Bad Bunny is Dominican and of Puerto Rican descent

Bunny, who is now 28, was born on March 10, 1994 under the sign of Pisces in Almirante Sur, Puerto Rico. He is Dominican because his father is from the national capital, Santo Domingo.

He is also of American and Puerto Rican nationality and claims Puerto Rican ethnicity. The singer weighs 75 kg and is 5’6″ tall.

Moreover, he started writing and producing his interpretations at the age of 14 until 2013. The following year in 2013 he released Get through SoundCloud, followed by Tentacion in 2014 and Just let me know in 2015.

When the rapper was a bagger at Supermercados Econo in Vega Baja in 2016, he released his music as a solo artist on SoundCloud. In a similar vein, DJ Luian was drawn to his song and signed him to his record company, Hear this Music.

When DJ Luian introduced Bad Bunny to the Mambo Kingz production team, they were captivated by his musical innovation and looks.

Rapper Bad Bunny was born to his parents, Tito Martínez and Lysaurie Ocasio

In the Puerto Rican community of Vega Baja, Bad was born and raised by his parents, Lysaurie Ocasio and Tito Martinez.

In addition, his mother Lysaurie was a teacher and his father Tito was a truck driver. While Bad Bunny helped Ocasio clean up, she listened to songs like “Abrazame muy Fuerte” by Juan Gabriel, merengue, and salsa.

He proclaimed that he had a great upbringing and did not grow up hanging out on the streets but preferred to spend time with his family at home.

His mother was a devout Catholic who sang in the church choir, so he went to church with her.

Similar to how his father wanted him to be a baseball player, his mother Lysauire wanted him to be an engineer, and a teacher predicted he would become a firefighter.

Also, after leaving the choir and doing his first solo performance in a college talent contest in the Juanes song “Mala Gente”, he developed an interest in musicians he heard on the radio, especially Daddy Yankee and Hector Lavoe.

Bad Bunny grew up with his two brothers Bysael Martínez Ocasio and Bernie Martínez Ocasio

Along with his two brothers Bysael and Bernie Martnez Ocasio, Bunny grew up in a secure, lower-middle-class family of devout Catholics. Bysael is 20 years old, while his brother Bernie is 25.

Bernie travels frequently with el Conejo Malo. He even makes a brief appearance in Bad Bunny’s latest music video for Yo Visto As, where he collaborated with Ricky Martin, a Puerto Rican pop artist, and Sofa Vergara, a Colombian actress.

The three brothers get along well. After graduating from high school at the Beltrán Baseball Academy, Bysael, Bunny’s younger brother, pursues a career in baseball.
