aimed at Cosculluela. The track was widely criticized due to its foul language and offensive remarks about homosexuality and HIV patients.
Two years later, amid the George Floyd protests around the world, the urban artist expressed through Instagram Live that
Afro-Puerto Ricans are not descendants of Africa. This is contrary to the basic teachings of the Puerto Rican education system that educate on the history and colonization process of Puerto Rico which included the African slave trade that lasted almost 350 years, and the vast and evident African influence on Puerto Rican culture (along with European Spanish and indigenous Taíno influences). Although he did not clarify where he believed the Afro-Puerto Ricans are originally from, in his insulting expressions of June 7, 2020, he also called for Puerto Ricans to not join in on protests, calling the demonstrations a "crap that affects the economy". Later that day, the urban artist issued an apology.
