Martínez Ocasio), focusing on his cultural and political significance. By looking at the history of Puerto Rico with a deliberate focus on the last thirty years and putting the archipelago's major crises in dialogue with Bad Bunny's life and career, the authors demonstrate that understanding Bad Bunny's work requires a deep understanding of Puerto Rican history. Vanessa Díaz and Petra R. Rivera-Rideau focus on key events such as the Puerto Rican debt crisis, Hurricane María, the mass protests in Puerto Rico in 2019, and current battles against gentrification across the archipelago. P FKN R explores how Bad Bunny's work has engaged with or is reflective of these moments-from his release of songs connected to the crises, to his participation in demonstrations, to his production of films about Puerto Rico's most pressing issues. Diaz and Rivera-Rideau outline the many ways in which Puerto Rico's people have resisted colonial rule, including through music. Bad Bunny's work is thus presented as part of the long history of Puerto Rican music as a form of resistance to colonial domination"--
