Bad Bunny isn’t done with smashing the history books.

Fresh from his headline performance at Super Bowl LX, Bunny will headline the upcoming edition of Spotify’s Billions Club Live series, to be presented next month in Asia for the first time.

Bunny is booked for a special concert in Tokyo, Japan on March 7, held exclusively for his top listeners in the market.

“Fans in Tokyo can expect a setlist packed with the billion-stream hits that have defined his career,” reads a statement from Spotify.

The one-off date will be the Puerto Rican superstar’s first in Asia, and the streaming giant’s first Billions Club Live in the region. And it’s absolutely not a tour stop, according to the Sweden-based DSP.

The reggaeton giant’s performance is a celebration of his historic run in Spotify’s Billions Club, which has seen 28 of his tracks cross the one billion streams threshold. Spotify users love Bunny; he came in as the No. 1 Global Top Artist in 2025 for an unprecedented fourth time.

Bad Bunny busts records for fun. Following his Super Bowl halftime show on Feb. 9, which pulled in 128.2 million viewers, for the fourth-biggest halftime audience in history, the rapper swept the Billboard charts. This week, he lands a record-breaking 29 simultaneous titles on the Hot Latin Songs chart, including the leader with “DtMF” (for a 47th week), while bagging top spot on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.

Also, he monopolizes the top five spots on the Global 200 and the top three on Global Excl. U.S. charts following his Super Bowl LX halftime show performance Feb. 8 in Santa Clara, CA.

Earlier in the month, on Feb. 1, Bunny ‘s DeBí TiRAR MáS FOToS entered the books when it became the first Spanish-language album, and more broadly, the first album not recorded in English, to win album of the year at the Grammy Awards. On the latest ARIA Albums Chart, Australia’s official tally, DeBí TiRAR MáS FOToS gives Bunny his first top 10 appearance, powering 20-4. That easily eclipses its previous best of No. 16 in 2025.

Bunny’s Billions Club Live performance follows shows from Ed Sheeran in Dublin, Miley Cyrus in Paris, and The Weeknd in Los Angeles.

Bad Bunny starts the week with a massive sweep across Billboard charts. He lands a record-breaking 29 simultaneous titles on the Hot Latin Songs chart (dated Feb. 21), as his track “DtMF” adds a 47th week at No. 1 on the multimetric ranking, while also securing the No. 1 spot on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.

Among his 29 titles on Hot Latin Songs is his 14-minute “Super Bowl LX Halftime Show (Live)” medley, which debuts at No. 31.

Following his halftime performance at the Super Bowl LX on Feb. 8, Bad Bunny’s songs experience a massive surge as fans flock to his catalog. On the Hot Latin Songs chart, he lands 29 concurrent songs, surpassing Peso Pluma’s previous record of 25 titles set in 2023 –when songs from his album Génesis populated the tally. The Hot Latin Songs chart blends streaming data, radio airplay, and digital sales into its formula.

“DtMF” Surges with Big Streaming Gains, Extends Dominance

Starting with “DtMF,” the song adds a 47th week at No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs, inching closer to “Despacito,” which holds the record with 56 weeks atop since its inception in 1986. “DtMF” races at breakneck pace, with a 185% increase in streams during the week ending Feb. 12, generating 43 million official clicks in the United States, according to Luminate. That sends it to No. 1 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100, his second leader there. It also jumps 4-1 on the overall Streaming Songs and adds a 33rd week at the summit on Latin Streaming Songs chart, tying with Jose Feliciano’s “Feliz Navidad” for the third-most weeks at No. 1. They trail Enrique Iglesias’ “Bailando,” featuring Descemer Bueno and Gente de Zona (66 weeks at No. 1) and Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito,” featuring Justin Bieber (59 weeks).

Hot Latin Songs’ Top 10 Takeover & Super Bowl Halftime Debut

In addition to his No. 1 extension through “DtMF,” Benito dominates the entire top 10 on Hot Latin Songs. “BAILE INoLVIDABLE” holds at No. 2 for a 16th week with significant gains in streams. The previous two-week champ registered 28.8 million clicks, up 141%, during the tracking week, rebounding to its No. 2 (from No. 10) on Streaming Songs. Plus, it debuts at No. 18 on the overall Digital Songs Sales list with 4,000 downloads sold.

“NUEVAYoL,” also on Benito’s halftime setlist, is the biggest gainer in sales. It logged 5,000 in digital sales, up 238%, holding at No. 3 on Hot Latin Songs for a ninth nonconsecutive week. That sum yields a No. 9 debut on the overall Digital Song Sales chart and a 2-3 dip on Latin Digital Song Sales.

Among the re-entries, “Tití Me Preguntó” becomes the biggest winner, returning at No. 4 with 22.6 million streams and 10,000 downloads sold.

Plus, “Super Bowl LX Halftime Show (Live)” makes its first appearance, debuting at No. 31 with 3 million U.S. clicks and 2,000 downloads after its first full tracking week.

Here’s a recap of Bad Bunny’s 29 songs on Hot Latin Songs. Among them, 11 re-entries and one debut; he’s the first artist to hold the entire top 25 in a single week, besting his takeover of the top 17 spots (Oct. 28, 2023):

The Rev. Jesse Jackson, who was arguably the foremost Black leader in the U.S. in the years between the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1968 and the emergence of Sen. Barack Obama as a national political figure in 2004, died Tuesday (Feb. 17). He was 84.

Jackson, who had battled the neurodegenerative condition progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) for more than a decade, died at home surrounded by family. His daughter, Santita Jackson, confirmed his death with the Associated Press. Jackson was originally diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 2017 before the PSP diagnosis was confirmed in April.

