Despite the absence of direct payment from the NFL for his performance, Usher's exposure during the halftime spectacle, featuring a lineup of notable collaborators, has been priceless.

While the league covers production costs, the platform provided by the halftime show often translates into a significant boost in album sales and overall visibility for artists.

Capitalizing on the momentum, Usher swiftly announced new tour dates and released a highly anticipated album, his first in several years. Sports business expert Joe Pompliano observed a staggering 550 percent surge in Usher's Spotify streams and a notable 40 percent increase in concert ticket prices following his Super Bowl showcase.
