00:00We're here at the Barclays Center.
00:02We're here in Brooklyn, man.
00:04How much time do you have before your concert?
00:06We have a couple of hours,
00:08like four or four hours.
00:10All right. And this is the first of three shows
00:12that you have here, right?
00:14That's right.
00:16Okay. Now, the most wanted tour is your fifth
00:18and last one, right?
00:20Yeah.
00:22And the most wanted tour is your fifth
00:24and last one, right?
00:26Yeah.
00:28Okay. Now, the most wanted tour is your fifth
00:30concert tour. What does a typical day look like
00:32on this tour?
00:34Tranquilito. Me levanto,
00:36desayuno, entreno, me hago un café,
00:38me baño,
00:40y pa'l venue.
00:42What is the one thing you do all the time
00:44before every show?
00:46Este...
00:48Realmente descansar.
00:50Yo llego, descanso, trato de no ponerme
00:52mucha presión y estar metido en la red
00:54detrás, pero no hago mucho.
00:56What is the first step in putting together
00:58an album tour?
01:00Este...
01:02Yo creo que lo primero es tener las ganas
01:04de hacer música y tener
01:06un sentimiento, un pensamiento,
01:08algo que decir. No ser cualquier loquero.
01:10Wow. Look at this art over here.
01:12Bienvenidos a Brooklyn.
01:14Bienvenidos a Brooklyn.
01:16I love it.
01:18Wow.
01:20How has this tour been
01:22different than years past?
01:24Mano,
01:26cada tour tiene algo especial y algo
01:28diferente. Yo creo que este
01:30podría ser el que me siento
01:32más... con más experiencia, más
01:34relajado.
01:36Benito, last year you said your favorite show
01:38on World's Hottest Tour was in Argentina.
01:40Has any show
01:42on this tour topped that
01:44experience whatsoever?
01:46Está difícil.
01:48Argentina...
01:50Argentina es un crowd bien distinto.
01:52Eso es otra cosa.
01:54They love you down there.
01:56Pero Nueva York... Nueva York es de los mejores.
01:58Aquí en Estados Unidos, Nueva York es
02:00top.
02:02Wow, this is amazing. Hermoso.
02:04Beautiful.
02:06Yo, Benito, check out the Vogue up top.
02:08Look at that. Amazing.
02:10Ah, mira.
02:12Había visto eso.
02:14Must be incredible.
02:16Now for all of us who don't know what it's like being on that stage,
02:18how would you describe being in front of all those people?
02:20¿Qué te puedo decir?
02:22Se siente cabrón, real. Tanta gente.
02:24Saber que lo lograste.
02:26Siempre se siente...
02:28es lindo.
02:30Now what do you want fans to get out of this
02:32experience?
02:34Bueno, que se disfruten
02:36la noche. Es lo más...
02:38Es lo único que yo espero.
02:40Que se lleven un momento lindo, que puedan
02:42recordar para siempre.
02:44Can you describe what your first live performance
02:46was like?
02:48La primera vez que yo...
02:50En un lugar mucho
02:52más pequeño que esto.
03:02Oh my God.
03:04Ya entendí.
03:10Oh my God, that scared the hell out of me.
03:12Messi or Maradona?
03:14Diablo.
03:16Messi or Maradona?
03:18Diablo, en verdad no me quiero
03:20meter en problemas, pero...
03:22He visto más a Messi jugar, a Maradona pues...
03:24Cerveza medalla or
03:26Corona?
03:28Agua.
03:30Tripletas o arroz con habichuelas?
03:32Tripleta, no me gustan las habichuelas.
03:34Brito, why do you delete your Instagram photos?
03:38Joder.
03:40How has acting influenced your musical career?
03:44Yo diría que mucho.
03:46Yo me la vivo mucho cuando estoy grabando,
03:48cuando estoy en la tarima.
03:50Es como una interpretación así.
03:54What would be your dream character to play?
03:58Hola!
04:02Mano, no sé. Batman, Spiderman.
04:04If you starred in a biopic,
04:06whose life would you portray?
04:08Mmm...
04:10La vida del
04:12padre Alberto.
04:14Do you have a specific wellness routine
04:16while on tour?
04:18I'm sorry?
04:20Do you have a wellness routine?
04:22Bueno, sí.
04:24Yo me doy mis masajitos,
04:26me hidrato bien, me estiro,
04:28me tratan bonito.
04:30How many hours of sleep are you getting?
04:34Yo estoy durmiendo alrededor de...
04:36Yo lo que duermo son como
04:38cinco, cuatro horas.
