Best response I've heard about MAGA whining about Bad Bunny not singing in English [View all]

I caught a clip of someone laying it out very clearly. The award winning album was done entirely in Spanish.

Why would anyone demand that he do it in English? Would you have made the same demands of Andrea Bocelli or Pavarotti? Should they translate their artistic works to suit crying entitled MAGATs?
It is so absurd.
