The Cuban reggaeton artist Chocolate MC opened up during a live video call on the show hosted by Alexander Otaola, where he candidly spoke about his emotional state and the challenges he faces both personally and in his artistic career.
“Behind this laughter, I am crying,” the singer confessed, visibly affected. “Now I understand a little more about El Taiger and other artists who have felt that emotional void. It's not that I'm feeling down,” he clarified, while sharing a difficult phase he is going through with his audience.
During the conversation, Chocolate reminisced nostalgically about the days when he had a more stable family life: “When I left the quiet life of being with my daughter, changing diapers and giving her milk, and started the life of having many women, from that point on, the more women I had, the lonelier I felt.”
The artist also launched a harsh criticism of the music industry: “I can tell my fans that the music industry is pure hell. Once you enter the industry, you are already set apart,” he expressed.
In the midst of his outpouring, the reggaeton artist lamented not having followed his mother's advice: “If I had listened to my mom…”, and he emphasized that he lives under constant pressure. “I’ve been in danger for a long time. When I have an enemy, it motivates me even more,” he said.
Despite his words of distress, Chocolate also expressed his gratitude to those who have been supporting him during this difficult time. "I truly have to thank my comadre Laura and Osmani, as well as my new work team who are giving me strength, but it's not easy to have all these problems," he concluded, unable to hold back his tears.
Chocolate MC's words have generated a wave of reactions among his followers, who have expressed concern for his well-being and sent messages of support on social media.
