Introduction to Bad Bunny’s Tour Decision
Bad Bunny, a three-time Grammy award winner, has been making headlines with his decision not to include any stops in the USA on his Debí Tirar Más Photos World Tour. This decision has sparked curiosity among fans and critics alike, with many wondering what could be the reason behind it.
Concerns About Latinos in the US
In a recent profile with ID magazine, Bad Bunny opened up about his decision, citing concerns about the mass deportations of Latinos in the United States. When asked if this was a factor, he replied, "Man, honest, yes." This statement has shed light on the potential reasons behind his decision to skip US tour dates.
Past Experiences and Concerns
Bad Bunny has performed in the US many times before, with successful shows and a loyal fan base. However, he expressed concerns about the presence of ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) officers outside his concerts. He mentioned that this was a problem that he and his team were very concerned about, and it played a role in his decision not to tour in the US.
Speaking Out Against ICE
The superstar has been vocal about his opposition to ICE and their practices. In a previous Instagram post, he was seen criticizing ICE officers for their arrests in Puerto Rico. Although the post has since been deleted, it showcased his strong stance on the issue.
A Growing Trend Among Artists
Bad Bunny is not the only artist to express concerns about touring in the US under the current administration. Other international artists have also spoken out about their worries, citing uncertainty about artist visas and the changing political climate. The Chicago Latin Music Festival Michelada was even canceled in May due to these concerns.
Neil Young’s Similar Concerns
Canadian-American artist Neil Young has also expressed similar concerns about touring in the US. In a letter on his website, he wrote about his worries regarding his ability to return to the US after speaking out against President Donald Trump and his administration. Young’s concerns highlight the growing trend of artists feeling uncertain about their ability to perform in the US without facing repercussions.
The Debí Tirar Más Photos World Tour
Despite the controversy surrounding his US tour dates, Bad Bunny’s Debí Tirar Más Photos World Tour is set to kick off on November 21st in the Dominican Republic. The tour will make stops in various countries around the world, concluding in Belgium in July. Fans can still catch Bad Bunny live in concert, even if it’s not in the US.
