Bad Bunny’s Record-Breaking Global Livestream and Puerto Rico Partnership: A Historic Finale and New Beginnings

Puerto Rican superstar Bad Bunny delivered a landmark moment in music and community support with the finale of his “No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí” residency on September 20, 2025. The nearly four-hour show not only shattered Amazon Music’s record for solo artist viewership but also united fans worldwide with a live global stream across Amazon Music, Prime Video, and Twitch. This historic concert, held on the eighth anniversary of Hurricane Maria, combined incredible performances with a meaningful launch of a multi-year initiative to benefit Puerto Rico’s development.


Record-Breaking Global Livestream Experience

Bad Bunny’s residency finale, titled “Una Más” (One More), became the most-watched single-artist concert in Amazon Music’s history, with over 340,000 viewers tuning in on Twitch alone. This unprecedented global livestream was the first time Bad Bunny shared a Puerto Rican performance live with an international audience, breaking platform records and expanding his worldwide influence. While total viewership across all platforms remains undisclosed, the impact of connecting millions globally was evident in the massive online engagement.


A Star-Studded Emotional Finale

The concert’s highlight was a powerful duet with legendary Puerto Rican singer Marc Anthony, who joined Bad Bunny for “Preciosa,” a beloved 1937 anthem by Rafael Hernández Marín. This rare performance marked the first time in over 20 years that Anthony sang the song live, accompanied by roaring applause from the audience. The finale also showcased a lineup of renowned Puerto Rican artists including Ñengo Flow, Jowell & Randy, Dei V, Arcángel, De La Ghetto, and RaiNao, adding depth and cultural significance to the event.


Honoring the Past, Inspiring the Future

The timing of the finale was poignant, coinciding with the eighth anniversary of Hurricane Maria’s devastation of Puerto Rico. From a rooftop set resembling an iconic Puerto Rican house, Bad Bunny raised a glass to honor those affected, while Ñengo Flow’s jersey emblazoned with the number 4,645 paid tribute to the hurricane's lives lost. This blend of celebration and remembrance created a deeply emotional connection for all attendees and viewers.


Amazon and Good Bunny Foundation Partnership

Beyond the music, the event marked the launch of a comprehensive collaboration between Amazon and Bad Bunny’s Good Bunny Foundation to foster Puerto Rico’s development in education, technology, agriculture, and economic growth. Key initiatives include enhanced STEM curricula in schools, expanded technology access for students and teachers, agricultural support for Puerto Rican farmers, and a dedicated “comPRa Local” storefront on Amazon.com, promoting products made in Puerto Rico with visible “Hecho en PR” badges.

Rocío Guerrero, Amazon Music’s Director of Music Latin-Iberia, emphasized the power of this partnership: “By combining music, Amazon technologies, commerce, and community programs at scale, we’re engaging global audiences to this historic moment while strengthening Puerto Rican communities.”


Economic Impact and Future Tours

Bad Bunny’s residency, which began in July 2025, attracted approximately half a million attendees over 31 shows and generated an impressive $733 million for Puerto Rico’s economy. This success reinforces the huge cultural and economic influence of the artist. Looking ahead, Bad Bunny is set to embark on his “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” world tour, starting November 21 in Santo Domingo and featuring over 50 shows across four continents through July 2026.


Conclusion

Bad Bunny’s residency finale was more than a concert—it was a historic cultural event that united a global audience, paid tribute to Puerto Rico’s resilience, and launched vital community development initiatives. Through a powerful combination of music, collaboration, and commitment, Bad Bunny and Amazon are helping shape a brighter, stronger future for Puerto Rico while setting new standards for live global entertainment.

This milestone event will be remembered not only for breaking streaming records but also for inspiring hope and progress across the island and beyond. Bad Bunny’s influence continues to transcend music, cementing his role as a transformative figure in both entertainment and social impact.
