The news of El Taiger's death has left not only the Cuban reggaeton world in mourning but also artists, loved ones, and fans around the globe.
After several days in critical condition at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, the reggaeton artist passed away this Thursday, October 10, leaving his followers and colleagues in shock. Tributes and expressions of sorrow from Cuban artists continue to grow, including words from rapper Aldo El Aldeano, who despite the differences he had with El Taiger, has bid farewell with a message full of respect and sorrow.
In an Instagram story, Aldo posted an image of the reggaeton artist accompanied by heartfelt words: "What a tragedy, man!! After so many wars, today I light a candle from my village to help you find your way. May you be with your parents and God. Safe travels," wrote the rapper, making it clear that, despite past differences, respect for humanity was above any grievances.
This message comes just days after Aldo spoke out during the battle of El Taiger for his life. El Aldeano had put behind the months of public confrontations, including a strong diss track filled with insults and mockery, to send a message of support: "I'm very sorry for what happened to you, man, I hope you recover. Strength to you, your children, your family, your friends, and your followers," he said at that time.
Aldo's farewell adds to many others from other Cuban artists, who also have not been able to contain the pain of losing El Taiger.
The artist's followers and friends have continued to pay tribute to him by visiting the Jackson Memorial in Miami, where he was hospitalized after the gunshot that caused his death. On social media, the tributes, anecdotes, reminders, expressions of sorrow, and condolences for his family, especially his daughters and grandmother, have not ceased. The legacy of El Taiger will be marked in the history of Cuban reguetón, and his departure has left a difficult-to-fill void.
