"Before I say thanks to God, I'm gonna say ICE out! he said, getting an immediate and raucous reaction from the Grammys crowd, who jumped to their feet, cheering and applauding for about 30 seconds before he continued. We're not savage, we're not animals, we are not aliens, we are humans, and we are Americans, he said, apparently speaking about his fellow Puerto Ricans."
"Also, I want to say to the people, I know it's it's tough to no not to hate these days, and I was thinking sometime we get contaminados I don't know how to say that in English. [Translation: contaminated] The hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love, he continued, getting cheers from the crowd again."
Bad Bunny won the Grammy for Best Musica Urbana Album for Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, one of six nominations for the album. He opened his acceptance by shouting 'ICE out!' and received a prolonged standing ovation and loud cheers, with the audience jumping to their feet and applauding for about 30 seconds. He affirmed that Puerto Ricans are humans and Americans, rejecting dehumanizing labels such as 'savage' or 'alien.' He warned that hate spreads and contaminates, and urged responding to conflict with love rather than hatred. He referenced a Super Bowl-related NFL contract that prevented a Grammys performance and closed by thanking God and the Academy.
