For several days now, social media has been paying close attention to Hallel Génesis, a young Cuban artist who, unbeknownst to her, has completely captivated Tekashi 6ix9ine, who keeps showering her with compliments publicly on Instagram.
But who is this girl, where does she come from, and what has her career in music and social media been like? We discuss this and much more here, as CiberCuba spoke directly with her.
Hallel is originally from Havana and has just turned 20 years old. She has the loveliest memories of her life on the island: "I have no complaints about my life in Cuba; my childhood was wonderful and family-oriented." She arrived in Miami eight years ago with a bright future ahead of her.
Since she was very young, she has always been passionate about music, especially singing, and the world of entertainment: “When I was 16, I wrote my first song and collaborated at that time with Kímiko, Yordy, and Jorge Junior”.
His latest musical release was in April of last year, "Mentiras bonitas," a bachata song that was well received by his followers. Stay until the end, and we'll share the full music video with you.
For 2025, Hallel's expectations are focused on making more music: “This year I will dedicate myself much more to music; I sing all kinds of genres, but I will sing international genres and regarding collaborations, this year, God willing, I will collaborate with several Cuban artists.”
However, alongside her music, this young woman from Havana has been carving out her own path in the world of social media. "I started creating humorous content about five months ago on the topic of how men behave," she told CiberCuba.
Currently, Hallel has over 236 thousand followers on Instagram, and when asked if she plans to become a full-fledged influencer, her response was: “I love creating content, so if that means yes, then it's a yes”. Let's remember that this aspect of her as an influencer is what captured Tekashi's heart and has the networks buzzing.
But there is something in Hallel Génesis's content on social media that really stands out, and that is their phrase, already very popular, “hey, how does the chorus go.”
Curiosity got the best of us, and we asked her where this phrase came from, and the answer surprised us. “One day, I was literally sitting on my bed with a friend, and we were creating one of the videos about how men act, and I came up with the phrase ‘Oe, how does the chorus say’ and it was very well received and went viral and from then on, I became known as the girl who said ‘Oe, how does the chorus say’, she confesses with laughter, acknowledging that this has become her trademark.
Although we asked her if she was surprised by the shower of compliments and declarations that Tekashi 6ix9ine has thrown at her on social media, she only responded with knowing smiles. But we are certain of one thing, Hallel enjoys humor and positive vibes on social media; just look at her dancing to the viral trend "Cocodrilín." How could Tekashi not be in love! Fried like a little potato he is!
And now, as promised, we leave you with the music video “Mentiras bonitas" by Hallel Génesis:
