Bad Bunny. Is it cultural or geopolitical?

I'm not here to start anything, but simply don't understand the choosing of this artist for the Superbowl.  He doesn't sing in English.  I've been blasted on other platforms for being racist, old and out of touch.  To me, it's the demographic.  I'm being told the demographic is not what I believe it is.  I don't get it..

I will probably skip the half-time show. I don't speak Spanish. Bad Bunny can speak English, but has insisted that all of his music be in Spanish. I can't see him changing his commitment to his native language, and that's fine. However, I would not enjoy the show if I had no idea what the lyrics were.

I wonder if they may have two performers? I believe they've done this before.

Music has splintered into so many sub genres, since the internet and streaming changed the nature of what a hit song is and who hears it.

It's really difficult to find a performer who is young and relevant, and known by everyone in the family. Some few do break out, but to find someone that for example the players would think was cool, and mom and dad at home with the kids all can sing along with is kinda impossible now.

And that's gonna be an ongoing problem even after Bad Bunny does his thing.

Bad Bunny is top of the charts worldwide.  Leave the country and watch a music channel and you will see the name.   When I was in a resort pool bar in Cabo, I loved the music.  

The timing seems political, but who knows.  Just remember people are easier to control when divided, so everything these days will be polarized.  

I will enjoy it like every superbowl.  Watch a little ofnthe game and enjoy the food, drinks, and people.
