Peacock Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican sensation, marked the Fourth of July by releasing his music video “NUEVAYol,
” a powerful political statement against President Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policies. The song is part of his hit album DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.
In a bold move, Bad Bunny filmed the video at Bronx Community College in New York earlier this year under the direction of Renell Medrano. The vibrant visuals pay homage to the diverse Latinx community thriving in New York City.
The video not only showcases Bad Bunny’s artistry but also serves as a platform for him to address pressing social issues. One poignant moment features a Trump-like voice on the radio retracting harsh statements against Latinx communities and acknowledging their vital contributions with an apology: “
This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Cubans…
”
Through symbolic gestures like draping the Statue of Liberty with a giant Puerto Rican flag, Bad Bunny proudly celebrates his heritage while advocating for unity. The closing message “
Juntos Somos Más Fuerte
” emphasizes solidarity and strength in diversity.
As fans anticipate his upcoming concert residency in Puerto Rico starting on July 11 at El Coliseo in San Juan, the release of “
NUEVAYol
” reinforces Bad Bunny’s commitment to using his platform for social change and inclusivity.
The music video stands as a testament to Bad Bunny’s belief in standing up for what he believes in. With its blend of artistry and activism, “
NUEVAYol” not only entertains but also sparks important conversations about immigration and unity.
