Rapper Kendrick Lamar and singer SZA will not be performing their Oscar-nominated Black Panther song All the Stars at the Academy Awards ceremony. According to Variety, the reason for Lamar to give a miss to the awards night is "logistics and timing".
All four of the other nominated songs - "When a Cowboy Trades His Spurs for Wings" from 'The Ballad of Buster Scruggs' (Gillian Welch and David Rowlings), "The Place Where Lost Things Go" from 'Mary Poppins Returns' (Bette Midler and Marc Shaiman), "I'll Fight" from 'RBG' (Jennifer Hudson) and "Shallow" from 'A Star Is Born' (Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper) - will be performed at the Oscars.
