Bad Bunny Performs First Asia Concert at Star-Studded Spotify’s Billions Club in Tokyo

Bad Bunny made his Asia debut at Spotify’s Billions Club in Japan.

Fresh from his headline performance at Super Bowl LX, the 31-year-old Puerto Rican superstar performed at Tokyo’s Tipstar Dome Chiba for an invite-only show attended by roughly 2,300 of his top Spotify fans in the country on Saturday (March 7).

During his first-ever performance in Asia, Bad Bunny delivered 17 of his biggest hits, including “DtMF,” “BAILE INoLVIDABLE,” “NUEVAYoL” and “EoO.” The artist has a total of 29 songs that have surpassed one billion streams on Spotify.

Adding to the spectacle, the stage was transformed with a Japan-inspired sakura theme, featuring cherry blossom trees, yakisugi wood accents and a glowing sun that illuminated the performance.

The show — Spotify’s first Billions Club Live in the region — also debuted a salsa version of his 2018 hit “MIA,” featuring guest appearances by Puerto Rican musicians Los Pleneros de la Cresta and Los Sobrinos. Other highlights included “Yonaguni,” during which fans sang along to the Japanese lyrics, a salsa rendition of “BAILE INoLVIDABLE,” and a surprise appearance by Jowell & Randy for “Safaera.”

The evening opened and closed with music provided by DJ Nasthug. Celebrities in attendance included BLACKPINK‘s Lisa and contemporary artist Takashi Murakami.

Bad Bunny has been shattering numerous records in recent weeks. Last month, he landed a record-breaking 29 simultaneous titles on the Hot Latin Songs chart, including the entire top 25 — led by “DtMF” for a 47th week — while also bagging the top spot on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.

The Latin star’s Super Bowl halftime show on Feb. 8 also pulled in 128.2 million viewers, marking the fourth-biggest halftime audience in history.
