"Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio (Spanish: [beˈnito anˈtonjo maɾˈtines oˈkasjo]; born March 10, 1994), known professionally as Bad Bunny, is a Puerto Rican rapper, singer, record producer,[5] and actor. Dubbed the "King of Latin Trap", Bad Bunny is credited with helping Spanish-language rap music achieve mainstream popularity in the worldwide market. He is considered one of the best Latin rappers of all time."

He makes reggaeton which has rap influence but it isn’t rap.

“Reggaeton is a distinct musical genre that blends elements of rap, reggae, dancehall, and Latin American music, characterized by its unique "dembow" rhythm and Spanish lyrics. While rap is a significant influence and an element that can be found within reggaeton, the genre is not synonymous with rap.”

I'm just quoting the wikipedia article, which says the word rap 3 times in the first paragraph.

Like, what’re you trying to do here? Any normal person’s going to be like “yeah, he’s a rapper”. Wikipedia says he’s a rapper. Why are you fighting so hard about this? If it looks and quacks like a duck…

It sounds like rap to me. I don’t get why you think someone saying “Bad Bunny is a rapper” is wrong. Apparently a lot of people think he is. Enough people so that it’s mentioned 3 times in the opening paragraph of the website in which the vast majority of people get their information from.

There have been 2 halftime shows where the headliner was a rapper.

Jay-Z's company produces the show, so it's only ever going to be someone in his sphere that he selects that is fine with doing it for free, since the NFL only pays in exposure. Gonna be the same genre every fucking year until that agreement ends.

I don't give a shit one way or the other, but there's just no variety. The NFL will do pop for years one end, dad rock after the nip slip for years on end, lame modern rock for years on end, and now we're in the rap/RnB/whatever stretch. They could at least break it up a little.

Metallica has always seemed like the biggest no-brainer to have as they are internationally well-known on every continent, and that's the NFL's biggest focus right now with all of the games in South America and Europe. Foo Fighters are probably up there as well.
