Latest / The K.B. Radio Network / The Bad Bunny Super Bowl Halftime Show Review
Transcript
- 0:12hello everyone and welcome to the kb radio network and this is a special addition to the kb radio network we're we're not talking movies today we're not talking television shows today we're talking super
- 0:28bowl halftime performance today this this is this isn't even about the super bowl itself which was a game.
- 0:41It wasn't a
- 0:42top 10 i don't even think it's top 20 of super bowls in my humble opinion but congratulations to the seattle seahawks on their victory but but that was pretty much the uh
- 0:58opening act if you will the main attraction the main event of this past sunday was the super bowl halftime show which was headlined by global Thank you.
- 1:12superstar bad bunny and bad bunny uh he became the first latino spanish-speaking headliner of the super bowl halftime show bad
- 1:27bunny being a puerto rican he was the first latino solo artist to do so now we've had latinos or latinas at the halftime show before uh i think shakira
- 1:41She was a guest,
- 1:43you know,
- 1:44did a little cameo.
- 1:45And
- 1:46I think Jennifer Lopez as well.
- 1:48But they weren't the headliners.
- 1:50This is a headliner to the show.
- 1:53And I think this was a very important show for a variety of reasons.
- 2:01Now,
- 2:02I'm doing this review.
- 2:03I feel it's only fair.
- 2:05It's only fair because last year
- 2:08I did Kindred's review.
- 2:10of his halftime show and what that sparked and what it did for the black community and i can't speak on the latino community but i can't speak on how it made me feel personally and that's that's the purpose of today's show and
- 2:27all of the outroar talk a little bit about the the fallout if you will of just him being announced you know we ain't even gonna get to the uh uh
- 2:39the actual performance just just him being announced was i don't know man the most divisive thing to ever take place i think in recent history i i've known i know of people and i kid you not this is based on a true story that
- 2:58actually broke up with their significant others because of this halftime show it was a uh young lady who's a latino
- 3:09And her boyfriend,
- 3:10I don't I don't know what his ethnicity is right off the bat,
- 3:15but he wasn't that he's he's not Latino.
- 3:18He bashed the halftime show and bashed it in a way to whereas he bashed her culture,
- 3:26the Latino culture.
- 3:28And it was so bad that they broke up.
- 3:31And this was a long term relationship that ended because of this halftime show.
- 3:38Now,
- 3:38granted...
- 3:40This was a blessing in disguise for her.
- 3:42I know she's probably devastated by the end of their relationship.
- 3:48You know,
- 3:49rightfully so.
- 3:50But at the same time,
- 3:52you've got to look at the bright side of things.
- 3:55If he felt this way because of the show,
- 3:58that tells me he always felt that way.
- 4:01And you didn't need that in your life.
- 4:02So it all worked out to the good for her.
- 4:06In the end,
- 4:07she'll find somebody.
- 4:08who will appreciate her culture,
- 4:11who will appreciate her.
- 4:13Because if he's willing to disrespect her culture and her people,
- 4:18that pretty much means he feels the same way about you.
- 4:22You don't need that in your life.
- 4:24But that's just one example that I know of.
- 4:26I'm pretty sure there were multiple,
- 4:29multiple relationship faux pas that happened over this.
- 4:34It's not over this,
- 4:36something similar to this.
- 4:37it.
- 4:38you know you had nothing to stand on anyway as far as a relationship unfortunately but more on a global or national response level the announcement the announcement of this going all the way back i think in september of last year is when they announced this that
- 4:59bad bunny will be headlining the event
- 5:03everybody well let me take that bag i'm embellishing a portion of this country lost their collective minds you would have thought they announced satan to perform a ritual of
- 5:19a human sacrifice at the halftime show that's the that's the response you got from the conservative side of the owl from a lot of republicans
- 5:34less melanin people just to put it plainly they were highly upset and this goes back to their leader their cult leader I should say
- 5:49Trump who when they announced it now you have the economy just going out of control people dying in the streets protests going on and all this other foolishness
- 6:02he feels the need to chime in on this he called the thing or the announcement absolutely ridiculous why why was it ridiculous why is that ridiculous let me get this out the way let me give you my thoughts on the thing before
- 6:20we dive into it i'm not going to save it to the end my thoughts on bad bunny performing cool i mean
- 6:29I'm not going to sit here and say,
- 6:30oh,
- 6:31man,
- 6:31I got all his albums.
