Alexander Otaola has turned down a request from El Taiger's manager, Marcel Reinosa, for a private discussion regarding details surrounding the reggaeton artist's homicide case—a matter that has deeply affected the Cuban community. During one of his live broadcasts, Otaola mentioned that Marcel reached out for a private chat, but the influencer firmly refused to address the El Taiger case outside the public realm of his program.
"Marcel wanted a conversation with me that nobody else would know about. I don't do private talks; I don't keep secrets. I'm not the IRS," Otaola stated. He stressed that his platform is open to anyone willing to discuss the matter publicly, but only under conditions of full transparency and without any secrecy.
Ongoing Legal and Family Tensions
The conflict unfolds as the legacy of El Taiger, whose real name was José Manuel Carbajal, continues to stir up legal and familial disputes. Marcel Reinosa has been accused of having undue influence over decisions regarding the artist's estate, including the appointment of an executor in the United States, which, according to Jorge Junior—leader of Los 4 and a cousin to the late artist—may serve personal interests.
Otaola's Firm Stance on Public Discourse
Renowned for his candid and controversial approach, Otaola remained steadfast in his position. "There are no secrets here. If you want to talk, come to the table and answer my questions and those of the audience. I'm not here to hear confessions or keep anyone's confidences," he asserted. Furthermore, he reiterated his invitation to all parties embroiled in the controversy, including Teresa Padrón, who has received public backing from figures like Jorge Junior.
"I wasn't friends with El Taiger, nor do I have any connection to his music or anything related to that. Why are they coming to me with a secret? What secret do they want to share with me? If you have a secret, go to church and confess, or tell it to the family," the influencer declared.
Public Interest in the Case
Otaola's refusal to meet privately with Marcel adds to a series of events fueling the debate over the inheritance and legacy of the deceased artist. Meanwhile, the public remains keenly interested in the ongoing exchanges and potential confrontations that could unfold in public forums like Otaola's, who underscores the necessity for transparency in this case.
