In a surprising twist, Al Pacino makes a cameo in Bad Bunny's latest music video for "Monaco," a track from his new album "Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana." Set in New York City's Carbone restaurant, the video is a feast for the eyes and ears, blending Hollywood glam with Bad Bunny's unique musical style.
Alongside the "Nadie Sabe Lo Que Va a Pasar Mañana" album Bad Bunny released a music video on "Monaco" on Oct. 13. and fans were in for a treat. Not only does the video feature the Puerto Rican artist in full Hollywood glam, but it also includes a cameo by none other than Al Pacino. Yes, you read that right—Al Pacino, the legend himself, sharing screen time with Bad Bunny.
The video is set in the ultra-exclusive Italian restaurant Carbone in New York City, a fitting backdrop for a meeting between two icons from different worlds. Pacino is seen enjoying an Italian meal, shaking hands with the chef, and even sharing some off-the-cuff conversation with Bad Bunny. At one point, Pacino assures him, "You're doing great. Enjoy it!" It's a moment that adds a layer of authenticity to the video, making it feel like we're eavesdropping on a real conversation between friends.
The song "Monaco" itself is a blend of genres, a mix that keeps you guessing. It follows the opening track "Nadie Sabe," and feels like a natural progression in the narrative that Bad Bunny is building in his new album. It's a song that, like the video, defies easy categorization.
But the surprises don't stop with Pacino. The video also features a cameo by race car driver Sergio Pérez, adding another layer of star power to an already stacked lineup. And if that's not enough, Bad Bunny is set to both host and perform on "Saturday Night Live" on October 21, just days after the video's release.
As the video comes to a close, Pacino and Bad Bunny raise a toast to each other, wine glasses in hand. It's a fitting end to a video that feels like a celebration, not just of Bad Bunny's music, but of the joy that comes from unexpected collaborations. Pacino ends the video by asking Bad Bunny, "You going to the club?" It's a question that leaves us wondering what's next for both of these icons—and eagerly awaiting the answer.
So, if you haven't seen the "Monaco" video yet, do yourself a favor and check it out. It's a feast for the eyes and ears, and a reminder that when it comes to Bad Bunny, you should always expect the unexpected.
