Bad Bunny, known to fans worldwide as Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, continues to command headlines with a blend of musical innovation, cultural impact, and headline-grabbing moments. Over the past week, listeners in Puerto Rico have been treated to his high-profile residency, “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí,” taking over the Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot every weekend until September. The residency’s first nine shows have been reserved exclusively for local residents, sparking what Discover Puerto Rico’s Glorianna Yamín called a “peak period for tourism,” with thousands flocking to San Juan as Bad Bunny underscores his deep connection to the island.
This past Friday, he brought salsa legend Gilberto Santa Rosa on stage for an emotional rendition of “Baile Olvidarte,” a track from Bad Bunny’s acclaimed 2025 album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos.” Both artists expressed mutual respect and gratitude on their socials, highlighting the resonance of this collaboration as it spotlighted Puerto Rican heritage and rhythms like plena and bomba—key themes of Bad Bunny’s new material.
Musically, Bad Bunny surprised fans with “Alambre Púa,” his first single since January’s album drop. He debuted the song live as the show opener for three consecutive nights before releasing it digitally on July 14. Critics and fans praised “Alambre Púa” for its raw energy and innovative sound, which is now a staple of his residency setlist alongside hits from “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” and previous albums like “Un Verano Sin Ti.” Variety emphasized how the residency is a milestone in Bad Bunny’s career, showcasing his artistry to sold-out crowds and welcoming celebrity guests like LeBron James and reggaeton icons Jowell & Randy.
Beyond music, Bad Bunny’s influence is spilling into other media as he makes a cameo in Adam Sandler’s “Happy Gilmore 2,” freshly released this weekend, proving his star power is just as relevant in Hollywood as on stage. Social and political themes continue to permeate his work—his recent “NUEVAYoL” music video, released amid nationwide discussions on immigration, used satire to highlight the value of immigrants in the U.S., echoing through both the Puerto Rican diaspora and wider Latinx audiences.
On social media, a viral moment from a San Juan show sparked debate—Bad Bunny adjusted the neckline of a fan’s dress mid-performance, prompting spirited discussions about intent, boundaries, and his close yet controversial rapport with those who come to see him live. While some fans saw the gesture as caring, others raised questions about consent, showing that, just as in his lyrics, Bad Bunny isn’t afraid to blur the lines between intimacy and provocation.
To sum up: Bad Bunny closes out July 2025 at the center of Puerto Rican nightlife, world music charts, viral online moments, and high-profile collaborations, proving that there’s rarely a quiet week in the world of El Conejo Malo.