“Our father was a servant leader — not only to our family, but to the oppressed, the voiceless, and the overlooked around the world,” the Jackson family said in a statement they posted online. “We shared him with the world, and in return, the world became part of our extended family. His unwavering belief in justice, equality, and love uplifted millions, and we ask you to honor his memory by continuing the fight for the values he lived by.”

Motown founder Berry Gordy released a statement hours later in which he said, “I am deeply saddened by the passing of my dear friend, Reverend Jesse Jackson Jr. Jesse was not only a towering leader of the Civil Rights Movement — he was family. He stood with me, with my family, with Motown, and with our community through moments of hope, struggle, and profound change. He stood with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and it was Jesse who brought Dr. King to Hitsville in 1963, just days before the historic Great March to Freedom in Detroit — a moment that forever connected music, movement, and mission.

“In the most difficult and uncertain times, Jesse never failed to remind us of what we were fighting for. His courage, his faith, and his unwavering belief in justice gave strength to countless people, myself included. Even as the road grew harder in recent years, Jesse never surrendered his spirit. He fought with dignity, purpose, and grace. Jesse Jackson was a force of history — a moral voice, a builder of bridges, and a champion for those whose voices were too often ignored. His legacy will live on not only in books and speeches, but in the lives he touched and the progress he helped make possible. My deepest condolences to his beloved wife, Jacqueline, his children, and all who loved him.”

A recording of a Jackson speech won a Grammy in 1989 for best spoken word or non-musical recording. He had been nominated on two previous occasions, in 1980 for best soul gospel performance, contemporary for Push for Excellence, and in 1985 for best spoken word or non-musical recording for Our Time Has Come.

In 1988, Jackson received the President’s Award at the annual NAACP Image Awards. In 2000, President Bill Clinton awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest honor bestowed on civilians.

Jackson was born on Oct. 8, 1941, in Greenville, S.C. In the summer of 1963, at age 21, Jackson traveled to Washington, D.C., where he heard Dr. King deliver his landmark “I Have a Dream” speech. Two years later, he and a group of college friends drove to Alabama to participate in King’s Selma-to-Montgomery march. He met King there. Early the next year, King asked Jackson to head his Southern Christian Leadership Conference’s Operation Breadbasket in Chicago. At 24, Jackson was the youngest of King’s aides.

In April 1968, Jackson joined King in Memphis, where the civil rights leader had agreed to stand in solidarity with striking sanitation workers. The next day, King was assassinated on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel where he and his team were staying in Memphis.

As Jackson’s media prominence grew — including a cover feature in Time magazine in 1970 — so too did tensions between Jackson and SCLC. In late 1971, SCLC’s board suspended Jackson for “administrative impropriety” and “repeated violation of organization discipline.” Jackson resigned and formed his own organization, PUSH – which originally stood for People United to Save Humanity before being amended to the less grandiose People United to Serve Humanity. Like Operation Breadbasket, its goal was to boost minority employment and ownership.

From the moment he began urging and registering Black Americans to vote, Jackson had found his calling – to empower African Americans and anyone else who had felt left behind. They responded to his signature rally chant, “I am somebody.” Jackson used PUSH resources to staff get-out-the-vote drives that helped elect Black mayors in Gary, Indiana; Newark, New Jersey; and Cleveland, Ohio.

Jackson was the first Black candidate for president to attract a broad following and to give rise to credible speculation about his chances. He received about 3.5 million votes in Democratic primaries in 1984 — roughly one in five of those cast. Former VP Walter Mondale won the nomination, and selected New York Congresswoman Geraldine Ferraro, not Jackson, as his running mate.

Four years later, he ran again, this time winning 7 million votes, second only to the eventual nominee, Massachusetts Gov. Michael S. Dukakis. Jackson’s hourlong speech at the 1988 Democratic National Convention brought many delegates to tears. Again, Jackson was passed over for the VP nomination, this time in favor of Texas Sen. Lloyd Bentsen.

Jackson had a complicated relationship with Clinton. In the 1992 campaign, Clinton used Jackson as a foil in what became known as the Sister Souljah moment. Jackson invited a little-known rap singer and activist, Sister Souljah, to a political event featuring the Arkansas governor. In an interview, Souljah had been quoted as saying: “So if you’re a gang member and you would normally be killing somebody, why not kill a white person? Do you think that somebody thinks that white people are better, are above and beyond dying, when they would kill their own kind?”

Clinton, in her presence, took issue with her words. “If you took the words ‘white’ and ‘Black,’ and you reversed them, you might think David Duke was giving that speech,” the candidate said. The moment burnished the image Clinton was trying to build as someone who was willing to stand up to the party’s special interests and most loyal voting base. But the gain for Clinton came at Jackson’s expense. Nonetheless, Jackson had hoped to be selected as Clinton’s VP, but on July 9, Clinton announced Tennessee Sen. Al Gore as his choice instead. Eight years later, in August 2000, President Clinton awarded Jackson the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Jackson’s prominence waned in the 2000s, in part because there were now so many Black leaders in politics, business and entertainment that the idea of one Black leader who spoke for the entire community seemed passe. Jackson was on hand at Grant Park in Chicago when President-elect Obama accepted his victory. Jackson wept, moved that the moment had finally come and saddened, perhaps, that the doors were not nearly so wide open when he ran in 1984 and 1988.

Jackson is survived by his wife, Jacqueline, and six children, Jesse Jr., Yusef, Jonathan, Jacqueline, Santita and Ashley.
