The popular Cuban reggaeton artist Ja Rulay surprised his followers on social media by sending a strong message to the National Revolutionary Police (PNR), urging the authorities to take drastic measures against drug trafficking in Cuba.
He specifically referred to a dangerous synthetic drug known as "the chemical" that is circulating on the island and even affects teenagers.
During a recent interview, Rulay expressed his deep concern about the proliferation of this drug among young Cubans.
"I don't care what they say, that I'm a snitch or whatever, but I send this message to the police: Stop everyone who is selling chemicals and everyone who is selling drugs. How does that happen? It needs to be stopped because people are going crazy. Children are losing their sense of reality. Everything is wrong. I don't care what they say on social media," the artist declared.
The reggaeton artist, known for his direct and unfiltered style, emphasized that he has gone through difficult situations related to substance use, but believes it is necessary to take action against those who sell drugs in Cuba.
"I have been through those situations too, but I believe that anyone who sells drugs or something like that should face retaliation," he added.
This call comes in an alarming context, where in recent days several videos have gone viral on social media showing young Cubans allegedly under the effects of “the chemical,” a substance whose components are not exactly known, but it causes hallucinations, rigidity, and convulsions.
Ja Rulay gained fame in Cuba by forming a reggaeton duo with Fixty Ordara. The group split up, and each of them is pursuing solo careers.
"The dad of the puppies," with his recent statements, reaffirms his commitment as an "influential figure in Cuban culture," something he has been insisting on since the summer of 2023.
