Background

Bad Bunny wrote "Amorfoda" a long time before his rise to fame. In an interview for Billboard, he said: "I've always loved this song because I wrote it with a lot of sentiment behind it. It's the kind of record that reminds me of the longevity of really good songs. A good song never gets old. It was just a matter of time, and it was time to come out with something different."[3] The track's title arose when the singer was searching for a term in Portuguese to send love to the devil.[4]
