Why are people complaining about Bad Bunny singing in Spanish?

[Anonymous]

The English language isn’t even originally from the USA.

[AviatorTom]

The people I know aren't complaining that he sang in Spanish, they're complaining because there was no translations, so you had no idea what he was saying.

The network, which knew what songs he'd be singing, could have easily put the lyrics as a closed caption at the bottom of the screen, but they didn't.

Plus, not everyone enjoys salsa music with dancers shaking their booty, during what should be a family-oriented show.

And one more thing. At the end of the presentation, a collection of country flags left the field, with Latin countries leading the way and the American flag stuck in the middle. Considering the Super Bowl is an American event, in an American city, and Bad Bunny IS American (Puerto Ricans are US citizens), shouldn't Old Glory have led the way?

And of course, there are those people who agree with President Trump's Executive Order declaring English as the official language of the United States. Many people don't know that the US is one of the few countries without an official language. though English is the most common.

Because MAGA thinks that English originated in the U. S. and a that Bad Bunny isn't American. That's because most of them weren't aware that Puerto Rico is part of the U. S. I saw this post a few times to indicate that point "Melania Trump can't run for President. Bad Bunny can." That's not to say that he will or wants to, but he is legally able to, because he was born in America and is a natural born citizen.

Exactly and what would happen if a popstar started singing on national tv about their dick and eating ass in front of children in English on national tv?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

They are xenophobic basically. They don't like things they don't consider "American". This is driven by fear from what they consume from right wing media sources and by a narcissistic president who gives them the ok to hate those who are not white or speaking English.

It's pathetic basically.

[Hagar88]

Nah the show had sexist misogynistic sexual and drug use lyrics and he was singing about his dick and eating ass in front of children.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

And that's why the FCC fined him after their investigation, right?

Oh wait, you mean they didn't find any wrong doing? Well there goes your narrative. Try again.

People were complaining about him singing in Spanish before the translation came out to the public

[Hagar88]

I guess white popstars singing in English are held to a different standard than Hispanics.

"My dick is being chased and I want you to hide it
Grab it like a bonga
She took a pill that made her horny
She fucks in the Audi, not in the Honda, ayy (Tra)
If I give it to you, don't call me (Tra)
'Cause this is not to make you love me, ayy (Tra)
If your boyfriend doesn't eat your ass
He better fuck off

[Bridge: Bad Bunny]
Come down to my house, I'll lick it all up
Mami, I'll lick it all up
Come down to my house, I'll wear you out, ayy
I'll wear you out
Come down to my house, I'll lick it all up (Papi, keep going!)
Mami, I'll lick it all up (Papi, keep going!)
Tell me, servant (Papi, keep going)
If you smoke weed (Papi, pa-papi)"

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Nah, trust me, if the FCC had him singing those lyrics they all would have been fined. Simply put, you have no idea what he actually said and are just quoting words to one of his songs.

[Hagar88]

Go and look up the translation or learn spainish.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

You saying the FCC couldn't find a translator then?

[Hagar88]

Saying they didn't want to be called racist by "persecuting" a hispanic make for singing about his dick, fucking in an audi and asking women if their boyfriends eat their ass.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Prove he sang those lyrics specifically because the FCC sure couldn't

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Besides, the anon post is 100% right. Xenophobes were complaining about him singing at the Super Bowl long before he ever sang just because he was brown/not American (and he absolutely is American by the way). Then when it was over they complained it was all in Spanish and how it wasn't uniting enough. They are pathetic.

@Hagar88 I don’t get why you are posted lyrics. I have already told you many people were complaining about bad bunny singing in Spanish before the English translation came out.

[Abbycado]

I have no clue. The funniest thing is to watch people on here bitch about how there were no subtitles and then in the same opinion complain about the "vulgar" lyrics.

Now, I just wonder how they knew his lyrics were vulgar yet couldn't understand what he said because there were no subtitles.

[Hagar88]

The meaning of the lyrics were sexist, misogynistic and of sexual content. A grown man was on stage singing in front of children about his dick, drug use and eating ass?

[Curmudgeon]

Bingo.

[Curmudgeon]

Because if he HAD sung it in English, "Standards and Practices" at the broadcast networks, as well as the Super Bowl promoters, would have been all over him. Those of us who know even a smidgen of Spanish paused and had to ask ourselves, "Whoa, is he really singing THAT on a Super Bowl broadcast?"

[lightbulb27]

be nice to understand what he was saying. but when read the lyrics, it's best we don't.

Next year, they should have an Israeli opera performer sing in Hebrew.

[Mike_Hum]

And Spanish isn't originally from puerto rico. What's your point?

[slatyb]

Because they are $!!%!!% stupid.

[FunkyMonkee]

Oh! THAT was SINGING?
