I don’t want them to do to you what they did to Hawaii,” Bad Bunny sings in  his song “LO QUE LE PASÓ A HAWAii.”   The singer and global phenomenon has made it clear that his homeland of Puerto Rico is at a pivotal moment in its history.

Bad Bunny regularly taps into his roots in his lyrics and activism, tackling issues of inequality, gentrification, and cultural pride. His latest album, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, melds traditional Puerto Rican genres with contemporary production, embodying both his roots and present-day struggles.
