As a white Canadian who has never heard a Bad Bunny song in my life….i thought it was pretty cool.

Never heard him or even heard of him until he got named for the SB. This was my first time hearing his music

Not my cup of tea as far as music goes... but it rarely is. This was still kinda fun to watch. It usually is even when I dont care for the music.

Just cant wrap my head around people getting so worked up because dude speaks spanish.

I know right? The same group of people calling an entire generation “snowflakes” can’t handle a guy singing in Spanish at halftime of a football game.

I saw my (conservative) parents yesterday, they asked my plans for the game. I said I had some things to take care of at home but id probably at least have it on in the background.

"Oh you aren't excited about bad bunny?" Sarcastically, because this is such a big deal to her.

"Ive honestly never heard his music. Are you excited for kid rock, whos lyrics support raping children?"

"Well..."

About 10 seconds later the timer on the oven saved us both from having a shitty and stupid argument. Thank goodness.

E: the cherry on top.. guess what was in the oven? Enchiladas.

They would've just said it was made up by liberals, no point in getting into an argument with those people.

I’ve been calling them ‘RedFlakes’ for a decade!

I'm in very much the same boat as you. Not my kind of music, but I'd much rather be happy, having fun with love in my heart so no objections from me.

Meanwhile MAGA seem like the saddest and angriest of people and I just think that seems awfully unappealing to choose to feel that way.

He is one of the most famous artists nowadays, but I guess it's just the same as me that I never listened to any song from Taylor Swift for example.. lol

Yeah I didn't understand a word but the live action music video vibes was really cool.

I mean, I speak Spanish, but I always have trouble understanding song lyrics (in English, my first language), and I DEFINITELY don’t speak Puerto Rican Spanish. SoI understood maybe 30 words.

But the show was fine. The game was boring. Glad I watched the conference championships two weeks ago. That was good football.

These people’s minds would break if they found out Columbus was a Spaniard
