Dayamí La Musa was one of the pioneers in the Cuban urban genre; however, she is very clear that she would not collaborate musically with any of the Cuban artists who are currently pursuing their careers like hers in Miami.
In an interview for the podcast "Destino Tolk," the Cuban singer spoke about this topic and her role within urban music.
"If you were approached for a collaboration with La Diosa, Seidy La Niña, or Ms. Dayana, which one would you choose and why?" asks one of the hosts of the show.
Dayamí's response was swift: "I think women tend to complicate things; we are more sentimental, and that's why I believe this genre sometimes overwhelms us because there is a lot of mess involved. To be honest, right now I wouldn't engage in any topic with any of the three."
"It’s no secret to anyone that I was the first in this, the one who started this entire genre. I came long before people knew me as an artist, and I understand how it works. I've never sought credit for that; in fact, I don't have credit on the songs that were successful because of me or my work on them, nor did I ever ask for it," the artist added.
"I really feel I am where I belong; I have always been in my place. I don't think I have been respected in that sense, but I haven't needed it. However, I do believe they need to reach out to me, and perhaps a collaboration could be possible," Dayamí expressed.
Nevertheless, the singer mentioned that she has had a good relationship with everyone so far, even Seidy reached out to her at one point to collaborate, but that hasn’t materialized.
Dayamí emphasized that she does not belong to that group of artists who enjoy creating controversy, especially on social media.
