This book explores Bad Bunny as a multifaceted signifier whose meanings evolve depending on the generational, geographical, and sociopolitical perspectives framing the enigma.
This collection offers the first comprehensive analysis of Bad Bunny’s impact on music, culture, and politics. Exploring his gender-fluid style, Afro-Caribbean aesthetics, and critiques of colonialism, the book highlights his role in amplifying marginalized voices. With contributions from diverse scholars, it presents a balanced view of his influence on intersectional resistance. The chapters examine whether Bad Bunny represents a cultural shift or a fleeting moment, positioning him as a multifaceted figure in contemporary culture and activism.

Sheilla R. Madera is professor at Florida International University. Nelson Varas-Díaz is professor at Florida International University. Daniel Nevárez Araújo is assistant professor at the University of Puerto Rico.
