Conoce al talentoso artista Bad Bunny, aquel niño llamado Benito del barrio Almirante Sur de Vega Baja, Puerto Rico. El mayor de tres hermanos, Benito se crio en una familia que valoraba la música, las obras de caridad y mantenerse fiel a uno mismo; creencias que lleva consigo hasta hoy. Tras su ascenso a la fama en 2017, Bad Bunny fue reconocido como el Rey del Trap Latino y se convirtió en el primer artista de habla no inglesa en ser uno de los más escuchados del mundo. Después de apariciones memorables en Saturday Night Live, papeles en películas como Happy Gilmore 2 y una residencia histórica en el Coliseo de Puerto Rico José Miguel Agrelot, Bad Bunny se ha convertido en un emblema para su generación.

Hispanic Star celebra con orgullo a los héroes hispanos y latinos que han hecho contribuciones notables a la cultura estadounidense y han sido fuerzas innegables en la formación de su futuro.
