BAD BUNNY
Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (born March 10, 1994) is a Puerto Rican rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, actor, and cultural icon better known as Bad Bunny. Hailing from Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, he grew up immersed in reggaeton, Latin trap, salsa, and hip-hop, creating his own beats and writing songs while still in school. His stage name “Bad Bunny” came from a childhood photo of him dressed as an annoyed bunny, a moniker he chose for its marketable and memorable quality.

Bad Bunny first gained major attention in 2016 with his breakout single Soy Peor and quickly became one of the leading voices in Latin music. He rose to global prominence with hits like I Like It (with Cardi B and J Balvin) and Mía (featuring Drake). His early studio albums, including X 100pre (2018), YHLQMDLG (2020), and El Último Tour Del Mundo (2020), helped him establish himself as a chart-topping artist in both Spanish-speaking and worldwide markets.

Bad Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti (2022) made history as the first all-Spanish album to be nominated for Album of the Year at the Grammy Awards. He continued that momentum with Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana (2023), and in 2025, released his sixth studio album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, a deeply personal record celebrating his Puerto Rican roots and cultural traditions.

2025 has been a landmark year in his career. Debí Tirar Más Fotos dominated critics’ year-end lists and won Album of the Year at the 2025 Latin Grammy Awards, where Bad Bunny earned five trophies from 12 nominations—one of the biggest nights in Latin music.
To support the album, Bad Bunny launched the Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour, performing electrifying shows across Latin America, Mexico City (with massive sold-out audiences), and plans for Europe, Australia, and more into 2026.
He also closed 2025 as Spotify’s most-streamed global artist of the year, with billions of streams worldwide and his 2025 album securing top positions on global charts.
Bad Bunny has broken barriers not just in music but in live entertainment: he’s slated to be the headliner of the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show in February 2026 — a historic moment as one of the first Spanish-language solo artists to take that stage.
Beyond music, Bad Bunny has ventured into acting with film roles and is celebrated for his fearless fashion expression and social consciousness. Over his career, he’s received numerous accolades, including multiple Grammy and Latin Grammy Awards, and is widely credited with bringing Latin trap and reggaeton to global mainstream audiences.
Bad Bunny continues to reshape contemporary music and culture, blending genre innovation with deep personal and cultural storytelling that resonates with fans around the world.