- 6:32That'll be a lie.
- 6:35That'll be a bald-faced lie.
- 6:37I know a couple of songs from Bad Bunny.
- 6:39You know,
- 6:40and mainly I know Bad Bunny from
- 6:43WWE because I'm a wrestling fan.
- 6:46And he has popped up.
- 6:48I think he was at WrestleMania a couple of times.
- 6:51He was at a PLE in Puerto Rico one time,
- 6:56which was fire.
- 6:56He had a match with Damian Priest.
- 6:58But that's a whole nother.
- 6:59thing and he can actually wrestle he actually did it he can wrestle and he can act seen him in a few movies seen him in bullet train he was cool in that he was in a happy gilmore too and that movie is not all that good but he was good in it he was in uh oh what was that film with austin butler it came out last year called
- 7:21stealing he was in that pretty good he is a good actor everything he's
- 7:27Everything he does.
- 7:28He's good at it.
- 7:30And I like his music.
- 7:31His music,
- 7:32I like the vibe.
- 7:33I really do.
- 7:34I love the vibe of his music.
- 7:37I'm a music person.
- 7:38I love music.
- 7:38I love all genres of music.
- 7:41I even like some country music.
- 7:43Don't like some country stars,
- 7:45but I like some country music.
- 7:47I listen to all forms of music.
- 7:49So
- 7:50I love that.
- 7:51I love that kind of Caribbean
- 7:56Latino style that he brings.
- 7:57I'm
- 7:58I'm familiar with it.
- 7:59Growing up in my hometown,
- 8:01you know,
- 8:01I grew up around a big Latino presence.
- 8:05You know,
- 8:06not a huge.
- 8:07They weren't the majority by no stretch,
- 8:09but they were prominent where I grew up.
- 8:12And so
- 8:13I listened to a lot.
- 8:14My best friend is Honduran.
- 8:16So
- 8:17I was around it a lot growing up.
- 8:20And so I listened to that music and it was cool.
- 8:23You know,
- 8:23so Bad Bunny,
- 8:25he has some bops.
- 8:26He has.
- 8:27he has some bangers and i understand why he is a global superstar and i didn't see the problem even if i wasn't a bad bunny fan i didn't see a problem who cares it's a halftime show how many halftime shows have we sat that were completely horrible there
- 8:49were some bad halftime shows before it really started to ramp up what about
- 8:5520 years ago maybe
- 8:57at when when after after janet jackson showed her boobie that was that's when it really started to ramp up but before that it was it wasn't all that great yeah you sprinkle in michael jackson had a fire michael jackson was was the beast he set the bar when
- 9:15he when he did the halftime show uh i don't know how long it was about 30 years ago um and just
- 9:25Stole the show.
- 9:25I don't even remember who played that game.
- 9:28That's how gangster
- 9:31Michael Jackson was.
- 9:31Of course,
- 9:32it was Michael Jackson.
- 9:33Prince.
- 9:34Prince is my all-time favorite.
- 9:37That was my all-time favorite show.
- 9:39Halftime show.
- 9:41I love Prince.
- 9:42You know,
- 9:43I'm a little biased there because I'm a big Prince fan.
- 9:46But he put on a show.
- 9:48Dr.
- 9:49Dre and the whole West Coast came out.
- 9:51That was a good show.
- 9:52They have some good shows.
- 9:54Beyonce put on a good show.
- 9:57Katy Perry.
- 9:58Katy Perry had a good show.
- 10:00It was decent.
- 10:01I wouldn't put her on the Mount Rushmore of Super Bowl halftime performances,
- 10:06but it was good.
- 10:07So we've had some good shows.
- 10:09But prior to that,
- 10:11like in the
- 10:1380s and 90s,
- 10:14it was pretty dry.
