The song was made by Lin-Manuel Miranda in order to raise funds to help Puerto Rico. The island was devastated in September 2017 by hurricane Maria, leaving the entire island without power and in shortage of food and medicine. Miranda’s family is from the island and has been working since the hurricane struck to help out the people in Puerto Rico. The song lists all the towns in Puerto Rico.

Of course, this isn’t the first time Lin has talked about hurricanes in his work. A song from his smash-musical Hamilton is called “Hurricane”, which he sings in the cast recording as Alexander Hamilton.
