Fan of: bad bunny, mr. rabbit, benito, my calvin king, the puerto rican prince that was promised. benito ocasio is redefining what it means to be an an american. The halftime performance made me so emotional, I have watched it so many times now. Also the power line poles that he preformed on!!! Puerto Rico has been facing rolling blackouts since 2017. There is a great doc that he released with El Apagón about the problem! Go watch it! I love you bad bunny <3 Bianca Graulau makes amazing videos on the problems facing Puerto Rico as well.
