The song, which is the outro track of his latest album, I had to throw more photostells the story of Benito, a man who grew up in Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, as the eldest of six siblings and worked hard from a young age, driving trucks like his father and grandfather, despite his dream of becoming an engineer.

The video begins by showing a nostalgic collection of old photos of his ancestors. Soon after, the visual depicts the birth of baby Benito. Halfway through, a the infant appears in a car seat, singing along to the song against a robust salsa rhythm. “Calle Sol, Calle Luna, I’m on the dark night/ I don’t sing reggae, but I’m culture,” the baby spits, referencing Puerto Rican reggae band Cultura Profética.

The video transitions to a scene where the present-day Bad Bunny is seen running through a field, proudly waving the Puerto Rican flag, before arriving at a local community gathering. “They love me like Tito and I am serious as Cotto/ Lugia, Ho-Oh, bastard, today I am legendary,” he raps, drawing parallels between himself and revered Puerto Rican boxers Tito Trinidad and Miguel Cotto, while also invoking Lugia and Ho-Oh from the Pokémon series.

Benito toldBillboarda few weeks after releasing the album, “This project isn’t mine. It belongs to many people: everyone who worked with me, it belongs to Puerto Rico, my friends, my family. This project belongs to all of us who feel proud of being from Puerto Rico and being Latin.”
