Bad Bunny is wrapping up his record-breaking world tour in Puerto Rico, where the event has become one of the most sought-after shows across the globe. He elevated the experience even further by bringing out an impressive lineup of special guests.
He kicked things off by welcoming rising Puerto Rican group Chuwi to the stage, where they performed their featured part on “WELTiTA” from DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS. Bad Bunny later brought out Dei V, who arrived in a jeep to deliver his verse on “VeLDÁ.”
For Night 1 of his Puerto Rico shows, Bad Bunny reached back into his catalog to perform the classic “Diles,” the 2016 track that played a major role in launching his career. The reggaeton anthem features some of the genre’s biggest names, and Benito gave fans a nostalgic moment by reuniting with nearly all of the featured artists—Arcángel, Ñengo Flow, and Farruko—while Ozuna was the only one absent.
After the performance, Bad Bunny paused to celebrate the artists and acknowledge their impact on his journey.
“I have songs with all these guys. I have enough songs with them to make another concert.”
He followed the tribute by performing a cappella renditions of “Krippy Kush” and “La Cartera” alongside Farruko. Benito ended the special moment by encouraging the audience to show appreciation for one of the artists who supported him during the early stages of his career. “I want you to feel the love for this legend that is here next to me.”
Benito then took a heartfelt moment to recognize how the artists beside him played a major role in helping him break into the music industry nearly a decade earlier. “I want you to show some love to these legends standing here beside me,” he told the crowd. “Ten years ago, they opened the doors of music for me by supporting me on this song.”
He began by honoring Farruko, reflecting on one of his first major moments on stage. “The first time I stepped on that Choliseo stage was at the concert of this man standing right here,” he shared. He also credited Arcángel for guiding him early in his career and praised Ñengo Flow as “a legend” from Puerto Rico who played a key role in his journey.
Bad Bunny also made sure to acknowledge Ozuna, the only “Diles” collaborator who was not present for the reunion. “My respect to Ozuna, who is not here tonight,” he said, before expressing gratitude to his former label Hear This Music and early collaborators DJ Luian and Mambo Kingz.
However, Benito’s greatest appreciation was reserved for his homeland. “My respect and my greatest love is you, Puerto Rico,” he said. “Because without you, this wouldn’t have been real.”
He closed out the emotional tribute by celebrating the Puerto Rican legends who supported him throughout his rise, saying, “Without you, this wouldn’t have been real. I want you to feel the love. ‘Ñengo Flow, Real G4 Life. Arcángel La Maravilla, and Farruko!’”
The nostalgic energy continued when Arcángel joined him again, with the two performing several of their collaborations, including 2016’s “Tú No Vive Así” and 2022’s “La Jumpa.”
Another surprise appearance came from Bad Bunny’s longtime partner Gabriela Berlingeri, who joined the show to perform the chorus of “LO QUE LE PASÓ A HAWAii” near the end of the night.
Throughout the tour, Benito has been reaching deep into his discography to perform a special track in each city—songs that fans at other stops do not get the chance to hear. For Puerto Rico, he delivered two exclusive performances: “Ser Bichote” from his 2018 debut album X 100PRE and “Vuelve Candy B” from his 2023 project nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana.
Beyond the unforgettable musical moments, the deeper message behind the show became clear when the Puerto Rican superstar delivered a passionate speech addressing the island’s ongoing water and electricity struggles. “I can’t bring water to those who don’t have water. I can’t bring electricity to people whose power goes out every day. what I want to give you today is a little bit of joy…” he told the crowd.
