Bad Bunny just reached a new milestone — and this one hits differently.
Following his electrifying 2026 Super Bowl performance, the Puerto Rican superstar has officially earned his first solo No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with “DtMF.” The track tops this week’s chart, marking his second overall No. 1, but notably his first without collaborators.
His previous chart-topper, “I Like It,” reached No. 1 in July 2018 alongside Cardi B and J Balvin. This time, it’s just him — and the emotion that’s fueled a global connection.
“DtMF,” short for DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS (“I should have taken more photos”), serves as the emotional centerpiece of his Grammy-winning Album of the Year project. Over the past year, the song has evolved beyond a track — it became a movement.
In 2025, “DtMF” sparked an emotional TikTok trend, with fans creating deeply personal photo compilations honoring loved ones. The lyrics, reflective and vulnerable, resonated widely. Translated to English, Bad Bunny sings: “I should’ve taken more pictures when I had you / I should’ve given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could.”
The trend grew so powerful that Bad Bunny himself was seen tearfully reacting to fan tributes.
What makes this No. 1 different isn’t just chart positioning. It’s context. “DtMF” reflects on absence, memory, and cultural roots. It references San Juan sunsets, domino games with Grandpa, Santurce nights, and the music traditions of reggaeton, salsa, bomba, and plena.
It’s deeply Puerto Rican. It’s deeply personal.
And at the Super Bowl, when he closed his set with the song, it landed not as spectacle — but as a moment.
With multiple songs from his performance now occupying Top 10 spots on the Hot 100, Bad Bunny continues to demonstrate something industry analysts have long noted: his cultural fluency translates globally without dilution.
Read the English translation of “DtMF” below:
[Intro]
Eh, eh, eh, eh
[Verse 1]
Another beautiful sunset I see in San Juan
Enjoying everything that the departed are missing out on
Enjoying nights like those that don’t come often
That don’t come often
But wanting to go back to the last time
That I looked into your eyes
And to tell you the things I didn’t get to tell you (You look like my crush, haha)
And to take the pictures I didn’t get to take
(D*mn, I swear you look so pretty, let me take a picture of you)
Ayy, my chest feels empty, I got hit hard
My heart is pounding
Tell me, baby, where are you?
I can meet you there with RoRo, Julito, Krystal
Roy, Edgar, Seba, Óscar, Darnell, and Big Jay, playing bata
Today, we’ll leave the streets in chaos
And it’d be amazing if you play the güiro for me
I see your name and it makes me sigh
I don’t know if it’s fireworks or gunshots
My whitey, my cocaine, my kilo
I’m in PR chilling, but
[Chorus]
I should’ve taken more pictures when I had you
I should’ve given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
Ayy, I hope my people never move away
And if I get drunk today, I hope they help me out
I should’ve taken more pictures when I had you
I should’ve given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
I hope my people never move away
And if I get drunk today, I hope they help me out
[Verse 2]
Hey, today I’ll be with Grandpa all day, playing dominoes
If he asks if I still think about you, I’ll say no
That my time being close to you is over now
It’s over now
Ayy, fire up the machines, I’m going to Santurce
Here, they still drink rum
Check out the girls, damn, mami, how sweet
Today I want to drink, drink, drink
And talk nonsense until I get kicked out
I’m so drunk (I’m so drunk), I’m so drunk (I’m so drunk)
Man, you drive, because even if I’m walking I’m about to crash
I’m so drunk (I’m so drunk), I’m so drunk (I’m so drunk)
Let’s enjoy it because you never know how much time we’ve got left
I should’ve taken more—
[Interlude]
Guys, I love you so much, I really do
Thank you for being here, truly
It’s very important to me that you’re here
Each one of you means so much to me
So, let’s take the picture, come here
Everyone, get in, the whole crew, let’s go
Let’s do it
[Verse 3]
Now Bernie has a baby, and Jan has a girl
We’re no longer about the flashy stuff and chains
We’re here for the things that are truly worth it
Hey, for reggaeton, salsa, bomba, and plena
Check out how mine sounds
[Outro]
I should’ve taken more pictures when I had you
I should’ve given you more kisses and hugs whenever I could
I hope my people never move away
And that you send me more nudes
And if I get drunk today, may Beno help me
