<3 feels like a voice note straight from Bad Bunny’s heart: a vibrant shout-out to everyone who placed their bets on him back when he was just a dreamer uploading tracks from his bedroom. Over a reggaeton pulse, he runs through a gratitude list that stretches from Puerto Rico to the Dominican Republic, name-drops the Super Bowl, Triple H, the NBA and LeBron, and reminds us (with playful swagger) that passion, not luck, turned him into a global icon.
Beneath the hype, the track is a confessional about staying authentic while juggling superstardom. Bad Bunny celebrates being diferente, but also admits that constant fame keeps him up at night. The chorus of thanks to family, friends and fans is his anchor: the same kid who once got sent to bed early for misbehaving now does “whatever he wants” on the world’s biggest stages. Gratitude, self-belief and realness power the song, turning its title into a giant digital heart for everyone who helped him get here.
