Bad Bunny Reminds Puerto Ricans What They’re Made of in AOTY Grammys Speech: ‘There’s Nothing We Can’t Accomplish’

Bad Bunny won three Grammys including Album of the Year for his fully Spanish-language album, dedicating his win to Puerto Rico, immigrants, and Latino artists.

  • At the Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 1, Bad Bunny won album of the year for DeBÍ TÍRAR MÁS FOToS, his sixth studio album released last January.
  • After winning two awards earlier that night, including best música urbana album and best global music performance, Bunny's DeBi Tirar Mas Fotos spent a full month atop the Billboard 200.
  • Visibly emotional and bilingual, he received the gramophone from Harry Styles and paid homage to Puerto Rico, his mother, and migrants in his acceptance speech.
  • The win increases his awards tally, bringing Bunny's total to seven Grammy wins to date and boosting his profile ahead of the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
  • Against a broader political backdrop, the Grammys hosted by Trevor Noah at Crypto.com Arena unfold amid backlash over the Super Bowl booking and at a crucial time for the Latin American community.
