“The impact [of being part of Up Next] can be seen in everything, in numbers, in plays, in shows.”
Bad Bunny
Bad Bunny said: “The impact [of being part of Up Next] can be seen in everything, in numbers, in plays, in shows.
“There are a lot of fans that, when I go out in the street in the US, people who do not speak Spanish, I think they will not know me and they stop me, they ask me for pictures and they sing my songs.
“It helped me very much to make myself known in a market different from mine, not only the USA, but in places where Spanish is not spoken or where perhaps Latin music does not dominate, exposing my music and giving people the opportunity to get to know what I do.”Music Business Worldwide