04:40No duermo mucho, pero descanso bien.
04:42Yo siento que esas cuatro, cinco horas me bastan.
04:44Necesito ocho horas.
04:46¿Tú necesitas ocho?
04:48Sí.
04:50Soy viejo.
04:52What was your first big purchase
04:54that you've ever made?
04:58Yo gastaba mucho antes en gafas,
05:00pero así bien loco, yo no gasto.
05:02Yo soy un tipo que ahorra el Bugatti.
05:06What purchase do you regret
05:08the most?
05:10El Bugatti.
05:12No, no, en verdad.
05:14No sé.
05:16Yo me arrepiento de
05:18hay cosas que me las compre
05:20y a la media hora ya me arrepiento.
05:22What was the last purchase you made
05:24at a supermarket?
05:26Una comprita
05:28así como de chuchería
05:30con filé, quesito,
05:32agüita.
05:34Who is your favorite Pokémon character?
05:40Charmander
05:42y Charizard.
05:44I'm friends with the voice of Ash Ketchum.
05:46Oh, wow.
05:48Mándale saludos en mi parte.
05:50¿Estás OK con que yo haga un par de preguntas en español?
05:52Yeah, yeah, of course.
05:54Yo aprendí un poco en la escuela hace muchos...
05:56I see, I see. Oh, my God.
05:58Sí, estoy bien.
06:00¿Qué ha sido lo más complicado
06:02de aprender inglés?
06:06Most complicated...
06:08Yo eso había sido aprendiendo
06:10yo...
06:12A mí me gusta hablar inglés en privado.
06:14No en las cámaras ni por ahí.
06:16No, no hay nada
06:18que yo te pueda decir lo más complicado.
06:20No hay algo que yo diga,
06:22lo más complicado específico.
06:24Yo creo que
06:26a veces transmitir
06:28los sentimientos,
06:30porque yo pienso de verdad,
06:32porque yo pienso y siento en español.
06:34Yo cuando traduzco ese sentimiento
06:36y ese pensamiento en inglés, no es lo mismo.
06:38¿Es difícil?
06:40Eso es lo más difícil.
06:42¿La palabra más difícil de decir en inglés?
06:44Todita, todita.
06:46Todita las palabras son difíciles.
06:48¿Qué slang de Puerto Rico
06:50es comúnmente malentendido
06:52en otros países?
06:54¿Slang de Puerto Rico?
06:56Mano, nosotros tenemos un montón de slang
06:58y a veces no entienden.
07:00Pero yo creo que es bicho.
07:02La confunden mucho.
07:04No saben lo que es bicho en PR
07:06y ahí se guayan.
07:08Benito, ¿te gustan
07:10trabalenguas?
07:12¿Los quieres intentar?
07:16Qué random.
07:18Ok.
07:20Primero en español.
07:22Este diablo.
07:28Lo lo lo lo lo lo.
07:40Tres tristes tigres
07:42tragaban trigo en un trigal
07:44en tres tristes trastos.
07:46Tragaban trigo tres tristes tigres.
07:48Más rápido.
07:50Diablo.
07:54No sé para qué calenté,
07:56Tres tristes tigres tragaban trigo...
08:03Ahora dice más lento, no me sale, verdad.
08:06Tres tristes tigres tragaban trigo en un trigal
08:09Tres tristes tratos tragaban trigo
08:12La fuerza que tengo en la mañana
08:14No, no, no voy a trases
08:16Alright I'll try the one in English
08:18Oh, Benito Bad Bunny Bounce Back to Bouncy Blubber Bunny Bar.
08:26Faster.
08:28Benito Bad Bunny Bounce Back to Bouncy Blubber Bunny Bar.
08:31Ay!
08:32Oh, man.
08:33The English made it easier for me. What the hell.
08:35Your fans are joking about your appointment for governor of Puerto Rico.
08:40What would be the motto of your campaign?
08:45Man, first of all, I wouldn't run for governor.
08:48But if I had to pick one, I don't know, man.
08:52I don't have a motto.
08:53My campaign would be to run for governor and have a twin.
08:57That's my campaign.
09:00Okay, well.
09:01What do you like the most about Vega Baja in Puerto Rico?
09:05The beach.
09:07The beach?
09:08Vega Baja's beach.
09:09The sun is so beautiful.
09:10Next.
09:11Can you show me a hidden talent?
09:15What is this? I'm confused.
09:16Where are we?
09:18I'm on the couch.
09:20No.
09:24Nobody knows what's going to happen tomorrow is your fifth studio album.
09:27Why did you want to release this album before you turned 30?
