Bad Bunny Addresses Immigration in His Song

Buenos Aires, February 2 (NA) – The phrase “ojalá que los míos nunca se muden” from Bad Bunny’s song “DtMF” is part of a passage focused on repentance, emotional closeness, and the value of everyday bonds. According to the Argentine News Agency, the track belongs to the album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” and features a narrative voice that acknowledges what was left unsaid or undone with loved ones: more photos, more hugs, more presence. In this context, the line about wishing that “my people” never move serves as a direct expression of a sense of roots and permanence. The singer asks for continuity of his inner circle in the face of the possibility of distance due to immigration to other countries. This thematic axis dialogues with the words the artist uttered when accepting his Grammy Award, where he opened his speech with a reference to the migration situation. There, the artist said: “Before thanking God, I’m going to say: ‘Down with ICE’,” in reference to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. He then added: “We are not savages, we are not animals, we are not foreigners; we are humans” and maintained that hate is not fought with more hate, but with love. At the same ceremony, his intervention was framed by criticism of the hardline policies toward migrants promoted by Donald Trump. The connection between the lyric and the public speech is built on a common defense of bonds and close people.

In the lyrics, the plea is for family and their surroundings not to have to leave, as, at the Grammy stage, the musician expressed an explicit stance on migration and humanity.
