    News media report (more like promote) about them, whether you listen to their stuff or not

    I haven’t heard about “Bad Bunny” in my country, which apparently is worth being downvoted for

      Yeah, that surprised me. My guess is that your comment came off a little “how can this be popular if I haven’t hesrd of it?” Which feels kinda boomery.

      Don’t know what to tell you, he’s been on Canadian news a few times, subject of at least two Economist articles, BBC articles, Guardian articles etc. Maybe you missed the reports? I mean, if you don’t know the name of the guy announced to headline the Super Bowl (by definition, fairly goshdarn famous) it’s not like you’d be expected to be in touch with who is popular etc.