09:33I don't know, because I think there are a lot of things that I say in the album
09:41that I don't want to say after I'm 30.
09:44I don't know, the mood is like...
09:46Now, after I'm 30, I want to focus on other things,
09:51on other stages, musical, mental, spiritual, loving.
09:56Many different things that I don't identify with in this album.
10:01That's super interesting.
10:03Now, what inspired you to sample Madonna's Vogue in Vogue 787?
10:09I really liked the music of that time,
10:14especially with that sound from the 80s, 90s, early.
10:19And Madonna came up like...
10:22I was in the studio, I started sampling Vogue's song
10:28and I started singing the chorus like...
10:30Now I'm a model.
10:32It's like a super natural trip.
10:37Who is the most underrated reggaeton artist?
10:41Julio Gortio.
10:44And what's your favorite song lyric someone else has written?
10:51Dianches.
10:53I listen to La Perla by Calle 13,
10:56René Residente with Rubén Blas.
10:58I listen to it and I say,
10:59Damn, that song...
11:02Whose opinion do you take most seriously
11:04when it comes to your music?
11:09There are many people.
11:10It's like a...
11:14a round table.
11:16My friends all have different tastes
11:19and different flow.
11:21Each opinion is like...
11:23I take it as if it were from a different sector of the population.
11:28Each one of the people...
11:30I have a very specific group of people
11:32that I always show my stuff to,
11:34because I don't show it to many people either.
11:36It's always very few.
11:37With that, I'm very picky.
11:39And...
11:42each one of them is important.
11:44You revealed that out of any English-speaking song,
11:47you knew the lyrics best to Break Free by Ariana Grande.
11:50It's a great song.
11:51Do you have any new tracks to add to that list?
11:56No.
11:57I have to learn a new song in English.
12:00Yeah.
12:01Why was it important for you to go to college?
12:05Very important.
12:06Not only...
12:08I've always said that education is paramount.
12:11Education separates you from the rest.
12:16In addition to the experiences you live,
12:19part of life.
12:22But I've always said,
12:24from the beginning of my career,
12:26education is like...
12:30it separates you and prepares you for many things.
12:35And I think that for me,
12:37having studied, finished school,
12:40and even though I didn't finish college,
12:42the two and a half years I've spent
12:46have helped me in my career.
12:50What song were you most excited to play for your mom?
12:56That's right.
12:58For my mom?
12:59From this album,
13:00she likes More A Summer Without You.
13:03That's what she likes.
13:04From this album,
13:05tonight, I don't know.
13:07I don't have one to tell you.
13:09What was the last argument that you had
13:11with one of your brothers?
13:23Well, hopefully you won the argument.
13:29Alright, so how long does it take for you to get ready every day?
13:32Or get ready for every concert?
13:34Every day? Every concert?
13:36I don't know.
13:38About ten minutes.
13:39I get dressed quickly.
13:41I get ready quickly.
13:59We've been planning this.
14:01We have the clothes and we say,
14:03which one are we going to wear to New York?
14:05We have this that Gaudi made for us.
14:06It's super cute.
14:09This is the one we wear in LA.
14:11I don't know if I'll wear it here in New York
14:13or if we'll go with this one.
14:16I don't know yet.
14:17I'll tell you later.
14:18I haven't decided yet.
14:24Not many.
14:27I basically put on the same look every night.
14:31One to start with.
14:32In fact, we change for each other.
14:35But it's almost always the same.
14:36These ones change colors.
14:39But I try to keep the same vibe,
14:41the same aesthetic,
14:42and not change it much.
14:55Well, sometimes we do it,
14:57sometimes they do it.
14:59But almost always,
15:00just like with music,
15:01it's based on connection and feelings.
15:06I feel identified with the brand,
15:10with the designer,
15:11with what he does,
15:12that I use it,
15:13that I like it.
15:14I don't want to do it for the sake of doing it.
15:23How does it feel?
15:26It's comfortable.
15:27I thought it would be uncomfortable
15:28because of all the little things.
15:30And it's comfortable.
15:31Benito, how do you have so much flow?
15:34What can I tell you?
15:39I don't know.
15:40I don't think about that.
15:41You should ask the people.
15:52When I said that,
15:55I don't know.
15:56From Jan's closet
15:57or Marvin's,
15:58I had a couple of presents.
16:00I have a big stomach.
16:02I'll take it.
16:14Man, eat before you go there
16:15because the food is expensive
16:17and they serve it cold.
16:18It sucks.
16:25What is your process like
16:26for choosing your Met Gala look?
