About this Event

Join CENTRO and El Museo del Barrio for the exciting book launch of P FKN R: How Bad Bunny Became the Global Voice of Puerto Rican Resistance! Through a series of original interviews that include artists like De La Ghetto, iLe, Jowell & Randy, Tainy, MAG, and others, this book traces Bad Bunny's career from his early days on SoundCloud to the release of DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS in January 2025. This book, authored by professors Vanessa Díaz and Petra Rivera Rideau and published through Duke University Press, utilizes Bad Bunny’s body of work and subsequent explosion as a global superstar to provide a deeper analysis of the past thirty years in Puerto Rican politics and history. 


Join authors Díaz and Rivera-Rideau (creators of the “Bad Bunny Syllabus” as they explore Bad Bunny’s place in a long tradition of infusing both joy and protest into music and honor the many evolving forms of daily resistance to oppression and colonialism that are part of Puerto Rican life.
