In January 2011, Fiasco rapped about the Bears-Packers game in an advertisement for Pepsi MAX.Gensler, Andy (January 21, 2011). "Watch Lupe Fiasco's Pepsi Ad for the Packers-Bears Game". Billboard.
Fiasco also commented in 2022, "The Bears have always been a part of the program, a part of the narrative, even for my family. I remember back in the day, my dad did something with Mike Singletary. That was like our Bears moment for the fam. Mike Singletary did a poster and wore some of my dad's martial arts equipment in the poster. So that was always our claim to fame, and people were like, 'no it ain't.' But you read on the poster it says, 'thanks to Gregory Jaco,' my dad. So, I guess this is the second part, now I get to do something." Before his performance at Soldier Field, he said in a statement, "When you think of what could optimally express what Chicago is about at its most extreme, it's a Bears football game in the middle of a blizzard, negative nothin' below outside, with the Bears on the field trying to bring a win in. I think that's the optimal hardship that represents Chicago the most, in terms of sports. So, to be able to experience that today, it's gonna be pretty cool."
