    @BadBunnyPRYouTubePuerto Rico

    Bad Bunny is a multi-platinum global artist and 7x GRAMMY® winner who has redefined Spanish-language artistry worldwide, remaining unapologetically rooted in Puerto Rico. "DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS" became the first fully Spanish-language album to win the GRAMMY® for Album of the Year, reshaping the global conversation around Latin music. He headlined the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show, turning one of the world's largest stages into a landmark moment for Spanish-language artistry. He previously made history as the first artist nominated for Album of the Year for a Spanish-language album with "Un Verano Sin Ti," and as the first Latin act to headline Coachella. His record-breaking tours have set new industry standards. Bad Bunny continues to prove that language, genre, and geography are no limitations.
