I'm going to do a thread of all the references and context behind Bad Bunny's performance and what it means for Puerto Ricans to see this on the biggest stage.

The opening title screen is a street mural in Puerto Rico that comes to life with footballs as coconuts.

Bad Bunny at the Superbowl: Puerto Ricans are Americans, but the US is Guilty of Neglect

Puerto Ricans are subject to taxation without representation, which is against everything the Constitution otherwise stands for

“This refusal is consistent with Bad Bunny’s career-long rejection of the idea that global success requires crossing over into English. Instead, he has always invited those who do not speak Spanish to cross over themselves—to feel the rhythm, move with the music,and perhaps even learn a few words”

When Bad Bunny was announced as performing the Super Bowl half time show I wrote a blog post talking about how the world we are fighting for sounds like Bad Bunny singing at the Super Bowl. Having seen the performance I am doubling down on that claim

"Bad Bunny did something quite novel with his Super Bowl LX performance," our music critic writes on the Puerto Rican superstar, "turning it into an extended presentation on how to make a global opportunity intimate, personal and historically specific." nyti.ms/45V8K2e

Bad Bunny didn’t just perform; he turned the world’s biggest stage into a celebration of love, culture, and pure joy. From the vibrant visuals to a message of inclusion that doesn't need a translator, San Benito proved that music is a universal language.
