Abel was the first performer to not include any special guests in his gig and perform solo.

The Weeknd sang a medley of his biggest hits, such as “Starboy,” “Earned It,” and “Blinding Lights.”  His performance also featured bandaged lookalike dancers.

The singer brought his catalogue of hits to Super Bowl LV but there were a number of complaints on social media regarding the sound quality of his show.

One viewer tweeted: “Is it me or does the weeknd sound terrible right now?” Another added: “that weeknd performance sounded awful. I blame the sound guy.”

Social media users also shared a new meme from his big show, and it’s quite hilarious.

Here are some of the best tweets :

The Weeknd put on a spectacular performance, but viewers were shocked at the quality of the sound and criticized producers as they ‘couldn’t hear him’.

In a previous performance last year Jennifer Lopez and Shakira stole the star-studded show as the iconic musicians stunned their fans with their outstanding performance.

Super Bowl LV was scheduled to kick off at 6:30 pm, while halftime show began 90 minutes after the opening – at around 8:00 pm ET.
