Genova, i have no words what just happened. I saw people dancing from all ages. Everyone smiling and dancing to the beat. Honestly, the whole thing is making me a bit emotional. These are very powerful moments. I’m beyond honored to have been able to play for you today ❤️
oggi mi siederò a tavola circondata da quei quattro gatti dei miei parenti determinata a non lasciarmi scalfire dalle loro critiche o commenti perché la vera risurrezione non è quella di cristo ma quella di noi falliti che sopravviviamo a queste feste
i call myself a reader and i’ve only read 2 books so far this year….. i’m so far up hudcon/hollanov holes i can’t put my attention in other things RELEASE MEEEEEEE
Devo avere un momento pesantezza però ragazze sono proprio brutte le battute che fate sull'incidente che ha avuto Michele Bravi perché non ci vuole veramente niente a trovarsi in quella situazione e deve essere stata una cosa terrificante.
Fine comunicazioni, guardiamo i Morandi.
Bad Bunny walked out in a #64 jersey with “OCASIO” on the back.
Not Bad Bunny.
Not Benito.
His real name.
His family name.
Then he grabbed the mic and said:
“My name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio. And if today I’m here at the Super Bowl, it’s because I never, never stopped believing in myself.”
In Spanish.
No translation.
Even the jumbotron was in Spanish.
And I watched the whole thing with a translator on.
Because the message was that important to me.
They said he was “un-American.”
They said nobody would understand him.
They said having him perform was “ridiculous.”
And he SHOWED OUT!
He brought out Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.
He staged a wedding on the field.
He recreated a bodega.
He gave us a whole scene of family and love.
He humanized an entire culture on the world’s biggest stage.
All in his native language.
And he didn’t flinch.
His lyrics were clear messages:
“They want to take the river from me, and the beach too. They want my neighborhood and for my grandma to leave.”
“I should have taken more photos when I had you. Hopefully my loved ones will never move.”
And that last line:
“Ojalá que los míos nunca se muden.”
Hopefully my loved ones will never move.
That’s about families being separated.
Forced to leave.
Displacement.
Yeah, he didn’t chase the mainstream.
He made the mainstream come to him.
He put his family name on his back and told 120 million people exactly who he is.
And I’m here for ALL of it!👏🏽
Ora parte tutta la sfilza di gente che ci tiene a farci sapere che non gli interessano le Olimpiadi poi non gli interesserà Sanremo poi non gli interesseranno i Mondiali di calcio, signore pietà
