A Personal Celebration
On the occasion of his 31st birthday, Bad Bunny unveiled the music video for “La Mudanza.” The track encapsulates his profound love for Puerto Rico and reflects the significance of his family heritage.
Video Narrative
The video begins with Bad Bunny narrating his family’s lineage, accompanied by vintage photographs of his ancestors. This visual storytelling transitions to the moment of his birth, where his fictional parents, portrayed by family members including his brother Bernie as the father, journey through a vibrant sunrise with a newborn Bad Bunny.
In a striking scene, the camera focuses on the infant artist, who amusingly delivers the opening lines of “La Mudanza” while seated in a car seat, even gesturing with his tiny middle finger. The lyrics reference significant Puerto Rican musical icons, including Willie Colón and the reggae band Cultura Profética.
Modern Day Connections
The narrative transitions to present-day Bad Bunny, who is depicted running through a field while proudly displaying the Puerto Rican flag. He passionately declares, “Tell them this is my home where my grandpa was born,” affirming his identity with pride as he raps, “Yo soy de P fucking R.”
Album Significance
“La Mudanza” is part of Bad Bunny’s album, *Debí Tirar Más Fotos*, which has earned a place at the top of the Billboard 200 chart. This release follows earlier singles such as “Turista” and “Baile Inolvidable,” further demonstrating his focus on celebrating Puerto Rican culture throughout the album.
Reflecting on the album’s themes, Bad Bunny remarked, “It has a lot of meaning in terms of wishing I had seized certain moments. That’s the idea: enjoying the moment when I could and valuing memories.”
