Galician rapper Erin Castro (Comando Katana), better known on social media as @eltrapicista, has once again caught the attention of his followers with one of his videos documenting his stay in Cuba, where he was filming a music video.
On this occasion, he shared his visit to a gym in Old Havana and showed what it's like to train in that place. In the video, Erin invited his followers to join him while he trained at the gym, whose equipment is known for being locally made, or as the Cubans call them, "criollos."
The video of his visit to the gym in Cuba has generated a large number of reactions, and while some users viewed the situation with a sense of humor, others were more critical: "I feel such secondhand embarrassment for these characters who promote the misery of Cubans"; "I don't know what this person gains from this video, mocking the situation in Cuba or what?"; "How sad to see people using the Internet to give publicity and be part of the propaganda of a country sunk in absolute misery; put in the video how much a Cuban earns, not just how much a pizza or coffee costs"; "This is communism and the left is misery"; "I don’t know what you’re doing in a gym in Cuba, weren’t there other activities?"; "Cuba is a dictatorship and you promote a communist dictatorship."
There were those who also reacted to the conditions of the gym: "That gym is from the Stone Age, oh my God, what a disgrace"; "Not even when Arnold Schwarzenegger started training were the machines this old"; "Machines from World War I"; "The machines are older than cars"; "Those machines aren't even the ones from Guantánamo."
The Compostela rapper, who recorded the music video for "Todo va bien" in Cuba, has been very active documenting his stay on the island. A previous video where he showed what he had eaten and paid for at a restaurant in the capital also sparked a flood of criticism and debates, similar to what happened with his visit to the gym.
