Super Bowl, Bad Bunny's promise: 'I will make the world dance'. And Trump boycotts him
Bad Bunny, the famous Puerto Rican rapper, promises to make the world dance during his Super Bowl Halftime show while facing backlash from Donald Trump.
On February 8, Bad Bunny is set to perform at the Super Bowl Halftime show as he turns 31. The event will feature a match between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara. Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is not only a musical sensation with a massive global following but has also made history as the first Latin artist to win the Grammy Award for Album of the Year with his Spanish-language album, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.
The rapper has built a reputation of authenticity and has avoided engaging in political controversies, unlike many performers who often leverage such situations for publicity. His approach has resonated with fans around the world, reflecting a commitment to being true to his artistry. As he prepares for his Super Bowl performance, he aims to celebrate his heritage and bring people together through music and dance.
In contrast, former President Donald Trump has expressed his disapproval of Bad Bunny’s performance, calling for a boycott of the event. Trump's stance highlights the ongoing political divide in the country and mirrors the challenges that artists face when navigating the intersection of music and political views. Despite this, Bad Bunny's influence continues to grow, and his participation in the Super Bowl symbolizes a significant achievement for Latin representation in mainstream entertainment.
