The Cuban reggaeton artist Chocolate MC did not remain silent in response to the recent comments made by Sandro Castro, grandson of the late Fidel Castro, and he responded emphatically from prison during a phone call with the YouTuber Yoslier Santiago.
During the conversation, Chocolate harshly criticized Sandro and accused him of being part of a supposed “project” of the Cuban regime to distract the people.
“El Estado cubano occasionally creates a couple of influencers; once it created Yarelis and another time, the same Chicleee. The State itself creates them and people do not realize that these influencers are a project of State Security to keep the population entertained with other matters so that they do not focus on protests,” said the reggaeton artist.
According to Chocolate, Sandro is no exception to this pattern and labeled him as a “speculator” who was put in charge of “making a fool of himself” to distract the Cubans.
It seems that Sandro's grandfather pointed a finger at him, because he is always speculating on social media. They told him, 'Pipo, do something for the homeland, at least start making silly antics on social media' so that people can laugh at you and be entertained by you. Here, anyone not gossiping belongs to the CDR.'
When the YouTuber asked what Fidel Castro would think if he saw his grandson's current posts, Chocolate did not hesitate to respond.
The Fifo takes everything from him and gives him a machete. If the Fifo catches him, he gives him a machete and says 'come here, buddy', and in the first patch of weeds he sees, he makes him chop for a while. Those hands must be soft, baby hands. That kid never does anything, that kid was born rich, he's a shameless one, inherited from his grandfather. They are the source of shamelessness and have indoctrinated shamelessness in the country, that's why Cubans are so shameless.
These statements come after Sandro Castro made ironic comments on social media about Chocolate MC, referring to him as “brainless Chocolatín” and “Nestlé Chocolate,” and warning that he would not reveal details of his relationship with the singer because “the networks are on fire.”
