It came out so naturally, but also he’s just such a powerful performer that it just really felt like everything aligned in his performance.Įminem’s song is pretty rock and roll in a sense, which was really amazing that they added Anderson. I’m just so happy the way his performance came out. We didn’t know how we’re going to get rid of the boxes or how the boxes were going to work with the choreography, we just decided to work with the boxes and then create how it would all flow around him. He shared with me the image of a bunch of guys bending down in boxes, so we just took that image and then just brought it all to life. Lately he’s been doing like guys on stage being soldiers in a way, so we just took that vibe of them just in soldier poses and just brought it to life more. And then I’ve been working with Kendrick and I just love his energy.

I included in the choreography moves that I know are her go-to staple moves and that she would be comfortable and feel free in. We’ve just known each other forever and it was just great working with her again.
Blige, I worked with her for years and I used to dance for her when I was 19. That right there I was hooked, I was like count me in. What were your conversations like with each performer?ĭre had called me at the very beginning and was like, “Fatima, I really want you to come on board and do this and I had an idea of doing the C-Walk, a choreographed C-Walk,” which was so amazing because we had never seen the C-Walk done like that. It was just all familiar places for the guys to hang out in and perform on top of. And it was Es’ idea to also create a Snoop’s house - the first music video that he had, it was shot in his house so that when he comes down the stairs into the houses. We got them in one room so that Dre can just walk through the room and like hit a little piece with them, and Snoop can walk through a room and hang with the drill team a little bit.
And then Dre and I were exchanging Instagram links of different bands that we liked, and there was one group that he liked I sent called The Glitch Mob.
So I found, and I had worked with before, a drill team called the Black Diamonds Drill Team based out of South Central. She was like, “Fatima, I’m an English woman, you have to be my street guide and let me know what we should populate these rooms with to make it make sense.” It was like if you can look at the city from an overhead shot, what would that look like and feel like? And that’s why they did the tarp on the floor, so that you really felt like we bought a block of Compton inside of SoFi Stadium. She wanted to just like, “What if we pull a street from Compton or pull the different popular places there that people go to,” like Dre used to DJ at Eave’s After Dark and Tam’s Burgers is where everyone would hang out and the Martin Luther King building was another one that that she put there. She’s based out of London and she basically did a tour of Compton and she felt like there’s parts of Compton that are so iconic. With five individual artists and these elaborate set pieces, what was your overall vision?Įs Devlin was the production creative on this. So there were definitely responsibilities and obligations to the culture and stuff that I felt like we were really trying to stay true to, but to get the response that we’ve gotten has just been so great. You go into it wanting to do the best job you can do and you go into it wanting to represent hip hop in such a major way because it’s the biggest stage I think it’s even been on.

After months of prep but only two and half weeks of rehearsal, Robinson tells The Hollywood Reporter about honoring Compton, combining six different performances (with a special appearance by 50 Cent) into one and the biggest challenges along the way to creating an instant classic. Her second Super Bowl, after having also choreographed the Black Eyed Peas’ 2011 performance, proved to be particularly special, with its home base at Inglewood’s SoFi Stadium and the first hip hop artists to headline the iconic show. Fatima Robinson - famous for her choreography for the likes of Michael Jackson, Prince, Aaliyah, Rihanna, Britney Spears and the Oscars - was the mind behind the moves for Sunday’s Super Bowl LVI halftime show, starring Dr.
