Bad Bunny, real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is a renowned Puerto Rican reggaeton artist recognized for his exceptionally passionate music. Recently, he began a political advocacy tour, in light of recent political developments surrounding Hispanic Americans, in an effort to raise awareness about the issues and celebrate Puerto Rican culture and identity.

The tour spanned from July 11 to September 20, the final concert being named “Una Más” (One more). The concert was live-streamed on Twitch and Prime Video. During the concert, Bad Bunny played many songs from his recent album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS,” as well as fan favorites like “Titi Me Pregunto”, “Neverita”, and “Diles.” Additionally, he also performed a salsa version of “Callaita” and a duet with Marc Anthony on the classic song “ Preciosa”.

During the concert, Bad Bunny featured many artists, but Marc Anthony's pop-out was a sentimental moment for most people. Marc Anthony is a legendary Puerto Rican artist, loved and adored by many. The song “Preciosa” has not been performed by him live in almost 20 years! The song celebrates Puerto Rico's beauty and its pride. With the concert being performed on the anniversary of Hurricane Maria, which brought heavy damage to the island, the song reminded the audience of the resilience, strength, and beauty of Puerto Rico, its people, and its culture. Seeing Marc Anthony perform alongside Bad Bunny, who is the biggest reggaeton artist of our generation, connected the island's musical past with its present music.

While Bad Bunny will continue to go on tour in countries like Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and Peru, he will not be coming to the U.S.
