Otaola tells El Chacal that it was he who saved him from Boris Arencibia: "I came to save you."

El Chacal spoke about his artistic independence after leaving Boris Arencibia's representation company. Alexander Otaola claims credit for his success and alludes to his role in Arencibia's arrest, who is now imprisoned by the FBI.


In a recent interview with Yuliet Cruz, El Chacal discussed the issues he faced with the company that previously represented him, led by Boris Arencibia. He successfully overcame those challenges to become an independent artist.

However, there is someone who is claiming credit for the rise that El Chacal has experienced in his artistic career and also in the businesses he started when music was not an option, and that person is Alexander Otaola.

In one of his programs, the Cuban communicator reacted to the reggaeton artist's interview: “I like this new Chacal, the only thing I don’t like is that he is an artist signed by Manuel Milanés, but this focused Chacal, it's as if he adapted, as if he suddenly opened his eyes and discovered that he is in a land of opportunities.”

“So, he became a capitalist; oh, but he looks so good, even sexy, this capitalist Chacal, this businessman Chacal, relaxed,” Otaola added.

When it comes to Otaola, the moment was not to be missed when he claimed all the success of the artist with laughter: “As he says, I learned, thanks to the fact that I had Boris (Arencibia) arrested. El Chacal says ‘he was resigned’ because of how they were finishing him off, but I came to save you, when is this people going to give me the credit.”

“He is unable to recognize that thanks to me sending Boris away for a long time, for the next 40 years to the Federal, this man has been free again, how difficult it is to get credit for one’s actions,” Otaola emphasized, publicly stating that he had something to do with the arrest of Boris Arencibia.

The Cuban promoter and entrepreneur was arrested last year by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and is currently in federal prison facing a possible sentence of 40 years for involvement in a multi-million dollar scheme involving the trafficking of stolen medications and money laundering.
