El Apagón : Aqui vive gente by Benito MartínezThis music video by Bad Bunny is a message that he is sending to everyone that doesn’t understand his music and how severely damaged his home is becoming. In the music video, he portrays multiple issues that Puerto Ricans are facing due to Americans especially the rich. People move to the island because they don’t have to pay as many taxes, but they destroy the land and buy properties where people have been living all their lives, leaving them without a home. He also states “Aquí el calor es diferente , elsol es taíno . La capital del perreo ahora todos quieren ser latino,No!” His music has become very popular, and a lot of people want to pretend that they love Latinos and their culture hence he says, “noweveryone wants to be Latino, no!”.It is amazing how he sticks to his roots and he doesn’t want other people to pretend that they want tobe a part of it when the only thing they do is take advantage of his beautiful home island. Puerto Rico signed a contract with a private electricity company called Luma, and they promised that the energy efficiency would improve; however, they are experiencing more blackouts than ever before. I love how he shares information through a music video and how he exposes the reality of Puerto Ricans. This video is amazing and educational it illuminates the sad reality many people are living not only in Puerto Rico but all over Latin America.https://youtu.be/1TCX_Aqzoo4 Please watch!
