Bad Bunny Hits Back at Tony Hinchcliffe’s ‘Garbage’ Comment With a Passionate Tribute to Puerto Rico
Bad Bunny has responded to Tony Hinchcliffe's comment about Puerto Rico being a "floating island of garbage" with a video. Watch it here.
Bad Bunny has released a stirring video tribute to Puerto Rico after comedian Tony Hinchcliffe referred to the U.S. commonwealth as a “floating island of garbage” during Donald Trump’s Oct. 27 rally in New York’s Madison Square Garden. The racist statement sparked widespread criticism, prompting Bad Bunny to respond not with words, but with a powerful eight-minute video he posted on his Instagram Tuesday (Oct. 29) — with the caption ironically saying “garbage” — that celebrates the resilience and rich culture of his native island. It showcases a range of genres birthed in Puerto Rico, from bomba and plena to salsa and reggaetón, celebrating artists such as Hector Lavoe, Daddy Yankee and Residente, whose sounds and rhythms have transcended local boundaries to captivate audiences worldwide.
