Many think the move was a reference to Colin Kaepernick.
In the past, Jay-Z has been outspoken in his support of Kaepernick, though he acknowledged in a new interview withthat they “disagree on the tactic but are marching for the same cause.” The performer was criticized in 2019 when his company, Roc Nation, announced it was partnering with the NFL for entertainment during the Super Bowl.
Beyoncé and Jay-Z’s decision to sit down during the national anthem feels intentional and important. They are undoubtedly two of America’s most influential celebrities, and to carry on Kaepernick’s legacy in front of thousands, if not millions, of Americans on one of the most anticipated nights in American culture was a powerful move indeed.