- 10:16It was pretty dry.
- 10:17I finally remember.
- 10:18And the only reason I remember this is because my favorite team lead in the Super Bowl that year,
- 10:24the New Orleans Saints.
- 10:26here.
- 10:26first and only time so far uh in that super bowl you know who the halftime show was the who i have no idea who the who was still don't know who the who is but they were the halftime show and
- 10:42it was boring because i'm not a who fan i know there's a lot of people who probably are a fans of the who good on them but not me but
- 10:54J-
- 10:55Luckily for me,
- 10:56I could care less for that particular Super Bowl because my team was in the Super Bowl.
- 11:02And thank God they won it.
- 11:04And so it is it is different taste.
- 11:08You know,
- 11:09it does music.
- 11:11Everything ain't for everybody.
- 11:12And so I didn't understand the vitriol when the who was announced for the Super Bowl back in 2009.
- 11:21I didn't protest.
- 11:24I'm not watching it.
- 11:26I don't listen to that.
- 11:27I'm going to put on my own halftime show.
- 11:30You know,
- 11:31it was none of that.
- 11:32It was none of that.
- 11:34We had it.
- 11:35And the show was over.
- 11:37And the second half began for the game.
- 11:39Nobody cared.
- 11:41Nobody cared.
- 11:44But we fast forward to 2026.
- 11:48And racism is at its peak,
- 11:51man.
- 11:52Well,
- 11:52let me tell you.
- 11:55Let me clean that up.
- 11:56Let me clean that up for you.
- 11:58It's not at its peak.
- 12:00Racism has always been at its peak.
- 12:04Racism is just more out there now.
- 12:07It's not hidden.
- 12:08It's not behind the scenes.
- 12:10People don't hide behind keyboards like they used to anymore.
- 12:13People don't keep it to themselves.
- 12:15They don't sugarcoat it.
- 12:16There's no more passive aggressive approach to racism.
- 12:19It is full blown racism.
- 12:22They're going to say what they want.
- 12:24however they want to say it and to whoever they want to say it to the point blank period you have a whole president having a former president in a meme look him and his wife as a monkey and it's like okay that's
- 12:42where we at now this is this is where we at and so the fact that trump didn't like it didn't shock me but the fact that he just actively Lee
- 12:54rejected the idea of bad bunny performing and then his cronies his little cult followers just followed along and said that was it's a massive mistake why would they choose why would they choose a
- 13:10non-american to perform at the super bowl halftime show and i'm looking around i think back i think back
- 13:21I think back to when I was in the third grade and I don't know why this stick.
- 13:25Well,
- 13:25I do know why it's traumatizing to a degree,
- 13:27but I don't know why it's just at the forefront of my brain.
- 13:32In third grade,
- 13:33I remember a teacher asking the class what century we lived in.
- 13:38And at the time,
- 13:39it was the 20th century.
- 13:41And I raised my hand.
- 13:43I said the 20th.
- 13:44Well,
- 13:44everybody said the
- 13:4619th century,
- 13:47being as though it was 1980 whenever.
- 13:50you
- 13:51I said it was the 20th.
- 13:52The only one in the class who said it was the 20th.
- 13:56I'm like,
- 13:57oh man,
- 13:57I'm the only one that got it right.
- 13:59The teacher said I was wrong.
- 14:01And I was,
- 14:03my mind blew.
- 14:05I just couldn't,
- 14:06I couldn't believe it.
- 14:06And the whole class just jumped on.
- 14:10And it was like,
- 14:11it was,
- 14:11it was Kevin.
- 14:13Kevin's an idiot.
- 14:14Kevin's in the wrong class.
- 14:16He shouldn't be in this class.
- 14:19That has,
- 14:19that has.
- 14:20literally stuck to me or stuck with me till this day and i can't get oh i can't shake it because i have yet to get an apology i have yet to hear that oh kevin you was right now grant has been 40 years but i mean my god man it's i need validation that i was right but
- 14:41all those kids were led wrong by those teachers i say all that to say this number one
- 14:49Puerto Rico is part of the United States.
