The 68th annual GRAMMY Awards are officially underway, and one of the most nominated artists of the night is Bad Bunny, who earned six nominations. He entered the night already making history as the first Spanish-language artist nominated across all three of the Grammys’ “Big Three” categories: Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year, and he’s already won 2 for Best Global Music Performance for “EoO” and Best Música Urbana Album. With his Super Bowl halftime show around the corner, he’s undoubtedly one of the most popular artists inside the Crypto.com Arena, and he’s making friends.

Bad Bunny wasn’t without friends. He linked up with J Balvin, his long-time friend and collaborator. They first connected in the mid-2010s and collaborated on “Si Tu Novio Te Deja Sola,” “I Like It,” and their 2019 joint album OASIS. There’s no doubt that they’ve helped push Spanish-language music further into the global mainstream.
