Listening to "Una Velita," released tonight by Bad Bunny to commemorate the seventh anniversary of Hurricane María's passage through Puerto Rico, is an emotional journey that connects deeply with those who experienced the tragedy. The song evokes the lingering anguish felt by Puerto Ricans, who are reminded of the catastrophe each time the rain falls.
With the help of his producers, Tainy and La Paciencia, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, the artist's full name, touches upon the shared national trauma.
