James said that he had a great time at the Puerto Rican rapper’s concert. He also gave his seal of approval on Bad Bunny performing at Super Bowl LX.
“It (the concert) was unbelievable,” James said. “I had an unbelievable time. It was actually the opening weekened, you know, the time I was there and, you know, Puerto Rico is like a great place for me.
“They always welcomed me and my friends. They’re my family. There so much respect that I have for the island and everybody down there. I’m super happy for Bad Bunny that he’s able to represent the Super Bowl in San Francisco. That’s gonna be super dope. And, hopefully I can be there man and support him. He’s a great friend of mine.

Not everyone is happy with the Puerto Rican rapper performing at the Super Bowl halftime show, though. POTUS Donald Trump’s advisor Corey Lewandowski expressed his displeasure with the situation and said that ICE will be present at the event looking for illegal immigrants.
“There is nowhere you can provide a safe haven to people who are in this country illegally. Not the Super Bowl, nowhere else. We will find you. We will apprehend you. We will put you in a detention facility and we will deport you.”
