Ivonne, de Sin Mordazas, me dirigió a un artículo donde se detalla el disgusto del rapero boricua-cubano Fat Joe ante el apoyo que Daddy Yankee le dio a John McCain. Cito del mismo:
"I opened the newspaper and got sick to my stomach," Joe continued. "I felt like I wanted to vomit when I seen that. The reason why I called him a sellout is because I feel he did that for a [publicity] look, rather than the issues that are affecting his people that look up to him. How could you want John McCain in office when George Bush and the Republicans already have half a million people losing their homes in foreclosure? We're fighting an unjust war. It's the Latinos and black kids up in the frontlines, fighting that war. ... We over here trying to take the troops out of Iraq and bring peace. This guy immediately wants war. If not with Iraq or Afghanistan, he'll start a new one with Iran. I feel real disgusted that Daddy Yankee would do that. Either he did that for a look, or he's just not educated on politics."Joe said he's more than willing to educate Yankee on each of the politicians' platforms."If he believes John McCain is the better candidate for the Latinos," Joe said, "we could sit down. Even if he wants to get into a debate, we can debate anywhere — New York, Puerto Rico."
Y eso, que ahora que la noticia está internacionalizándose veremos más artistas criticando al Cangri. Y muchos de ellos sufrirán náuseas vomitivas, como Fat Joe, y le dirán "vendido" ("sellout").
Y con mucha razón.
El regueton y sus exponentes, seguidores realmente no trascienden excepto en sectores marginados que de ninguna manera ostentan poder,
ResponderBorrarriquezas o algo que decir que no sea: sexo, avaricia por dinero, oro, autos, y sexo. Por tanto a que tomar seriamente lo que balbucean?

¿Cómo está Edwin, el sabio diletante, y este aguerrido colectivo?
ResponderBorrarEstoy muy en desacuerdo con "sin machete". Ya el reguetón trascendió los sectores marginados hace tiempo. La mayor prueba de que los toman en serio es que el conservador y millonario McCain utilizó a Daddy Yankee para atraer al público joven o hispano.
ResponderBorrarLo triste es que el DY queda como ignorante o peor, vendido, por haberse prestado para eso.
