Cuban reggaeton artist Chocolate MC finds himself in the spotlight once again following the overwhelming success of his track “Wow Pedro.” This song has rocketed to the top spot globally and is one of the most listened-to tracks in both Havana and Miami.
Celebrating his achievement on social media, Chocolate MC didn't hold back his feelings toward Italian entrepreneur and producer Roberto Ferrante, who owns the record label Planet Record representing fellow artist Bebeshito. In a post filled with emotion and controversy, Chocolate expressed:
“We knocked Oniel Bebeshito out of number one with a meme and without spending a dollar like you, old pedophile cop. Call me jealous, go check the charts, and buy towels for the tears because now it's time to cry more than me. (Thank you God, thank you Elvis, thank you uncle, thank you Grandma, thank you Orula, thank you Elegua, thank you Oloffi for never letting me down).”
In another post, the reggaeton star shared a video visibly emotional, shedding tears as he talked about his success:
“Mom, I'm number one in Havana and Miami once again, and with a meme. I cried because, with all the talk about me being finished, that my time was over, I almost gave up. And look at this now, once again proving you can’t listen to anyone, believe in yourself.”

“Wow Pedro,” which cleverly combines humor and social critique with Chocolate MC's distinctive irreverent style, has rapidly surged in popularity, outshining other urban artists. According to Chocolate MC, this success was achieved without the necessity of significant promotional investments, highlighting it as an advantage over his competitors.
