Kendall Jenner and white plastic chairs: What is Bad Bunny’s award-winning album about? The cover of the album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS – two white plastic chairs in front of a lush tropical backdrop – has sparked an online trend about the conversations had on them in backyards across the world.
Benito’s songwriting about Puerto Rico has always been political. When he is not singing about a studious, quiet girl with a propensity for partying and drugs, he turns to the state of his beloved island.
Bad Bunny dives harder into the theme of gentrification. In Lo Que Paso A Hawaii (“What Happened to Hawaii”), he states: “They want to take my river and my beach as well, they want my neighbourhood and for my grandma to leave”.
He even sings about a girl who left him feeling “colonised” in Kloufrens. Although she is not named, it would be hard not to look at his last public relationship … Kendall Jenner.
DtMF is where he gets nostalgic, like he’s telling his audience to hold their loved ones tight. In the NUEVAYoL music video – set on the fourth of July in the US – a voice that sounds a lot like President Donald Trump speaks from a radio and says: “I made a mistake, I want to apologise to the immigrants of America … this country is nothing without the immigrants”.
Because in the end, what really matters when your home is levelled by a natural disaster and your community is left without power for weeks? You just gotta pull out the cheap plastic chairs, a few beverages and be with your loved ones.
