Oh, So; "Dancehall," Per Anglaise.

Meaning that if you've not understood the lyrics. Don't worry, you've not missed much.
The music they play at the halls where people go to dance, and try to have sex with each other is hardly the Human condition at its most sophisticated. Really the polar opposite of Kendrick Lamar's fancy, Pulitzer Prize winning, wordplay.
Although, even from a young age it was clear that Bad Bunny was far too sensitive and intellectual for all that Machismo, some of it toxic. Particularly the Misogyny. Particularly the Homophobia.
To the point his Auntie was forced to ask the same questions J.D Vance's Grandmamma was forced to ask of him.

Although I should point out that The Half-Time Show (2026) was barely 13 minutes. While the official video for El Apagón was over 20, or so.
Including far higher journalistic standards than I've come to expect from BBC 'News'(!). Even if it has left me with a robust desire to dispute an Afro-Dominican's claim to be; "Indigenous."
Although the song itself is a hardly complex 4 minutes. The male voice is the Gentrifier, the immigrant (Logan Paul). While the female voice is Puerto Rico itself.
A play on that old trope of a city's; "Whoredom." Which has certainly existed since the first, Koine, translations of the Book of Isaiah. Which I most recently discussed in relation to; "Metropolis" (1927). Even if I'm yet to be convinced Bad Bunny even knows that's what he was doing. He certainly seems more of a doer, than a Communist.
Yeah. I get that now.

Although one of the last things I remember was her trying to palm me off onto her younger sister.
So this could definitely get weird!
It is such a shame we're forbidden, by law, from even exchanging Easter Eggs these days.
Rihanna certainly seems to have been elevated, amongst the SIDS.