16:29I think it's the opportunity to improvise.
16:34You can't improvise a lot for the Met.
16:37For other Red Carpets,
16:38if I want to go to the Boss,
16:40I go to the Boss.
16:42That's it.
16:43Now, last year you said
16:44that you carry around your essentials
16:45in a Nintendo Game Boy handbag.
16:47How do you carry around
16:48your essentials now?
16:55I carry around gum,
16:57mint,
16:58perfume,
17:00and a card.
17:02I'm not a profilastic,
17:05just in case.
17:13What did I say?
17:18The barber from the tour
17:19who has been with us for a couple of years,
17:21the guys brought him.
17:23What did I say in Monaco?
17:24In Monaco, I say,
17:26more than you,
17:27my barber is charging me.
17:29That's as far as the bar reaches.
17:31The rest,
17:32the rest I say,
17:33I say about myself.
17:34I'm not going to get in trouble with the barber.
17:36People think he's out there doing things.
17:38But, man,
17:40I've had a lot of barbers
17:42since I was a kid.
17:43Shout out to them,
17:44to Tito,
17:45to Lai.
17:46I cut my hair a couple of times.
17:48That's in the neighborhood.
17:51All right, let's keep this going.
17:52Rapid fire.
17:54Dominoes or chess?
17:58Dominoes, man.
17:59Past albums,
18:00forever,
18:01or I do whatever I want?
18:05God knows.
18:06Tough one.
18:07I prefer,
18:08I prefer,
18:11the last tour
18:12or a summer without you.
18:14Okay.
18:16But Negro or Monaco?
18:19Diablo.
18:22Monaco.
18:23Me too, me too.
18:25You too?
18:26Me too.
18:27Now, you got your name
18:28by sharing a picture of yourself
18:29wearing a bunny suit.
18:30Do you still have the bunny suit?
18:32The bunny suit?
18:33Yeah.
18:34No, no.
18:35I have no idea
18:36where that is right now.
18:37I have the picture,
18:38but not the bunny suit.
18:40Okay.
18:41Now, what was the last piece of clothing
18:43or accessory that you purchased?
18:46Mano, a Prada coat
18:48that I bought recently
18:49right here in New York
18:50and these glasses
18:51that look really cool.
18:53I'm sure they are.
18:54What is the best piece
18:55of fashion advice or wisdom
18:56that someone's ever shared with you?
18:58About fashion?
19:00I don't know.
19:01I don't think so.
19:02I don't think anyone's ever
19:03given me a fashion tip,
19:04but if someone does,
19:05they should give it to me.
19:06Someone who's good.
19:07No, no.
19:08Wait, Benito,
19:09what do you think of
19:10what I'm wearing right now?
19:11Do you think I look fashionable?
19:16You look good.
19:17You look good.
19:18You look good,
19:19but we can squeeze it.
19:20You love sports.
19:21Are you seeing any games
19:22when you're in Brooklyn?
19:23Of course.
19:24Yeah?
19:25Last night,
19:26there was a Yankees game
19:27against the Marlins
19:28that the Yankees lost.
19:29Aaron George
19:30didn't make it
19:31in the last round.
19:32And I played against
19:33one of the Knicks
19:34and, okay,
19:35yes, it was awesome.
19:36Formula 1.
19:37Do you think
19:38this is the year for Checo?
19:40Any year.
19:41Any year he says.
19:42Last year,
19:43it was awesome.
19:44This year,
19:45we'll see.
19:46All right.
19:47Now, you've broken records
19:48throughout your career.
19:49What is next for Bad Bunny?
19:50What's next?
19:56Man, I never,
19:57I'm always thinking
19:58about what I'm going to do next,
19:59but I never say it
20:00to surprise him.
20:02But,
20:03as I've always said,
20:04no, no, no, no.
20:06Coming from your question,
20:07I'm not trying to break
20:08any records.
20:09All I want is to enjoy
20:10what I do,
20:12to enjoy
20:13making songs,
20:14enjoying it,
20:15singing it with people.
20:16That's all I ask for.
20:18Last question.
20:19Question number 73.
20:20Where am I sitting
20:21for the concert tonight?
20:23Well,
20:25we have that chair
20:26there that looks
20:27the most comfortable.
20:29You can sit up there.
20:30You're going to put me
20:31up there?
20:32But there it looks
20:33awesome,
20:34don't believe me.
20:35Wherever you want,
20:36wherever you want.
20:37I want to ride
20:38on the horse.
20:39Thanks.
20:40Have a good concert.
20:41Good luck.
20:43Thank you.
