I'm not going to make a song just to make a song. The day that I make an album, it's so that people really know what Bad Bunny's about.

To me, the most important artists in my career are Arcangel and Balvin. Arcangel gave me the push, the respect in the streets.

I made the track 'Si Tu Novio Te Deja Sola' before I met Balvin.

I never said I was the best in anything. I never said I'm an icon. The world decides all of that.

When you go to an oasis, you go there to supply yourself with the vital things you are missing, things that you need.

We're making the music that the people are asking us for.

My goal in music is to create nostalgic moments.

Being a Puerto Rican artist, I support all kinds of projects that are developed on my beautiful island that in some way or another put our Puerto Rican flag up.

Obviously this song is an achievement for me in my career, but what makes me really feel good is to make Latinos feel proud. To provoke that pride that a pop figure and someone so big in music globally like Drake would sing with me completely in Spanish and create this hit 'MIA.' That's the best part of it.

I've always been surrounded by many great people and professors, but my family, especially my mom who was a teacher, was the person who encouraged me to study and pushed me to continue. When we're young, we don't understand why our parents bug us so much with school and doing homework, but it's a blessing to have that support at home.

You learn a lot in life but there are a lot of tools and resources in school that help you grow professionally and personally for whatever goal you may want to achieve.

Education is important because it prepares you for life.

It doesn't matter if you want to be a teacher, an astronaut, or a reggaeton singer, you need to study.

I have the space and liberty to create.

No one tells me what to do with my music. Real. My mom doesn't tell what to say, how is someone else going to?

Music belongs to the people. To no one else. To no one else.

Music is something no one can control.

Ultimately, I'm not doing that much. I'm only doing what a human being who feels wants to do - in my way, without stepping out of my flow, while staying in my lane. Without, I guess, boring people.

You don't have the same mentality as you did five years ago - even one year. People are always changing, and I believe that everyone deserves the space to change and for people to recognize their change.

When I came into this industry, I was never afraid to be myself.

My style influences my music and everything around me.

The fame isn't important to me. It's a blessing to have. Having so many people that support me, that love me and listen to my music, is beautiful.

What keeps me motivated is love and passion.

The first rap CD that I had, it was so different for me. The energy, the wordplay, all that caught my attention, and I liked it.
