La Diosa and Osmani García premiered their version of the song "Querida" this Friday, a tribute they made to Juan Gabriel which has received both criticism and praise from the Cuban audience.
In the comments on a post by CiberCuba on its official Facebook profile, the Cuban singer reacted to the criticisms they received for daring to interpret this well-known song by El Divo de Juárez, putting her own stamp on it.
"To those who wish to sue me, Mama requested permission, to my followers thank you for the beautiful comments, we work for you, I love you," wrote The Goddess, making it clear that there will be no issues with copyright.
Opinions have been divided after the premiere. "The good thing is that you can't die twice listening to his tribute"; "Tribute, it will be a satire. How outrageous"; "Mexico should request the extradition of these two. What a lack of respect"; "First-degree murder of such a beautiful song, tremendous lack of respect"; "My God, how horrible Osmani has a better voice than Pepto-Bismol's bottle. Juan Gabriel, please don't listen to this," wrote some of the most reluctant.
However, many others came to the defense of La Diosa and Osmani: "Why the attack? Before, it was about vulgar themes. Now, that they make a song, let's say... 'decent', there are still those who continue with the attacks. When will we learn to support each other"; "The audience liked it and as usual, Cubans are critical, many artists worldwide sing and modify the rhythm of songs that are not their own, like Marc Anthony with Polo Montañez's song and many others. But when it comes to a Cuban artist, they tear them apart. There is no worse wedge than that of the same wood, that's why we don’t progress"; "Communism has twisted the minds of many Cubans, how bad are the envious, starving comments."
The Goddess, who is already accustomed to receiving criticism "whatever she does", has not focused on the negative comments, and continues to enjoy the premiere, which on YouTube already has more than 63 thousand views.
