Bad Bunny Appropriately Enlists Booker T For His Combative ‘Booker T’ Video

I mean, you can’t call the song ‘Booker T’ and not put the wrestler himself in the video right? …

Bad Bunny had by far one of the most productive 2020 years in comparison to his peers in the music world. The Puerto Rico-born singer kicked off his 2020 with his Yo Hago Lo Que Me Da La Gana album, which was the highest-charting Spanish album ever at the time of its release and Spotify’s most globally-streamed album of 2020. He also shared two additional projects last year with Las Que No Iban a Salir and El Último Tour Del Mundo. The latter project, which he released at the end of November, became the first all-Spanish-language album to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard album charts. Now, Bad Bunny continues its promotion with a new video for “Booker T” with none other than Booker T himself.

The video brings the two names together as they post up inside a storage unit of a trailer as they’re driven … somewhere. Booker T stands authoritatively in the middle of the unit as Bad Bunny bounces around it and poses beside the wrestler who appears to be his bodyguard for the visual. Booker T previously spoke about the collaboration on his Hall Of Fame podcast.

“From somewhere across the water, he’s watching Booker T and he’s digging what I’m doing, it lets me know I did something right as far as going out there from a performance perspective,” he said. “I always wondered when somebody was going to come out with a song about Booker T, because I knew I was badass, but this is kind of the stamp of approval.”

Booker T is not the first celebrity Bad Bunny has enlisted in a video for an El Último Tour Del Mundo track. He previously called on Snoop Dogg for his “Hoy Cobré” video.

Yella Beezy Shuts Down Speculation After Photo With G$ Lil Ronnie’s Murder Suspect Surfaces

HonkMagazine

Dallas rapper Yella Beezy is speaking out after a photo of him with one of the suspects linked to the murder of Fort Worth artist G$ Lil Ronnie and his young daughter began making the rounds online. On Wednesday, Beezy posted on Instagram to clarify that he had no idea who the person was when the photo was taken. He pointed out that taking pictures with fans and strangers is just part of his life as a musician. “Don’t associate my name with any of that nonsense,” Beezy wrote in his Instagram Story. “I take tons of pictures every day with people I don’t know; it’s part of my job. It’s ridiculous to use a photo of me in a situation like this. Don’t mess with my image, especially when it involves kids. Straight up. Rest in peace to Chuckie and his little girl.”

Beezy’s response came after some social media users suggested he might have a connection to the tragic incident where G$ Lil Ronnie and his daughter lost their lives in a shocking act of violence. Speculation grew after the photo emerged showing Beezy alongside one of the accused. However, the rapper quickly set the record straight, denying any false claims and expressing his strong stance against violence, especially towards innocent children. His fans and friends in the music industry quickly supported Beezy, acknowledging how difficult it can be for public figures to interact with fans.

In today’s social media world, where people often jump to conclusions based on limited information, Beezy’s message serves as a reminder that just because an artist appears in a photo with someone does not mean they are connected in any way. As the tragic news of G$ Lil Ronnie’s death continues to affect the Texas rap community, Yella Beezy’s words highlight an important point that being photographed with someone doesn’t imply guilt or involvement. While investigations into this heartbreaking case continue, Beezy is dedicated to protecting his reputation and ensuring his name isn’t wrongly involved in untrue rumors.
