Bad Bunny announces sixth studio album

Bad Bunny has announced his sixth studio album.

The 30-year-old Puerto Rico-born rapper and singer took to Instagram on Thursday (26.12.24) with a short film to confirm the release of ‘Debí Tirar Más Fotos’.

Before the social media post, the star – whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio – dropped a visualiser to the track ‘PIToRRO DE COCO’, which has racked up over a million views and 150,000 likes.

The clip featured film director Jacobo Morales, and it highlighted how Puerto Rico was the best out of all the destinations he had been to.

He said: “I should have lived more, I should have loved more while I could.

“While you’re alive, one should love as much as they can.”

It will debut on January 5, 2025, and it follows the release of ‘Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Manana’ in 2023.

The new album comes as the three-time Grammy award winner teased on the social media platform X on Christmas Day that his new release will feature 17 tracks after he wrote “Bomba” on 17 separate lines.

Earlier in December, ‘El Clúb’ went to number two on the Billboard Hot Latin Song chart, and it will feature on the new album.

Bad Bunny previously credited his success in the US to “hardworking Latinos” who live in the country.

Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar magazine, he explained: “At the end of the day, my success in the United States I owe to the hardworking Latinos who have helped make the country what it is today.”

The chart-topping star admitted that he tried to “pretend” that he was someone else at the start of his career.

The singer – who previously dated model Kendall Jenner – said: “Maybe at the very beginning of my career, I tried to pretend I was someone that I’m not, but I learnt that that’s the way artists lose themselves.

“It’s because they forgot about themselves – them as a person – and invented a fictitious personality.”
