Now, the reggaeton legend Don Omar, and the Chilean Marcianeke, joined the cause and also came out to defend Chile in the midst of the scandal.
The controversy started on Wednesday, when Puerto Rican producer Alex Gárgolas shared a series of questionable comments on social networks. Now, Marcianeke and Don Omar himself noticed his attitude.
And it is that Gárgolas expressed some sayings about the scope of current Chilean artists of the urban genre, on the eve of the release of the album “Reggaetón Chileno Vol. 1”, which brings together exponents of reggaeton in Chile. But his comments were rather offensive.
It was through Instagram that the producer, while promoting the long-awaited album, commented: “Now the acid test for Chileans is coming. How many are going to stay playing in regions of Chile and those that are going to transcend the world”.
Artists like Pablo Chill-E, Balbi El Chamako and Soulfía responded to his comments by calling them unlucky. and assuring that the urban genre in Chile has managed to achieve its scope “without anyone’s help.”
Now, the reggaeton legend Don Omar, and the Chilean Marcianeke, joined the cause and also came out to defend Chile in the midst of the scandal.
“The expressions of @alexgargolas in reference to #CHILE and its artists are the responsibility of an employee of the genre NOT of the managementa”, asserted the interpreter of She and me, on his official Twitter account. The singer also shared his tweet on Instagram, where he added: “Brother to speak SHIT it takes more than having a MOUTH to do it.”

His comment surprised reggaeton fans in Chile to such an extent that those who had not yet heard of Alex Gárgolas’s words were also grateful.
“I don’t know who Alex Gárgolas is, but if Don Omar came out to stop his cars, it’s because he’s definitely a sacoweas“Were some of the comments.
Marcianeke, for his part, responded to Gargoyles in his latest Instagram post, with a simple but safe comment. “Mano shows more maturity on your part,” she suggested.
