Bad Bunny makes history as Billboard’s Top Artist of the Year

Billboard released its 2022 Year-End Chart with history-making Bad Bunny topping it.

The first Latin artiste who primarily records in Spanish to become the year’s top artist, 2022 was Bad Bunny’s year as he made No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Artists chart and his hit summer album, Un Verano Sin Ti, made No. 1 on the Billboard 200 Year-End Chart.

It made history by being the first entirely Spanish-language album to top the charts as the best-performing album of the year and the first Latin artist to top the charts who mostly records in Spanish.

Taylor Swift and Drake also topped the Billboard Year-End Charts for five consecutive years since 2018.
