Im gonna be honest, having Bad Bunny perform the halftime show is one of the dumbest decisions Ive ever seen. Having him perform the halftime show when 90% of the people dont know Spanish is just a terrible move
I don't understand how anyone can possibly care about this. For example, I love Yellow Ledbetter but cant comprehend a [censored] word in it

Should've been Metallica but for some reason the NFL targets the casuals.
I'm a major Metallica fan. Saw the 'And Justice For All' tour at Nassau Coliseum, and went to the listening party for the 'black' album at MSG(A mosh pit actually developed......for an album listening party!!!! Memories!), but even if they just did their covers of 'tame' songs like Bob Seger's: 'Turn the page,' or Thin Lizzy's: 'Whiskey in the jar,' or their 'tame' stuff like: 'Nothing else matters,' hardcore fans would want the heavier stuff like 'The 4 horsemen,' or even 'Battery,' pronounced 'Bat-ta-ray,' when sung, for those who never heard it, lol.
What does Metallica have to do with Baseball?
The Battery, of course 🤪
Bad Bunny? I hear he had a wicked Curveball.... -
I'm interested to see who they choose in the future. Taylor Swift, Metallica, and Foo Fighters have all basically said no. The pop / top 40 industry doesn't really generate mega stars like they did back with Prince / MJ. There's more of a shift toward viral online one-hit wonders (e.g. ABCDEFU). Billie Eilish and Sabrina Carpenter don't really have the resume for it yet (then again, did the Weeknd?) Any rock band past or present seems like a no.
Who's next?

But The Weeknd had "Blinding Lights", which would have been freaking great if there was a full crowd, and Billie and Sabrina have not had a juggernaut like that song was.

The ONLY bunny who belongs associated with baseball is Buggs Bunny and his epic changeup!

That's because the music executives now have a death grip on the industry and refuse to let loose. Musical acts sign an initial contract where the vast majority of their profits are kept by the label. When they get to a point where they could negotiate a new contract on better terms, nearly all of these acts find themselves released from their contracts.
Today, the most talents acts just market their music directly online. The industry is replete with PC-based autotuning software that turns off key singers into perfect note maestros. The software is now even used on instruments. The industry would likely use AI to just artificially generate music in the future, but right now calculate the market isn't ready for that, but it's coming soon.

Also cant forget the handful of times James and Kirk played the National Anthem at Oracle Park

Still baffled at the notion of having an American perform (that sings in Spanish because its the primary language in his territory) is somehow less American than some old brit rocker.
I don't like the dude's music but he put on a great show, it was better than the game itself (not saying much)
-
People have been going to the opera for centuries without understanding the language. Music is a universal language. Also… who cares?

Wonder why he doesn’t go by el conejillo malo?

@SchnauzerFace_MLBTS
With opera, the is beautiful singing and instrumental music to listen to. With Bad Bunny, he's just chanting Spanish into a microphone. At the opera, you can understand what's going on without knowing the language, but with Spanish rap, you have no idea what's being said if you don't know Spanish -

Bawitdaba, da-bang, da-bang, diggy-diggy-diggy
Said the boogie, said up drop the boogie

Same, although I did hear how bad of a lip syncing job Kid Rock did. To be honest, most live performances now are lip synced, Kid Rock just did a bad job of it -

And those people can speak Spanish. -

How about we collectively learn Spanish? Anyone? Anyone? No one? Ah [censored]…

It was visually pretty spectacular and an obvious celebration of Puerto Rican culture.
Light years beyond Kendrick or Usher's halftimes, maybe not quite as good as Dre. Really only held back because I dont think Bad Bunny has a good vocal presence (especially when put next to Gaga and Ricky Martin in that set)
Nothing will top Prince though. that was next level.
