After weeks of unconfirmed teasers and rumours, Bad Bunny has announced the arrival of his fifth solo studio album and the follow-up to his record-breaking ‘Un Verano Sin Ti’. The newly announced ‘Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana’ (‘Nobody Knows What Will Happen Tomorrow’) will be released next Friday 13th October.
These details were confirmed in a luxurious video teaser that the Puerto Rican hitmaker posted on Instagram. In the visual, a masked Bad Bunny walks past a crowd of paparazzi and enters a busy restaurant with characters who stare at him as he makes his way through the dining area. A worker greets him, and then the camera pans to reveal the singer’s new buzzcut hairstyle – reminiscent of his style as a trap rapper in 2018.
Bad Bunny’s most recent musical release was his feature on Drake’s “For All the Dogs”, and his solo single “Un Preview”, which appears as part of the song’s 22-song tracklist. “Un Preview” was announced on Bad Bunny’s WhatsApp channel (a new feature on the platform where he has over 12 million followers). At the time, he said it might be his last solo single of the year.
In his most recent in-depth interview, Vanity Fair writer Michelle Ruiz alluded to Bad Bunny’s new album coming this autumn, although this has never been confirmed by the artist or his team. He revealed that he is “playing around and having fun, letting go” when it comes to creating the follow-up to ‘Un Verano Sin Ti’.
“I take a lot of inspiration from the music of the ’70s – in all genres, both Spanish and English – but I’m not sure if it’s going to shape my music in general or just one song,” he said.
Bad Bunny also recently appeared at the Billboard Latin Music Awards to accept numerous awards, including Artist of the Year (for the third year in a row), and to perform a live medley of hits and new singles. Dressed in overalls and a giant diamond-encrusted cowboy boot chain, Bad Bunny ran through “Moscow Mule,” “Titi Me Pregunto,” “Neverita,” “Me Porto Bonito,” “Where She Goes” and his latest, “Un Preview.
