Watch Bad Bunny do his laundry while rapping about picking up a woman in Brickell

Bad Bunny wants us all to go to Puerto Rico.

The reggaetonero, who played a subway busker in one hilarious clip on the “Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Monday night, also performed “Voy a Llevarte Pa PR” during the late night talkfest. Translated to “I’m Going to Take You to Puerto Rico,” the song is about wanting to whisk a woman he met in the Magic City back home to his island.

The performance sees Bad Bunny (real name Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio) in what appears to be a basement doing laundry, dressed casually in a furry hat, sweats and sandals.

“I met her in Miami, in Brickell. She knows here there’s money.... I’m going to take you to PR, mami,” he raps in Spanish to a cheering studio audience. “Here nobody’s getting married...Take advantage, I’m single.”

Bunny continues the track while filling up his drink and dancing around the washing machine.

The cheeky hit is off the 30-year-old Grammy nominee’s sixth studio album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” (I Should Have Taken More Photos). Along with the new album, he just announced a summer residency that kicks off July 11 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, at the so called Choli arena.

The 21-date residency is called No Me Quiero Ir De Aquí, which means “I Don’t Want to Leave Here.” All of the July concerts are for residents of the island only but outsiders can get tickets for the August shows. Sounds like Benito is pretty busy, so don’t expect to see Kendall Jenner’s ex picking up women around Brickell — where he owns upscale steakhouse Gekko — anytime soon.
