The halftime show is not important enough to be this big of a deal. Since Janet’s titty was shown people been taking this shyt too damn serious.

I mean I'd be lying if I said I was a Bad Bunny "fan" but he's got hits in his realm and is one of the biggest superstars in the world.

Also, Puerto Ricans ARE in fact Americans so if we're gonna be honest about who we are as the melting pot nation, Bad Bunny doing the halftime show is not a bad move at all.

I dunno...this shyt doesn't bother me at all. I probably won't be singing along to the shyt unless it's something I recognize but I'm just not worked up about it.

Its crazy how folks are quick to label someone something for stating an opinion. I've spoken to a lot of Black people IRL who feel the same way as ERIC dikkerson and none of them are MAGA. A lot of people that I know at least simply feel that if an artist is performing at an event that has a majority English speaking audience, the artist should at least have some songs in English. When Jlo and Shakira did the superbowl they had guest performers who played songs in spanish but most people didnt complain because the majority of the halftime show was in english. If Bad Bunny had at least a couple notable songs in english I don't think there would be this kind of backlash
It's not the fact that he's criticizing the NFL choosing Bad Bunny, it's his reasoning.

"He hates America" That doesn't sound MAGA to you? :comeon:

That's a passionate take for someone who admittedly never heard of Bad Bunny
Is Jay-Z still involved with the selection process?
Anyway, none of the criticisms of this pick make much sense. Plenty of non Americans have performed and unless you have a wild algo it's pretty much a guarantee that several of the performers over the last 15 yrs were ppl you didn't regularly listen to. Even more if you're a middle aged cac

The link to actual video wasn't working working when I tried to watch it. My post was based off some of the statements I read in here but after actually watching the video :hubie:

I don’t speak Spanish, don’t really know any of this guy’s songs, didn’t even know dude was Puerto Rican (I thought Dominican) but the fact so many are in shambles makes me want to watch the performance more:mjlol::heh:
