— Benito Antonio (@sanbenito) December 25, 2024 Debí Tirar Más Fotos is the musical culmination of what appears to have been a very busy 2024 for Ocasio. Over the past year, in addition to completing the new record, he’s punched up the burgeoning acting career with roles in auteur filmmaker Darren Aronofsky’s forthcoming crime drama feature film, Caught Stealing, and in the much-anticipated Adam Sandler sports comedy sequel Happy Gilmore 2. Before being cast in these divergent dramatic and comedy roles, Ocasio appeared as an assassin in Bullet Train opposite Brad Pitt and Cassandro, starring Gael García Bernal, among other roles.
As if writing and recording his music while acting in films from top talent isn’t enough, Ocasio also performs as a professional wrestler. His WWE programming debut came in 2021 and that same year he made his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 37.
Bad Bunny has sold over seven million records worldwide and is the first non-English-language act to become Spotify’s most streamed artist of the year, and Un Verano Sin Ti is the most streamed album on Spotify with over 18 billion streams.
