Bad Bunny, the most influential artist of the year: all the records he broke in 2022

Since he began his musical career, year after year Bad Bunny managed to stand out and make history. However, 2022 was different because he set more than ten records thanks to his music.

In May, the Puerto Rican released his album “Un Verano Sin Ti”, which debuted as the most listened to on Spotify the day it was released: it achieved 183 million streams in 24 hours, surpassing Drake’s mark with “Certified Lover Boy”. , which had 176.8 million.

“The success of this album, the way in which you have accepted and lived ALL THE SONGS, has been crazy!!! And it’s just the beginning. I am happy and grateful !!! ”, the artist wrote on his Instagram profile as soon as this information was known.

At the end of October of this same year, Taylor Swift took away that trophy by achieving 184.6 million views with the release of her work “Midnights”.

This album also became the second album in Spanish to reach the Top 1 in the history of Billboard United States: the first was “EL ÚLTIMO TOUR DEL MUNDO”, also by Benito.

To this is added that the 23 songs that make it up took over the Billboard Hot 100 list, which became the largest number of simultaneous entries to that ranking by an artist who sings entirely in Spanish.

The fruits of this study work in the life of Bad Bunny continue, because it is the first album entirely in Spanish that achieved a Grammy nomination.

In addition, “Un Verano Sin Ti” allowed him to become the owner of five of the six Latin albums with the highest performance on its opening day within Apple Music worldwide.

“Titi asked me” is the most listened to song this year and Bad Bunny, for the third time in a row, the most listened to artist in the world. In August of this year he made history by being the first non-English speaking singer to win the Best Artist of the Year award at the MTV Music Awards.

“I have no words to describe what I feel, the pride I feel (…) I always believed from the beginning that I could be great, that I could be one of the biggest stars in the world without having to change my culture, my language, my language, my slang”, he said that night when thanking.

That same month, he raised $11,525,000 in the concert he gave at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami and became the highest-paid Latino artist in history.

Within 24 hours of achieving that mark, he repeated the recital and won the title of Latin artist with the highest number of tickets sold in a single performance: 49,749. “World’s Hoster Tour” is the highest-grossing tour in history, grossing $434.9 million.

In the last few hours, Bad Bunny added another record to his list: “Dakiti” surpassed one billion views, a mark that until now only had “Despacito” by Luis Fonsi.

“This 2022 I will never but never but never forget it. ❤️ ”, Benito said on his social networks when sharing an emotional video about what he experienced throughout this year.
