A song often referred to as the Black national anthem, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," will be performed by local artist Ledisi at Sunday's Super Bowl in New Orleans, the fifth year it has featured in the National Football League championship game.

Super Bowl Sunday is this weekend. Here is the line-up of singers and performers for the national anthem, pregame show and halftime.

The New Orleans native should bring rich musicality and innovation to the anthem. The over-under is set at 120.5 seconds.

Trump is reportedly slated to attend, and if he does, he will get to hear the playing of “Lift Every Voice and Sing,” prior to kick. Grammy Award-winning artist, Ledisi, is slated to sing the song, which is often called the Black National Anthem.

If it happens at the Super Bowl, you can probably bet on it. That includes Jon Batiste's performance of the national anthem.

The pregame entertainment lineup at this year's Super Bowl will celebrate the rich musical heritage of New Orleans with a lineup of artists with Louisiana ties.
