Coachella 2023 Headliner: Bad Bunny

jajajajajaja -1000. #fail
Not. This is a huge multi-cultural mass appeal artist.

Bad Bunny is a Puerto Rican Trap and Reggaeton singer. He is known for his unique style and for his use of Spanish and English in his music. Many fans wonder if Bad Bunny speaks English, and the answer is yes! Bad Bunny is bilingual, and he often switches between Spanish and English in his songs. This makes him one of the most popular Latino artists in the world, as he is able to reach a wider audience with his music.

Bad Bunny, a multi-faceted rapper and singer, has also written for the likes of Britney Spears and Drake. His distinctive style, deep lyrics, and sense of fashion make him a household name. As a rap artist, he has a good understanding of these three languages. The languages spoken are Spanish, English, and Mandarin Chinese. Bunny’s interest in English music grew when he invented English music, in addition to following Daddy Yankee, Héctor Lavoe, and Vico C. Bunny, on the other hand, does not have to sing every song in English, regardless of his ability to do so. If you want to connect with your fans, you’ll need to know their preferred language.

Huh? Shades of Al Gore and the internet noted here.
That's a site that translates from Spanish. It really means "when he started creating music in Spanish". "Crear" in Spanish means "create, invent, develop". So it was translated incorrectly but is accurate in Spanish. I did not post the Spanish version for obvious reasons.
 
See, and all this time I thought Bad Bunny was when you had leftover hassenpfeffer in the fridge too long.
Of course, he has a charity that helps kids in his hometown of Vega Baja, PR, called "Good Bunny".

Speaking of rabbits, the mobile endless runner video game Subway Surfers is celebrating the upcoming year of the rabbit according to the lunar calendar. The current Lunar New Year's update offers several rabbit-themed characters. One is a rabbit robot, the rest are humans who are dressed as rabbits. 🐇

Coincidentally, Bad Bunny is headlining Coachella on the year of the rabbit.
 
This year, the side stage will have Mary Chapin Carpenter and that will drag me away for a set... gotta' hear "Quittin' time" once more.
Is she still performing her country songs in concert? I thought she'd made a complete transition to her mellow genre (which I like too.)

I understand the importance of that character, but personally I don't like the way he works. although I recognize the global impact

Here she is performing "The Hard Way" live in June 2022. A bit mellower to start, but sounding more like her early '90s hitmaking heyday toward the end.

 
Wait! You turned to a site other than Wikipedia when you needed factual details?? Say it ain't so! :) :) :)
I use Wikipedia when the data seems reasonable.

But quite recently I posted that about 80% of the radio broadcasting related Wikipedia articles had significant errors and/or omissions, and many were just totally wrong from start to finish.

When applicable, I use www.worldradiohistory.com which has original articles and news reports. But most subscriber-only sources can't be used as they are protected, paid publications.

Yeah, I remember that, thus my comment above, which was of course meant in jest - thus the 3 smiley faces after my remarks.

I used to reference Wikipedia more than I do - then I began noticing that entries would sometimes radically change. Even details about the life of someone who's long been deceased would change, or information there that was accurate would be removed. That's when I started questioning the accuracy or if entries could be manipulated quickly and easily by most anyone. The real wakeup for me was when I saw the banter between Kelly A and vchimpanzee where vchimp explains he often makes edits on Wikipedia and that the edits he chooses to make normally get posted right away with no one or no team working as a fact checker or moderator before stuff that's been altered is posted live to the site - that was a wakeup call. I may still reference the site, but before trusting anything I read there as the gospel truth, I'll search out at least one typically reliable source when possible.

Ah, gotcha. It's amazing how a discussion of Wikipedia generally results in specific references to horribly inaccurate data in certain areas, particularly about entertainment and political figures and events.

It's often a good starting point, and can help in disambiguating confusing names. Otherwise, it requires confirmation from more direct sources.

An example: yesterday I looked at the article on Shakira, and it totally misses the point in her career where, after two album failures she was going to be let go until the head of Sony's Colombian A&R department suggested that she go to Miami and record there with one of his preferred producers at Ocean Studio in Miami... resulting in Pies Descalzos and the start of one of music's greatest contemporary hits.

In another instance, I tried to write the story of WZNT, Z-93, Puerto Rico and the world's first salsa FM. Because much of the story is personal experience as the manager and creator, there is no other source for the information... yet the article was not allowed.

That's interesting. I'm afraid it's a preview of what's ahead with ChatGPT. The bots will automatically go with the majority.

There are some articles where edits newcomers are checked before they go live, and others where edits by new people aren't allowed.
 
I like this Bad Bunny guy. He really won over the Grammy audience. Even TS was shaking her hips.

I don't know what he's saying, but I noticed they bleeped a word towards the end of his song.

I like him even more for his "Good Bunny" program in Puerto Rico to help kids on the Island:

I didn't care so much for him but I did like his band at The Grammys, at the time Taylor was dancing.
