About this episode
Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has carved out a significant place for himself in the global music industry. The Puerto Rican singer, rapper, and songwriter is hailed for his versatility, genre-blending style, and dynamic performances. His music encompasses a variety of genres, including reggaeton, Latin trap, and more eclectic sounds that challenge conventional musical norms.

Bad Bunny first gained widespread recognition in 2016 with his breakthrough single "Diles." This song garnered attention and led to collaborations with established artists, cementing his place in the music world. Over the years, he has released several successful tracks and albums, with notable works such as "X 100PRE" (2018), "YHLQMDLG" (2020), and "El Último Tour Del Mundo" (2020), which became the first all-Spanish-language album to reach No. 1 on the Billboard 200.

Bad Bunny's impact extends beyond music. He has actively used his platform to address social issues, advocating for LGBTQ+ rights and speaking out against gender-based violence. His bold fashion choices and unapologetic persona have also made him a cultural icon, resonating with a diverse audience.

In addition to his musical achievements, Bad Bunny has collaborated with brands and ventured into acting. He made his acting debut in the third season of the Netflix series "Narcos: Mexico" and is set to appear in the upcoming film "Bullet Train" alongside Brad Pitt. His influence continues to grow, making him one of the most prominent and influential artists of his generation.
