\"Un Verano Sin Ti\" was 2022 's year-end No.1 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart. It spent 13 non-consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard 200 record chart after its release, which was the most weeks at No. 1 since 2016. The album also became the first Spanish-language LP to be nominated for album of the year.
The evening was not without controversy. During Bad Bunny's opening performance -- and later, during his award acceptance speech -- viewers watching the show at home pointed out that the closed captioning read simply, \"SINGING IN NON-ENGLISH\" or \"SPEAKING IN NON-ENGLISH,\" rather than offering a direct translation. Network officials at CBS later added Spanish language closed captioning for the show's West Coast rebroadcast and to Paramount+, where viewers could access on-demand replays, according to Deadline.
ABC News has reached out to CBS for comment on the closed captioning issues.
Still, Latinos all over the globe felt a tremendous level of pride as a result of Bad Bunny's infusion of Latin culture into Sunday nights ceremony.
\"LITERAL GOOSEBUMPS. Our sound, our culture, merengue performers OPENING the #GRAMMYs,\" Remezcla Editor-in-Chief Thatiana Roman tweeted as the show got underway, adding several Dominican Republic flag emojis. \"To have some of the biggest names in music dancing merengue? When ppl ask why Bad Bunny is so loved? This is why. Him taking these moments to REPRESENT.\"
Bad Bunny was unapologetically himself on Sunday evening, proudly Puerto Rican and Latino, and of course, a global phenomenon who continues to make history and break records.
Most importantly, he was all of those things on one of the biggest stages in the world.