- 14:53It's a United States territory.
- 14:56And that's how I was looking.
- 14:59when when they said that and i got flashbacks to be sitting in that class where all those kids were saying 19th century we are in the 19th century and i'm looking around like am i the only one and just so happened i was the only one and now you
- 15:17know when this was going on when this narrative was being spread i'm like am i the only one that knows this that puerto rico is a part of the United States.
- 15:30Finally,
- 15:30people started saying it,
- 15:32you know,
- 15:33those of us with sense,
- 15:35and folks still wouldn't accept it.
- 15:39With all that being said,
- 15:41even if it wasn't,
- 15:43even if Bad Bunny isn't a United States citizen,
- 15:47here's the thing.
- 15:49U2 was a headliner at the Super Bowl.
- 15:54They're from Ireland.
- 15:56Coldplay,
- 15:57the Rolling Stones.
- 16:00Paul McCartney,
- 16:01they headlined the Super Bowl.
- 16:04They're from the UK.
- 16:07Just a few years ago,
- 16:08The Weeknd headlined the Super Bowl halftime show.
- 16:12He's from Canada.
- 16:14You didn't hear none,
- 16:16none of this vitriol about non-American performers.
- 16:22But being as though Bad Bunny is a Latino and we're in the midst of this hate.
- 16:29brown people stage here in the united states it's it's like a slap in the face it's an attack on ice but part of that part of that hatred towards him part of that hate him being bad bunny is the fact that he
- 16:46canceled his tour in north america he canceled his tour dates in the united states and i think in canada as well because he didn't want ice
- 16:59to come to his shows and take the patrons,
- 17:04take those who are attending the concert.
- 17:07So to protect his people,
- 17:09he canceled the tour.
- 17:11Now,
- 17:13that is sacrifice that is not celebrated enough.
- 17:19At least not,
- 17:20it's probably celebrated in his culture,
- 17:23with his people,
- 17:25but not amongst others.
- 17:28uh the black community the white community whoever all these communities need to be celebrating this man for making that supreme sacrifice because he lost millions of dollars by doing this but he was willing to lose billions
- 17:44of dollars to protect his people now is bad bunny hurting for money i don't think so i don't think he's hurting for a dime of that But
- 17:58I mean,
- 17:59come on,
- 17:59man.
- 18:00Come on.
- 18:01This dude lost millions of dollars for that cause.
- 18:06My hat truly goes out to him,
- 18:08man.
- 18:10That is phenomenal.
- 18:11Because I don't know.
- 18:12I don't know if I would do that if I was a performing artist.
- 18:19I'll be honest.
- 18:20I don't know if I could,
- 18:21man.
- 18:21That would be,
- 18:22that's huge.
- 18:24That is huge.
- 18:25And if you don't think that's huge,
- 18:27man,
- 18:27just.
- 18:28Just look up Bad Bunny's numbers,
- 18:32concert sellouts,
- 18:33and all this here.
- 18:36Money.
- 18:38Money that he left on the table.
- 18:41But diving into this show.
- 18:43Now,
- 18:46I was going to try to do this whole show without talking about this Turning Point USA halftime alternative thing.
- 18:57the quote-unquote all-american halftime show that they put on simultaneously as the super bowl halftime show to counter the uh bad bunny and i can't you know i can't i can't not talk about it because
- 19:16i i've dedicated the last what year or so not talking about this administration and i know i'm losing a lot of views and listens because of that
- 19:28But once again,
- 19:29that's the sacrifice I'm willing to make because I'm not
- 19:32I'm not giving these people energy.
- 19:34You know,
- 19:35I'm not raising my blood pressure up.
- 19:37It's a lot of things that come up.
- 19:39I wanted to talk about,
- 19:40but I just couldn't.
- 19:41I couldn't bring myself to do it.
- 19:43I honestly couldn't bring myself to do it.
- 19:46But this is so ridiculous here that I have no choice but to talk about these people.
- 19:53They are so blatantly racist and dumb.
- 19:57Of course,
- 19:58you can't be racist without being dumb.
- 20:00So it goes without saying that is dumb.
