MOSCOW, 10 Nov. Rapper Bad Bunny (Benito Antonio Martínez Ocpsio) has been named Top Artist of the Year at the 4th annual Apple Music Awards. This was reported on the company's website.
In May, the artist released his sixth album Un Verano Sin Ti, which became the leader in streaming on the platform. It was also recognized as the most popular Latin American release of all time.
"When I started, I didn't have a big fan base. I am grateful for all that I have achieved and for all that I have experienced. The popularity of Latin American music has skyrocketed.
