The recording, shared by @un_martitodurako8_live_oficial on Instagram, shows the Cuban influencer inside a closet while Rachel Arderi's voice can be heard in the message she posted after her car accident in Miami. In that original video, the wife of reggaeton artist Oniel Bebeshito announced that she would be keeping her private life out of social media and would stop showcasing her luxuries. Kenny recreated her words using his voice and exaggerated gestures, which many interpreted as mocking, while others deemed it a stroke of comedic genius.

"Thanks for uploading it, I didn't have time to see it earlier," someone commented, while another noted, "Kenny took it down, but there you are for those of us who couldn't catch it."
Beyond the laughter, the video divided opinions again regarding the limits of humor. Some considered it a lack of sensitivity, while others defended Kenny wholeheartedly. “I don't see any disrespect in it at all. Snowflake generation,” commented a follower. Another was more straightforward: “If you don't want content made about your life, don't post it.”
Expressions of support for the influencer quickly multiplied, reinforcing his popularity: “Kenny, we love you,” “You are the best,” “That video has nothing wrong with it, it just makes us laugh.”
