The announcement of Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show sparked a wave of backlash from ICE threats to pundits questioning whether he’s even “American.” The Puerto Rican artist will perform at the NFL’s Super Bowl LX halftime show in California on February 8th, 2026.
In this episode of The Last Mixed Tape, Stephen White explores how Bad Bunny and Chappell Roan have become symbols in a new cultural resistance one where language, identity, and freedom of expression collide with a politics of fear.
Featuring deep commentary, visual storytelling, and cultural analysis on the power of pop art in America today.
The Last Mixed Tape is hosted by Stephen White, and is also available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.
