Bad Bunny made waves at the 2026 Grammy Awards with an impactful acceptance speech that took aim at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). As he claimed the award for Best Música Urbana Album for his album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, he boldly declared, “Before I say thanks to God, I’m gonna say ICE out.” His call for love and humanity resonated deeply, challenging listeners to rise above hate in a world that often feels divisive.
Continuing his passionate message, Bad Bunny urged his audience to combat hate with love, asserting that the strength of love is greater than that of hate. This was not just another acceptance speech; it was a heartfelt manifesto that inspired many. He also won Best Global Music Performance for his song “EoO”, adding further accolades to his already impressive career. With his just a week away from performing in the Super Bowl halftime show, Bad Bunny is clearly not shying away from making bold statements in front of large audiences.
His words are especially poignant given the anticipated presence of ICE at the upcoming Super Bowl, which has stirred backlash. Politicians have already started to weigh in, and it seems like Bad Bunny’s message may spark further discussion about the intersections of music, politics, and the current social climate. Will his call to love resonate beyond the Grammy stage? That remains to be seen, but one thing’s for sure—his voice is definitely being heard!
