Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Martínez Ocasio, has been one of the top recording artists since 2016. The Puerto Rico native won Grammy Awards for Best Latin Pop or Urban Album for “YHLQMDLG” and Best Música Urbana Album for “El Último Tour Del Mundo” and “Un Verano Sin Ti.”
He’s also appeared in the squared circle for WWE and in the Netflix movie “Happy Gilmore 2.”
