The data, after the judicial arrest warrant was issued, indicates that the authorities imposed a bail of at least $2,500 on the Cuban reggaeton singer to be released.

El Taiger could be at home relaxed at this time, but at some point, he will have to appear before the Court.

The artist has gained notoriety in the international music scene with several hits in the reggaeton genre. The most recent one is "Marca Mandarina" where he collaborates with another musician from the island. This could be the song of the summer and it has already surpassed 11 million views on YouTube.

Despite his success in music, El Taiger faces a challenging legal situation in the United States as he was arrested in April for similar reasons: Possession of substances and alcohol.

The arrest this Friday has caused a great stir among his followers on social media, where many express concern for the artist's situation.

In his Instagram stories, El Tiger left a strange message to his fans this morning. It is a video showing a rooster calmly walking on the mouth of a crocodile, implying that he is not afraid of danger.
