Bad Bunny, Other Latin Artists With Clothing & Shoe Lines You Might Not Know
Diversity is slowly eradicating racism as Latin artists are also dominating the world with their music and entertainment. Famous Latin musicians like Bad Bunny and J Balvin are taking over the scene.
With their goal to promote their music and connect with their fans worldwide, various Latin artists collaborated with different clothing and shoe brands.
The relationship between brands and musicians is a mainstay of pop culture, according to a The Drum report. The partnership between these two different industries offers benefits for both.
Linkages like these give brands a chance to reach a certain market through the artist. On the other hand, musicians will have a revenue stream that is not limited to the record industry's calendar. In short, it is a win-win situation for both industries.
