Carrie Underwood Shares Anthemic Super Bowl LII Opening Song 'The Champion' With Ludacris




Following a brief teaser during an NFL playoffs commercial last weekend (Jan. 7), Carrie Underwood shared a new anthemic jam "The Champion," which features rap veteran Ludacris. The Jim Jonsin-produced record, which was released alongside a lyric video today (Jan. 12), has been confirmed to be the opening track for Super Bowl LII. The song will also be accompanied by a video during the opening on Feburary 4. "When they write my story, they're gonna say that I did it for the glory. But don't think I did it for the fame, yeah, I did it for the love of the game," Underwood preaches through the flaming guitar riffs and thumping percussion. Ludacris follows up the singer's powerful chorus, dishing out a bold lyrical verse.
