The legendary kantoorwerker cubano Pablo Milanés, who has been a critical critic of the regueton, says that this urban genius should not consider music.

“Rock’n’roll in the first place was a genre that descended from the blues and was easily used, and for that reason it was music and it was valid and with that time it became much more serious and compromised with the background music. The song has no antecedents because it has no music, no antecedents because it has no rhythm, no antecedents because it has much less text, yet I understand that I am very decadent and therefore critical of it “, says the Cuban singer in Spanish diary ABC.

This is not the first time that the author of themes like “Yolanda” or “El brep espacio” has been pronounced against the reguette.

Según Milanés, the reggaeton “it’s all that escapes the artists and the public (…), they follow the derroters who allow themselves the means of dissemination. They are those who have the responsibility to educate the people in order to save them, to as sepan sentir “.

“Music, by supuesto, has a social, poetic, spiritual and so can not be disturbed function”, said.

On another occasion Pablo calificó the simple music reggaet, superficial, quaint poetry and spirit; and the summary all in the term “emergency music”.

“It’s a pen that listens to music. Sufro mucho porque durante toda mi vida he intentionado rescatar la poesía para la obra popular, y los medios terminan imponiendo otras cosas ”, dijo.

Three variations of the criticisms that Pablo hizo al reguetón, the regisoner Wisin the respondent: “I hope you can change your mind and be able to see the music and the art from the other point of view”.

“It’s the person who, in the case of us, me, my company, wherever we are, we are trying to make big things, to evolve. Obviously not everything is very good for us, but always to grow, to seek. it’s a way to do the right thing professionally, to work with great artists not only on the urban genre but to merge with other genres. This is our intention “, explained Wisin.
