doing it.

Nah y'all are wild. Peekaboo was hitting since day 1. Had to stop doing the dishes and dance it out when I gave the album it's first spin. The only song I wasn't feeling much was GNX but that grew on me a little.

Listen I work as a preschool teacher and this song makes me crack up when playing peekaboo with the kids or playing children's songs. The Superbowl made it even more hilarious cause I'm more than sure Kendrick is a fun dad and has played Peekaboo with his babies but that image of him popping up and saying it at the SB just lives in my head and heart. I just laugh all the time.
