The concert by Oniel Bebeshito that took place on December 28 at the Pitbull Stadium continues to be a topic of considerable controversy, especially within the Cuban community in Miami.
A Cuban woman took to social media to lash out at the reggaeton artist and everyone who attended his concert, stating that Donald Trump should expel them all from the United States.
"You know what Donald Trump needs to do? Put them all on a plane. You went to Bebeshito, come on, you are I220A, seriously, without any explanation, just put them on a plane, you know where to send them, not to Cuba because they’ll be comfortable there; I’ll leave them stranded in Tapachula and I’ll bring Bebeshito along too. Bebeshito, you’re the pilot of the plane, and you’re taking the whole May 1st tribe you formed there at the Pitbull stadium, whatever it’s called," she said in a video, visibly upset.
"Everyone is going to Tapachula with me, so I won’t say that I’m leaving them even further behind, making them pay coyotes again, making them jump, because you don’t deserve to be here. There are Cubans who do deserve it, there are Cubans under I220A who do deserve it. I apologize if I'm grouping everyone together," he added, amid his anger.
The video sparked mixed opinions, with some criticizing Oniel Bebeshito for his alleged ties to the dictatorship, while others supported the singer and questioned how Cubans turn against their fellow countrymen.
“Nothing has been proven yet, but if he is with Canel, it's a real mess. With Canel, the suffering of the people is respected. If it turns out that he is just another communist, then that will mark the end of his career—remember today's date"; “Stop pretending you can’t go”; “Please don’t give any more visibility to people like this”; “Bring in the hairdresser, the one who did your eyebrows, the one who won’t fix your teeth. And while you're at it, take them to the neighborhood you came from, with those people meddling in things that don’t concern them at all, no one asked you for money"; “Cubans are doomed not to progress. We talk about other nationalities, but we don’t see ours which is bent on destroying its own people. Communism has finished you off. The United States is where we are; they've distorted freedom of expression to such an extent that it's just pathetic. Educate yourselves and then speak up; you look ridiculous,” they commented.
One of those who reacted to the video was influencer Kenny Robert, a big fan of Bebeshito, who took the opportunity in his response to mock this person while defending the artist.
