Single follows his Latin Grammy win for “Perro Negro” from Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana
Bad Bunny is starting the holiday season with a far-too-relatable feeling of yearning. On Thursday, the Puerto Rican superstar released the video for “El Clúb,” on which he overthinks about an ex-partner. In it, he also teases a possible new project in the new year.
The Stillz-directed video opens with Bad Bunny in a fur coat entering a packed club, before the visual glitches to show his reality: the singer in bed asking himself “What might my ex be doing?” and “Is she over me?” while scrolling on his phone. The video then switches to a splicing of morphing, almost-psychedelic clips, including newborns being stamped with the word “middle class” on their forehead and Bad Bunny making out with himself.
The video then fast-forwards to Benito walking away from a house on fire with a box of belongings before hiking through a field of greens and finding a spot to bury the memories under a full moon. He then places a Puerto Rican flag on the spot. The video ends with Bad Bunny heading to the 15th floor of a building and the letters “DTmF” and “2025” displaying on the screen, which led fans to automatically speculate that it might be the initials of his upcoming album.
“El Clúb” was produced by MAG and La Paciencia alongside Spanish producer Saox.
Earlier this week, Bad Bunny seemed to tease the new song in an Instagram carousel that saw dominos and a güiro — a Puerto Rican instrument — hanging from a Christmas tree. Playing over the video seemed to be a snippet of the song as he sang, “Dos de la mañana en el club, todo el mundo pasándola cabrón.” (“Two AM in the club, everyone having fun” in English.)
“El Clúb” marks Bad Bunny’s second single release since Nadie Sabe Lo Que va Pasar Mañana, which earned him a Grammy nod in the Best Música Urban Album category at the 2025 Grammys. The LP’s song “Perro Negro” with Feid also won for Best Reggaeton Performance at the Latin Grammys last month.
Earlier this year, Bad Bunny dropped single “Una Velita,” inspired by the devastation of Hurricane Maria, along with collaborations with Myke Towers on “Adivino” and Rauw Alejandro’s Cosa Nuestra‘s “Qué Pasaría.”