- 20:03But to put on a halftime show,
- 20:05this alternative halftime show and call it all American and blatantly divide this country.
- 20:13The country's already divided the country.
- 20:15Let's keep it a buck here.
- 20:17The country has always been divided.
- 20:20Now,
- 20:20the only question is,
- 20:21is it divided by two,
- 20:23three,
- 20:24four or five?
- 20:25That's the only question.
- 20:26But the question.
- 20:27that this is not is nothing united about the united states for all of all of my international listeners there's nothing united about this country there's the haves and the have-nots the blacks and the whites the browns in the the uh
- 20:44uh other browns there's colorism there's blacks versus blacks there you know it's it's it's never united here is nothing.
- 20:55Democrats have reported
- 20:56Republicans,
- 20:57liberals,
- 20:57and conservatives.
- 20:59It's ridiculous.
- 21:01It's always a fight.
- 21:03It's always a fight,
- 21:05and it doesn't need to be a fight.
- 21:07Just like this.
- 21:08This didn't need to be.
- 21:10What was the point of putting on another halftime show just to counter-program the halftime show that's on?
- 21:19I mean,
- 21:19honestly,
- 21:20ask yourself the question.
- 21:22Ask yourself,
- 21:23what was so offensive?
- 21:25about watching that halftime show what did bad bunny do that was so offensive or what would well you don't know because you didn't watch you don't even know what he was going to do or what were you so afraid of that he was going to say or do now
- 21:42you don't know what he was going to say because nobody knew what he was going to say that's not a latino because i watched the whole halftime show and didn't understand one word
- 21:54That came out of his mouth.
- 21:56But I enjoyed the heck out of it.
- 21:58It didn't matter.
- 21:59I didn't need to understand what he had to say.
- 22:02It wasn't for me.
- 22:04That wasn't for me.
- 22:06That was for his people.
- 22:09That was for his culture.
- 22:12Shouldn't they have that moment?
- 22:15Blacks had theirs.
- 22:17We've had multiple moments.
- 22:19We've had Kendrick.
- 22:19We've had Beyonce.
- 22:21We've had multiple artists.
- 22:24from our culture to get up there and speak to us,
- 22:29speak,
- 22:29speak to us.
- 22:31You know,
- 22:31that was for us.
- 22:33It was
- 22:34I equated to watching Black Panther for the first time.
- 22:37The first Black Panther with Chadwick Boseman,
- 22:40God rest his soul.
- 22:42Going to the theater and watching that movie is one of the greatest moments of my life.
- 22:49Man,
- 22:49I'm getting I'm getting goosebumps now thinking about I will never forget it.
- 22:53I would never forget the moment of walking into that theater and walking out of that theater with tears in my eyes,
- 23:02just running down my face,
- 23:03didn't care who was watching me because I've been waiting for this moment my entire life.
- 23:11And to finally get it was the greatest joy I have ever received.
- 23:18I didn't get that when Obama won the presidency.
- 23:22I didn't feel like it.
- 23:23you know okay we got a black president good now do the job but this when it came to black panther that representation something that i've been craving for for my entire life yeah i forgot we had blade as a superhero on the big screen but that's blade he's a vampire or
- 23:45at least half vampire you know but to have a proper superhero on the big screen and it was just
- 23:52the greatest joy and a comic that i read coming up oh my god it just i still i still can't get over it to this day it still brightens up my heart i watched it not too long ago i make it a habit to watch it at least once a year since
- 24:09it came out i even watched the second one and i didn't enjoy the second one as much as the first but that's neither here nor there the point i'm trying to make is the Black Panther even though globally
- 24:22I think,
- 24:24what,
- 24:2490%
- 24:25of people love that movie.
- 24:26Black,
- 24:27white,
- 24:27it didn't matter.
- 24:28Everybody loved Black Panther.
- 24:31But that movie wasn't for everybody,
- 24:33per se.
- 24:34It was for us,
- 24:36the black community.
- 24:39And we received it.
- 24:40That movie made over a billion dollars.
- 24:43A billion dollars.
