The Cuban entertainment scene is ablaze on social media following the confrontation between El Taiger and Ja Rulay during an event in Varadero. The controversy is far from over, as the more senior artist has spoken out on Instagram.
"Did you see me running?" El Taiger asked with a laugh during a live stream, while pointing at his belly to imply that his weight wouldn't allow him to run away from a fight. In a more serious tone, the reggaeton artist demanded that the correct version of events be shared: "Everyone saw that people put their hands on me, held me back, the atmosphere was intense... I had more guts to hold myself back than to let go."
"When something else happens tomorrow, I don't want anyone coming to say, 'José Manuel, you should have prevented it, José Manuel, this shouldn't have escalated.' I'm not God, nor am I the one who determines what's right or wrong," the singer added.
Addressing Ja Rulay, he insinuated that it was the latter who provoked the confrontation: "If you performed yesterday, you had no business being at today's concert."
Videos circulating on social media show the moment when Ja Rulay, along with a group of people, tries to confront El Taiger, who is being held back by others to prevent the dispute from escalating further.
