Benito Antonio Martnez Ocasio better known as Bad Bunny, was born in Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, on March 10, 1994. He was up in a pious home and performed in the church choir until he was thirteen. Listening to musicians on the radio like Daddy Yankee and Héctor Lavoe started Bad Bunny’s interest in music.
At the age of 14, he started posting his own music on SoundCloud, and DJ Luian from Hear This Music finally signed him. The song “Te Boté” by Bad Bunny, which he co-wrote with a number of musicians, peaked at the top of the Hot Latin Songs list.
On the Billboard Hot 100, Bunny’s collaborations with Cardi B, J Balvin, and Drake on the song “I Like It” and with Drake on “Mia” both saw significant success. His 2018 debut album, X 100pre, received positive reviews and was later listed among Rolling Stone’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
2019 saw the release of Bad Bunny’s joint album Oasis with J Balvin, demonstrations against the Puerto Rico governor, and a performance at the Super Bowl halftime show. In 2020, he released YHLQMDLG, which went on to become the highest-charting all-Spanish album in US Billboard 200 ever. His third solo studio album, Las que no iban a salir, was published unexpectedly in May 2020 and mostly contained unheard songs.
Latin trap and reggaeton musician Bunny is renowned for his conversational singing style and slurred tone. He credits several different musicians from many genres, including Ricky Martin, as his influences and pays homage to them in his work. His music includes pop, hip-hop, rock, and other genres in addition to trap and reggaeton.
Themes like humour, sadness, heartbreak, rage, self-love, inclusion, and LGBTQ acceptance are all explored in Bad Bunny’s lyrics. Latin trap has been introduced to the English-language music industry as a result of his efforts.
Rumours are swirling that Kendall Jenner and Bad Bunny were spotted kissing at a party in LA. The anonymous gossip account, DeuxMoi, confirmed that the model was Kendall and that they were seen together at a private club.
Both Kendall and Bad Bunny were in attendance at the 2023 Met Gala, but they walked the red carpet separately. Kendall wore a black sequined Marc Jacobs bodysuit, while Bad Bunny stunned in a white tweed Jacquemus suit.
