Oniel Bebeshito is experiencing one of the brightest moments of his career and wanted to share it with his followers on Instagram, where he posted an emotional message of gratitude. He reflected on his beginnings, when few believed in him, and celebrated his rise in urban music: “The one everyone said was crazy... look at everything he has accomplished.”
The artist accompanied his words with impressive figures: over 117 million views in Havana and more than 36 million in Miami. Additionally, he ranks among the most listened to with hits like El Punto and Tacto que llegó el reparto. Proudly, he stated that he will continue working to ensure that the distribution is recognized worldwide before the end of 2026.
The post unleashed a tidal wave of reactions, many filled with affection and admiration. Phrases like “The number one in the cast” or “My idol since day one” were repeated among the hundreds of comments. Even those who are not fans of the genre celebrated the achievement of seeing a Cuban succeed on a grand scale.
But not everything was applause. Some users recalled the recent controversy involving the singer, after Roberto Ferrante, owner of his record label Planet Records, stated that Bebeshito was the greatest artist from Cuba, surpassing Celia Cruz. “I think you should change your manager or at least say that you disagree with the outrageous statement that came out of his mouth. Celia Cruz was and is a WORLD star and a legend," wrote a user, calling for respect for the legacy of the Queen of Salsa.
And amidst compliments, figures, and controversies, there was also room for pride: many noticed that Bebeshito's name appears alongside Bad Bunny's on streaming platforms. In Miami, only the Puerto Rican artist surpasses him in view counts. "Wow, it's so great to see your name next to the GOAT Bad Bunny," commented an excited fan. The comparison did not go unnoticed and confirms the increasing presence of the Cuban in the musical landscape of Florida.
The truth is that, beyond the criticism and the passions it stirs, Bebeshito has achieved something significant: putting the cast on the international map, connecting with his people inside and outside the Island, and building a loyal community that continues to grow. As he himself said: “God willing, we will make it global.”
