Chris Brown is not a fan of Big Bunny’s Super Bowl LX halftime performance.

“I think it’s safe to say… they need me,” Brown wrote on his Instagram Stories, followed by a winking face emoji.

The post came minutes after Bad Bunny gave an electric performance during the prestigious halftime show, which celebrated his native Puerto Rico.

The rapper, who performed entirely in Spanish, thrilled the crowd with songs like “Monaco,” “Yo Perreo Sola,” and “Tití Me Preguntó,” while celebrities including Cardi B, Pedro Pascal, Alix Earle, Jessica Alba and Karol G danced around him.

The performance honored many aspects of Puerto Rican culture, like the food, games and dancing.

Lady Gaga delivered a surprise rendition of her and Bruno Mars’ ballad, “Die With a Smile,” and Puerto Rican-born Ricky Martin sang “Lo Que Pasó a Hawaii.”

Fellow Puerto Rican Ricky Martin also surprised the crowd, as he sang “Lo Que Pasó a Hawaii.”
