Daddy Yankee launched an explosive comment against Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny. The most influential reggaeton artist in history claimed that the “Bad Rabbit” has lost his way. Daddy Yankee said that Bad Bunny “has already sold his soul” for supporting a powerful elite.

The “boss” of reggaeton spoke with the host of the Molusco TV podcast for over an hour. Topics included his new album, his religious version, and Bad Bunny’s success. However, the criticism of the young artist generated enormous media uproar.

According to Daddy Yankee, after winning three Grammy Awards and performing at the Super Bowl halftime show, the singer did “terrible things” to achieve those accomplishments. “I tried to talk to him, but he already sold his soul,” the Puerto Rican assured on the exclusive podcast.

What Did Daddy Yankee Say About Bad Bunny’s Representation?

During his appearance on the podcast, the father of reggaeton exclaimed a devastating statement. “Bad Bunny claims that he represents Latinos, but the truth is that he is only supporting an elite that does terrible things to our children,” Daddy Yankee declared without mincing words.

Daddy Yankee insists that he doesn’t care about the consequences of coming down so hard against the current music king. “I prefer to make people uncomfortable than to stay silent,” the artist affirmed with a severe and determined tone. His message seeks to protect the Latino community from negative influences.

Daddy Yankee’s criticism focuses on Bad Bunny’s disconnect from his original fanbase. The “boss” believes that the young artist has forgotten the roots of the genre. Bad Bunny is at one of the peak moments of his current music career.

With his “Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour,” the singer is taking over major stadiums in Spain. Thousands of fans eagerly await his massive concerts in the European country. However, when one is at the top, it’s difficult not to lose sight of your foundation.

Why Does Daddy Yankee Criticize Bad Bunny’s Career Path?

That’s what Daddy Yankee, one of the most influential reggaeton artists at the global level, must think. For him, who once collaborated with the new star on the song “Vuelve,” the “Bad Rabbit” has lost his way. The mentor believes that his protégé forgot what truly matters in art.

Daddy Yankee believes that Bad Bunny did “terrible things” to achieve three Grammy Awards and perform at the Super Bowl. The “boss” of reggaeton doesn’t believe those accomplishments are legitimate given the methods used. His criticism is deep and moral, not merely musical.
