Global superstar Bad Bunny released his new video “NUEVAYol” on Friday, July 4th, delivering a powerful political statement. The video celebrates Latin culture in New York and offers a sharp critique of Donald Trump‘s anti-immigrant policies.

One of the most striking moments features a voice resembling Trump echoing through a vintage ’70s radio,stating: “I made a mistake. I want to apologize to the immigrants in America. I’m in the United States. I know America is the whole continent. I want to say that this country is nothing without the immigrants. This country is nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, Cubans…”

beyond its artistic value, the video serves as a Fourth of July statement amidst an aggressive deportation campaign targeting immigrant communities in the United states. Just prior to the release, Congress passed Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” which expands ICE’s power with 10,000 new agents and 100,000 additional detention center beds.

This isn’t the first time Bad Bunny has addressed the treatment of immigrants. In June,he criticized ICE in a video recorded in Carolina, Puerto Rico, showing officers detaining people in the streets. He stated, “Those mother–ers are in these cars, RAV4s. They came here… sons of bi-es, rather of letting the people alone and working.”

Directed by Renell Medrano, the “NUEVAYol” video not only critiques anti-immigrant policies but also celebrates Bad Bunny’s Puerto Rican heritage. A notable scene depicts the Statue of Liberty adorned with a large Puerto Rican flag. The video concludes with a message in Spanish: “Together We Are Stronger.”
