A spirited debate unfolded between DJ Akademiks and DJ Vlad over Bad Bunny’s upcoming Super Bowl halftime show and whether non-Spanish speakers can truly appreciate his music.

Vlad initially questioned if non-Spanish speakers could fully embrace Bad Bunny’s largely Spanish-language set, comparing it to his previous halftime show with J.Lo and Shakira, where most songs were in English. Akademiks countered by highlighting music’s universal appeal beyond language, citing examples like Punjabi artists and how the voice acts as an additional instrument.
