Last Sunday, a brawl broke out during a concert by Oniel Bebeshito, and after videos of the incident circulated on social media, many criticized the reggaeton artist for not stopping the music and continuing to sing as if nothing was happening.
Influencer Un Martí To Durako shared the video on his Instagram profiles, and in the comments section, several people questioned the singer's attitude. In the footage, Bebeshito is seen performing on stage at a nightclub with his group. Suddenly, a commotion among the security staff caused the person recording the performance to focus the camera on the area right in front of the stage where the fight had begun.
Although it is clear that Bebeshito noticed what was happening because he looked in that direction, he let the security personnel handle the dispute and continued with his performance.
Public Outcry and Criticism
"A major mistake by Bebeshito, especially with the song he was singing at that moment. The first thing he should have done was stop the music and, as an artist, try to talk to at least attempt to calm the situation," one commenter said. "I didn't see the professionalism they claim to have. Why didn't he stop the concert at that moment?" another questioned. "The level of backwardness in this country is huge," someone else added. "At that moment, the person with the most influence over the audience is the artist himself. I'm not saying he could stop the problem just by speaking, but it's ethical for the artist to intervene since he is the main figure at the venue at that moment, especially when the song being played incites violence," another remarked. "People don't know how to share, but Bebeshito should stop the band so that people become aware," another person commented.
"This time, since the stage was so small, no one could be thrown off," an internet user wrote, recalling that a few weeks ago, Bebeshito was involved in a major controversy when a security guard violently threw a fan from the stage after she had jumped up to hug the artist.