- 24:45Now,
- 24:46same thing for the Latino culture,
- 24:48for the Latino community.
- 24:50That's who this was for.
- 24:52And I respected that.
- 24:54I respect that to the highest level.
- 24:57they deserve it why can't they get their moment but for some strange reason there is a contingence of people in this country six million 6.1 million to be exact who felt and that's just a low ball number because that's who watched who that's how many people actually watched that
- 25:18stupid uh halftime show they put on they felt they didn't deserve that moment and they they didn't deserve their time.
- 25:28for 13 minutes because that's how long that halftime show was
- 25:3213 minutes you couldn't you couldn't just mute it you couldn't just go to the bathroom take that time for the halftime show to run to the store and grab you some more chips grab you another six pack or something and then come back for the second half it
- 25:49was no need to rush because the game was dry and so it wasn't it wasn't like he was going to miss anything.
- 25:56So I don't
- 25:57understand why this was so offensive to these people and why are they actively dividing this country even more than it already is but
- 26:13that's on them as far as the real super bowl halftime show with bad bunny i thought it was phenomenal i thought it was very poignant like i said it's not in my top 10 per se but i
- 26:27I get it and I respect it and I loved it for what it was.
- 26:32That show was phenomenal.
- 26:33He put on a show that was very,
- 26:36very good.
- 26:37Did he play his bangers?
- 26:38He didn't play not one song that I knew.
- 26:40Now,
- 26:41shockingly to me,
- 26:42to my surprise,
- 26:44my daughter knew every song.
- 26:47She was sitting there literally mouthing off the words to the song.
- 26:53I don't know.
- 26:53I didn't know she spoke Spanish,
- 26:55but she was.
- 26:56She was she was rolling with those songs.
- 26:59She loved Bad Bunny.
- 27:01Who knew?
- 27:02But me?
- 27:03No,
- 27:03I didn't know any of those songs.
- 27:05The few songs that I did know,
- 27:07he didn't play.
- 27:08He didn't perform.
- 27:10But
- 27:10I did.
- 27:11I was loving the vibe of it.
- 27:13I love the performance.
- 27:14I love the message that he was sending.
- 27:19The the one thing that that did kind of throw me.
- 27:23And I think a lot of people fell for this.
- 27:25I thought the little boy that he gave the Grammy to was the five-year-old boy that was detained by ICE.
- 27:32And don't get me started on that.
- 27:35But no,
- 27:36it wasn't.
- 27:37It wasn't that little boy.
- 27:38That was an actor.
- 27:42And the whole purpose of that,
- 27:45that little boy was representing him as a little boy watching the Grammys and one day dreaming of winning Grammys.
- 27:52And he actually won Grammys this year.
- 27:55Album of the Year.
- 27:56First Latino star to do that as well.
- 28:00But that was to represent,
- 28:02you know,
- 28:03go after your dreams.
- 28:04And I love that.
- 28:06The wedding that took place in the middle of the performance was an actual real wedding.
- 28:15Those people really got married on the biggest stage of it all.
- 28:21The- the-
- 28:22nucleus of that was that couple invited Bad Bunny to their wedding in Puerto Rico.
- 28:30But he was busy,
- 28:32of course,
- 28:33you know,
- 28:34global superstar.
- 28:35So he couldn't he couldn't do it.
- 28:37But as a consolation prize,
- 28:40he said,
- 28:40well,
- 28:41I can't come to your wedding.
- 28:43But what I'm going to do,
- 28:44I'm going to bring your wedding with me.
- 28:48And he brought them to.
- 28:50the Super Bowl halftime show to have their wedding.
- 28:53Man,
- 28:54this dude is phenomenal.
- 28:56That dude is gay.
- 28:58I can't even front.
- 29:00Bad Bunny is a beast for that.
- 29:03List of cameos we had throughout the performance.
- 29:06We saw Lady Gaga.
- 29:08We saw Ricky Martin,
- 29:10man.
- 29:10Ricky Martin still looks the same.
- 29:13He still living La Vida Loca.
- 29:16He looks deep.
- 29:17I mean,
- 29:18man,
- 29:18that is a...
