I'm old, hate American football and think the Super Bowel is a day when I don't watch TV and go to the beach instead.The era when I knew what was going with rap was Ice T and NWA.I'd never heard of Bad Bunny.Now I have thanks to MAGA. The guy must really be great because they hate him so much.Maybe this year I'll watch the half-time show.
