Bad Bunny has been sued by a woman who claims her voice is sampled on two of his hit songs, without permission. The lawsuit, filed in Puerto Rico, alleges that Tainaly Serrano Rivera can be heard speaking on the track EoO from his latest No. 1 set, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, as well as on Solo de Mi, a 2018 song off Bad Bunny's debut album, X 100pre. The sample in question supposedly features Rivera saying in Spanish, "Mira, puñeta, no me quiten el perreo," which translates roughly to, "Listen, damn it, don't take away my vibe.” Rivera says she recorded this phrase at the request of Bad Bunny's producing partner, La Paciencia, when they were in college together back in 2018. ”At the time of the request, the purpose of the audio was not explained, nor was the plaintiff informed that her identity would be used and commercially exploited. No compensation of any kind was discussed. No contract or agreement was signed, nor was any license or authorisation granted.” Rivera is now suing for violations of Puerto Rico's right of publicity statute and seeking $16 million in damages from Bad Bunny (real name Benito Martínez Ocasio), La Paciencia (Roberto Rosado), and the star's record label, Rimas Entertainment. Rivera is represented by the same legal team that sued Bad Bunny back in 2023 for allegedly featuring the voice of his ex-girlfriend on the tracks Pa' Ti and Dos Mil 16 without her consent. Settlement details in that case were not made public.