- 29:19I'm not gay,
- 29:20but that's a good looking man.
- 29:22I was like,
- 29:24man,
- 29:24go ahead,
- 29:24Ricky.
- 29:26Ricky still looks the same after all of these years.
- 29:31Cameos who didn't actually perform,
- 29:33but were out there with
- 29:36Bad Bunny.
- 29:37We saw
- 29:38Jessica Alba.
- 29:39We saw the actress Jessica Alba.
- 29:41We saw Cardi B.
- 29:43We saw Pedro Pascal.
- 29:46Carol G.
- 29:47All of these.
- 29:49of actors and performers,
- 29:53not Puerto Rican,
- 29:55but of the Latino community.
- 29:58And the whole purpose of that was to show that this wasn't just for Puerto Rico,
- 30:05where he's from,
- 30:07even though he deeply represented Puerto Rico.
- 30:10But this is for all the Latino community,
- 30:14for all nations in the Americas,
- 30:19which,
- 30:20oh,
- 30:20my God.
- 30:22When he did that part,
- 30:24I stood up and clapped.
- 30:25I was like.
- 30:26Finally,
- 30:27somebody says it.
- 30:29Somebody said the quiet part out loud.
- 30:32When folks walk around here,
- 30:35talk about this is America.
- 30:37This America,
- 30:38this is my country.
- 30:40America isn't a country.
- 30:42America is a continent.
- 30:45North America and South America.
- 30:48We all want.
- 30:49This country is the United States of America.
- 30:54Canada is America.
- 30:56The United States is America.
- 30:58Mexico is part of America.
- 31:01Cuba.
- 31:03They're all in that same realm.
- 31:06But when he came down and you saw all the flags representing the different countries,
- 31:11we saw representation of
- 31:13Argentina,
- 31:16Bolivia, Peru,
- 31:18Ecuador,
- 31:19Brazil,
- 31:20Colombia,
- 31:21Venezuela,
- 31:23Honduras.
- 31:25Salvador,
- 31:26I mean,
- 31:27all the Dominican Republic.
- 31:29I think I even saw a Jamaican flag.
- 31:31I could have been wrong.
- 31:34But I think I saw a Jamaican flag in there.
- 31:37But all of the flags were represented together.
- 31:42And when he held the ball,
- 31:43he held the football throughout the performance.
- 31:46And when he showed the football to the camera,
- 31:49on the ball written was,
- 31:51Together,
- 31:52we are America.
- 31:54and bro i mean how can you not feel that how can you not feel that we are all together we all want we are all the same people and it's sickening bro it's really sickening that
- 32:11america see got me saying it i've been trained for years but any who's that the united states feel that they run everything we don't run nothing
- 32:24We can't even run ourselves.
- 32:26But for some strange reason,
- 32:28we think we run everything.
- 32:33We are all one,
- 32:34man.
- 32:34And if we could actually get together as one,
- 32:40first start just here in the United States.
- 32:43Just start here,
- 32:44trying to rebuild relations.
- 32:47Try to get the communities to be as one.
- 32:50Then we can reach out to other nations.
- 32:53Then we can reach out to Mexico,
- 32:55you know,
- 32:55Canada,
- 32:56and all of these other countries that are close to Zennity in this continent and become one.
- 33:06Then you can be the most powerful nation in the world.
- 33:09Not now.
- 33:11Now we're public enemy number one.
- 33:13And it's sad,
- 33:14bruh.
- 33:15It's sad that an artist has to perform at a halftime show.
- 33:22and have a political message like this and it's not really a political message it is shaped up to be a political message by the far right but it's really just a human message we're together we're
- 33:37all human beings i don't care what your nationality is what your ethnicity is what your sexuality is we're all human beings and it's sad bro it's just sad to think
- 33:52that this performance got poo-pooed on by people who got their heads stuck so far up their behinds that they can't see the forest for the trees,
- 34:06that they can't see that they are the minority and not the majority,
- 34:13which was shown in the ratings.
- 34:16The performance for the
- 34:17Super Bowl halftime show for Bad Bunny.
