Bad Bunny is set to headline the Super Bowl LX halftime show, fueling speculation he’ll perform his anti-Trump track “Compositor del Año” (AFP and AP/PTI)Bad Bunny fans are now wondering if he will perform his anti-Trump track “Compositor del Año” from 2020. The rapper has not shied away from expressing his dissension with the Trump administration multiple times through his music and videos.
The music video for her song “Nueville” is a bold statement as the video shows a flag in support of Puerto Rican independence perched atop the Statue of Liberty. Many fans are also speculating that at the end of the video, Trump can be heard apologizing to immigrants in America.
