Chiefs announce Lil Jon as AFC divisional round halftime entertainment

The Kansas City Chiefs have announced their halftime performer for the AFC divisional round game against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Atlanta-based rapper Lil Jon is set to get GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium crunk at halftime. He is perhaps best known for his 2013 6-time multi-platinum hit “Turn Down For What” produced by DJ Snake.

The team shared a teaser on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon announcing the performance. Check it out:

This is actually the second career playoff game that Kansas City has participated in that Lil Jon has performed at. He was the halftime performer back in the 2015-16 playoffs, performing at NRG Stadium in Houston during the team’s 30-0 win over the Texans. That game marked the Chiefs’ first playoff win since 1993. Perhaps that makes Lil Jon’s presence at this game against an AFC South opponent a good omen.

Kickoff for the Chiefs-Jaguars divisional round game is set for 3:30 p.m. CT on Saturday, Jan. 21. Check back on Chiefs Wire later this week for more information on the National Anthem performer, a pre-game flyover and the team’s playoff Drum Honoree.