- 34:21I think reached a viewership number of one.
- 34:25I saw two different numbers.
- 34:26I saw 134,
- 34:29134 million,
- 34:31and then I saw a number for 128 million.
- 34:34I don't know which one it is.
- 34:36Either way,
- 34:36it is pretty high.
- 34:38Either way,
- 34:38it has some good numbers.
- 34:40But it's definitely better than Turning Point Halftime Show,
- 34:46which only had
- 34:476 million viewership.
- 34:50Who wants to watch Kid Rock?
- 34:52I didn't like Kid Rock when he was relevant.
- 34:56Number one,
- 34:57the number one,
- 34:58he he started off as a rapper.
- 35:01So he he's a culture poacher.
- 35:05And now now all of a sudden he's this whatever he is,
- 35:11whatever.
- 35:11But I don't like never did.
- 35:13So none of this shocks me how Kid Rock is.
- 35:17But in any event,
- 35:19for those of you,
- 35:20for those of you out there who may be listening,
- 35:24I don't know why you are.
- 35:25but i'm happy here uh thank you for checking out the show who who support this crap with uh turning point and the trump coat if you if first and foremost if you got offended about me calling
- 35:40you dumb and stupid and all this here i'm not sorry about that but i'll say this much i would say you're not as dumb as your president because he's the dumbest person ever
- 35:55But being as though he is the dumbest person ever,
- 35:59that makes all of you who support him even dumber.
- 36:03While all of y'all were running out there and supporting this halftime show because Trump said,
- 36:13you know,
- 36:14Bad Bunny is ridiculous and not watching it and all this here.
- 36:18You know who watched the halftime show and immediately tweeted out about it?
- 36:23Donald Trump.
- 36:25And so he didn't even watch the all American halftime show.
- 36:30He was watching bad bunny because he was sitting there tweeting or,
- 36:36whatever social net network he's on or whatever.
- 36:39He called it terrible.
- 36:40One of the worst shows ever.
- 36:42The,
- 36:42the,
- 36:44the women dancing was disgusting.
- 36:47we shouldn't show that to our children and all this here.
- 36:50Really,
- 36:51Donald,
- 36:51really you.
- 36:54you're trying to protect the children all of a sudden president pet pedophile i just found that really really funny that that was the most hilarious thing to come out of that entire entire sunday was
- 37:11his reaction to the super bowl halftime show immediately i would i would have accepted it more had it been the next day you know because he
- 37:21At least he could say I didn't watch it live or something like that.
- 37:24No,
- 37:26the second half of the game was starting and he was tweeting,
- 37:32which tells me he watched it live.
- 37:37This dude is so much of a hypocrite and a liar and people just fall for it every single time.
- 37:46Everything that come out of his mouth is gospel.
- 37:50It is so scary that y'all look at this band like,
- 37:54God,
- 37:57my goodness,
- 37:58man.
- 38:00But with all that being said,
- 38:03the Bad Bunny halftime show,
- 38:05I believe,
- 38:06was a triumph,
- 38:08a very,
- 38:10very well produced,
- 38:13well choreographed,
- 38:15very poignant halftime show that.
- 38:18Yes,
- 38:19it was political,
- 38:20but it wasn't political.
- 38:22You know,
- 38:23it was entertaining and it showcased the Latin culture.
- 38:29And I think that's what really that's the one thing that really came home for me.
- 38:34Yes.
- 38:35The message of unity and love was there.
- 38:37It was prevalent and it needed to be there.
- 38:40But the showcase of the community was so beautiful because it just shows that.
- 38:48they aren't just you know trash people that they are being depicted at they aren't just criminals and murderers and rapists as they're being described on the news and all this here they are people
- 39:05just like me and you just like when i see my culture the black community showcased in the spotlight like that it brings joy to my heart you know
- 39:17with all of these communities that are underrepresented in the spotlight,
- 39:25it's great to see them get their moment of shine.
- 39:28And I'm happy for the Latino community that they finally got their moment.
- 39:33And I pray that this isn't the last.
- 39:36I deeply enjoyed.
