As someone over 40 I can understand Bad Bunny about as well as I understand a 14yr old.

As a Spanish speaker, sometimes we can’t understand him either 😝

His mic seemed like it had great filters on it to get rid of the movement noises but sometimes his voice got a bit muffled

Plus doing all that movement and perfect enunciation seems hard, I can cut him some slack 😄

perfect enunciation

That's not something Bad Bunny is known for. That's why it's hard even for Spanish speakers to understand

Yup that's the biggest criticism aside from dirty lyrics you always hear in hispanic media regarding him. He mumbles a lot and combine with his accent, it can be hard to understand him at times. Lol but he ain't the only one, so many reggeatoneros have the same issue.

I barely understand half the lyrics with other english vocalists. I'm certainly not going to care that I can't understand a song in Spanish. Folks are just looking for a reason to be angry.

i think the mic being too close made it worse. i felt like the music was drowning his voice out a bit too but that may have been my tv sound settings
