The Cuban reggaeton artist Jacob Forever delivered a powerful message against communism and in favor of the freedom of Cuba during his concert last weekend in Louisville, Kentucky. In the midst of his performance, the artist paused to address the audience and share his stance on the Cuban reality.
"There are people who are exaggerating, there are two or three crazy ones who are inflating", he began by saying, apparently referencing the recent controversy over inflated numbers on digital platforms. "In life, one must have principles, values, ethics, and a clear moral definition, and one must be clear about what you want, because when a man makes a decision, I know it causes suffering. Not being able to go to your homeland, not being able to see your family, but one must have values and have a clear understanding of reality", the singer stated.
Jacob Forever, known for his hit "Hasta que se seque el malecón," made his stance against the communist system in Cuba clear and encouraged the Cuban community in exile to remain steadfast in their fight for freedom. "Down with communism, freedom for Cuba! Here we are in a free country, where we seek money, and if you want to see your family, call Risa Travel and take your family to Punta Cana like I do," he added.
The interpreter concluded his speech with a message of hope, expressing his desire to one day sing on a free Malecón in Havana. "And when Cuba is free, this will be sung on the Malecón. Where are the Cubans who want freedom? What's up?" he asked the audience, who responded with cheers and slogans in favor of the island's freedom.
A hint for Bebeshito?
Jacob Forever's statements sparked a torrent of reactions on social media, where several followers interpreted his words as a message directed at fellow Cuban reggaeton artist Bebeshito.
Some of the comments that reinforce this theory include: "Tough Jacob, strong against El Bebesito. Jacob is always very tough and only got back up when Alexander let him, and look how he managed it on his own. Jacob is very strong."; "That was direct and clear for El Bebesito."; "The punch was direct for El Bebesito." or "Clear as day, come on Chevecito, Micha, Lenier and a couple more who disrespect the exile."
