Oniel Bebeshito had a concert scheduled for August 24 at La Tropical, but he took to his social media to denounce its cancellation. The Cuban reggaeton artist explained that he was censored for a month and afterward was not allowed to perform in venues with large audiences.
"A decision was made that I believe was poorly taken. I was censored for a month, unable to sing from July 15 to August 15. I had to accept and comply with my censorship. After completing my month, I was only allowed to perform in small venues because they said I attracted too many people," the singer detailed in an Instagram post that he later deleted.
"After a month and a week, I was given the opportunity to sing at La Tropical, a venue for the people, especially those who can't afford to go to a bar. The money from La Tropical was going to be donated to children with syndromes. Three days before the concert, I was informed that it was canceled without any explanation, leaving me to face the public once again," added Bebeshito, clearly frustrated by the situation.
The artist used his post to apologize to his fans: "I want to apologize a thousand times to all my people who were expecting that concert, but these things are out of my hands. It seems my happiness bothers many people. Now I have to wait and see when I'll be allowed to perform for the public again."
While Bebeshito did not clarify why he was censored, it is noteworthy that last July, shortly before the period he mentioned, there was a controversial incident at one of his concerts in Camagüey. During the event, a fan was forcibly removed from the stage.
