Bad Bunny has released a slew of songs that regularly top Spotify and Apple Music top hits. Some of the most popular songs include “LA CANCIÓN,” “DÁKITI” and “Me Porto Bonito”. The international superstar blends his songs with a mix of reggaeton, Latin trap, dembow, and pop influences.

"He didn’t just survive the curse, he slayed the Grammys," said Floyd Dixon, alongside a montage of the former couple. The post racked up 1.9 million views on Threads.
