The Cuban singer Musteerifa had an unexpected reaction after reading a comment left by the reggaeton artist Harryson on one of her videos. In the post, where she appears alongside her father, Harryson advised her to move on from the conflicts with her record label and focus on her music: “Let it go, make music, and earn some money.”

Musteerifa did not take it well. She shared a post on Instagram stating that the comment hurt her, especially since it was her father speaking in the video. “Your comment hurt me. I want your public response just like you commented,” she wrote.

But Harryson did not take long to respond, assuring that it was all a misunderstanding. “I think you misunderstood me... What you’re going through, we’ve all experienced. You have the talent to make millions of dollars. I’ve heard your track with El Payaso here in the DR,” he remarked, referring to the song “Las Ganas.”

The artist wanted to make it clear that he never had bad intentions and that he was only trying to encourage her to move forward with her career. “A song does not make an artist. That situation is stealing your time and focus. Make music and let that go,” he added respectfully.

Most comments on social media supported Harryson, asserting that he was one of the few colleagues who took the time to advise her with good intentions. "He gave you the best advice," "Clearer than water," "Everyone understood except you," were some of the reactions.
