It's Bad Bunny's moment to shine.
The Puerto Rican superstar won Album of the Year at the 2026 Grammy Awards for 'DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS,' making history as the first Spanish-language artist to claim the top prize in this category.
After Harry Styles announced his name, Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, was visibly emotional as he walked to the stage. He began his speech by honouring Puerto Rico, highlighting the island's pride and resilience.
Bad Bunny's Speech
He expressed gratitude for everyone who supported him throughout his career, including the people who worked on the album and his family, especially his mother. He dedicated the award to everyone who had to leave their homeland to pursue their dreams, and he also acknowledged those who have faced loss but continued moving forward with strength.

Before finishing, Bad Bunny thanked Latinos around the world and the artists who paved the way for him.
The win came amid tough competition, with nominees including Justin Bieber, Sabrina Carpenter, Lady Gaga, Kendrick Lamar, Leon Thomas, Tyler, the Creator, and Clipse. It wasn't his only Grammy of the night—he also took home Best Música Urbana Album for 'DTMF' and Best Global Music Performance for "EoO."
Released in January 2025, 'DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS,' which translates to 'I Should Have Taken More Pictures,' reflects on living in the moment and appreciating loved ones. Bad Bunny previously shared that the album was inspired by a desire to embrace life and cherish meaningful experiences.
