The Cuban reggaeton artist Oniel Bebeshito proudly celebrated his participation in the halftime show of the match between Venezuela and Argentina, which took place at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.
His performance was met with enthusiasm from his fans, who highlighted his international reach and his contribution to the genre.
“I am happy, happy for myself and happy for the people who do not envy the success of others, I love them”, the artist wrote on Instagram, in response to the negative comments circulating on social media following his performance.
Although he received a wave of praise from the Cuban audience, Bebeshito was also the target of criticism, particularly from users in other Latin American countries, who questioned his style and level of recognition outside the island community.
Among the comments circulating on social media, one read: “The first time I’ve heard that guy Bebeshito mentioned, I wasn't even aware of his existence”; “You couldn’t understand a thing he was singing”; “Nobody knows him except you guys, it’s that simple, let him go do a concert like that in the Dominican Republic or Chile or Argentina and see how it turns out for him.”
Some even did not hesitate to make derogatory comparisons: “Oh, I thought it was Bad Bunny or one of those who all sing the same”; “If he were Venezuelan, they would deport him”; “No, that’s not music and he’s not a singer”.
Despite the mockery, many Cuban users defended the artist, considering him one of the most representative figures of the roster on the island. For many, his presence at such a major sporting event symbolizes another step in the internationalization of his career and the Cuban urban genre.
Bebeshito closed his message on social media with a phrase that has also been interpreted as a direct response to his critics: “May what you wish for me be multiplied for you.”
"We continue to raise the flag high. Distribution, infinite thanks to all my fans; without you, none of this would be possible. Every time I see the support you give me, I focus twice as hard," was the message of gratitude to his fans.
