The last time Bad Bunny released an album on a Sunday was four years ago when he dropped Las Que No Iban a Salir on Mother’s Day 2020. This time around, just in time for Día de Reyes (Three Kings Day), he’s gifting fans a brand new LP.
On Sunday (Jan. 5) — a rather unconventional day to release an album — the Puerto Rican superstar delivered Debí Tirar Más Fotos, which loosely translates to I should’ve taken more photos. The 17-track set is the hitmaker’s sixth studio album, following his 2023 project, Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana, which earned him his third leader on the Billboard 200.
Like a lot of things Bad Bunny does, Debí Tirar Más Fotos is an ode to Puerto Rico and the sounds that have soundtracked the island for generations. Throughout, he seamlessly blends plena and salsa with genres like house and, of course, reggaetón (surprisingly, no trap). The set — with producers such as Tainy, MAG, La Paciencia, Big Jay and Saox in tow — includes collaborations with artists Chuwi, Dei V, Omar Courtz, Pleneros de la Cresta and RaiNao.
On Dec. 26, 2024, Bad Bunny (born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) announced he was releasing a new album via a teaser video on social media that featured Puerto Rican film director Jacobo Morales, who reminisced about treasured moments with his friend “Concho.” A press release further elaborated that Bad Bunny “once believed it was essential to live in the moment, but as he grows older, it has become harder to remember certain things. Now, he wishes he had taken more photos and lived more deeply.”
Ahead of dropping the new album, Bad Bunny released “EL CLúB,” which combines house music with plena-styled guitar. The single debuted at No. 2 on the Hot Latin Songs chart. He also dropped the ultra nostalgic “Pitorro de Coco” — named after a holiday rum beverage — powered by a pure jíraba rhythm, a traditional Afro-Caribbean genre. The two songs served as a preview of Bad Bunny’s tropical-leaning LP.
