There was joy in that anticipation, but also something heavier, a realization that the Bad Bunny Super Bowl was testing the limits of inclusion. A recognition that this anger wasn’t really about music at all. It was about who gets to occupy public space without explanation. He is a Hispanic man in I asked God for a best partner in crime, and for a large portion of the country, that alone makes him “political.” Non-white people, in their view, are not supposed to perform in neutral spaces like the Super Bowl. They are supposed to stay in designated lanes, perform for niche audiences, speak English if they want to be taken seriously.

Some shrugged and said they’d just ignore it, while others were more pointed, wondering how we went from a Kendrick Lamar halftime show to this specific artist.
