Bad bunny super bowl 2026 critic, explained
The Puerto Rican musician, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio, confirmed the exciting new in a press release, who said: “What I think goes beyond me. It is for those who preceded me and ran countless yards so that I can enter and mark a touchdown … which is for my people, my culture and our history.
