The controversy that began last year between Rene Perez and J Balvin has taken a new turn, now with the intervention of the Panamanian composer Ruben Blades.
Blades improvised in rhythm of rap his position on the dump among urban artists, and took advantage of the moment to advise resident. “That conflict of others forces me to comment… I advise René, because I love him as a brother”, began his lyric.
“When sometimes the anger at my reason twists, I say to myself ‘Rubencito, eagle does not hunt fly‘. Well, ‘love and affection’ is not ‘love and control’, letting the child scream is sometimes better”, suggests the Puerto Rican singer who became known for the group 13TH Street.
He continued: “There is an old truth that only the good learn, gold never buys those whose soul does not sell”.
Blades’ reaction is the last straw in the urban artists’ lawsuit, which has been criticized by other artists, such as Alejandro Sanz and Ricardo Montaner. The discord comes from 2021, when J Balvin urged urban artists to boycott the Latin Grammysbecause, in his opinion, supposedly the representation of that genre in the contest had been very low.

René responded with a video, noting that indeed multiple representatives of that rhythm received nominations in various categories. In fact, the song of the year was Homeland and lifea ‘protest rap’ by well-known figures in the field: Yotuel, Gente de Zona, Decemer Bueno, Maykel Osorbo and El Funky. René also criticized the nature of the boycottbecause he put into play the tribute prepared for Blades in that award.
Finally, René compared his music to a “hot dog cart”.
At freshest chapter of this fightRené used a musical session of the BZRP Music Sessions #49a project of DJ Bizarrapto make strong remarks to the Colombian singer, for more than 8 minutes.

Among the strongest phrases dedicated to the interpreter of What else then and My peoplethey find each other: “What do you expect from this failure, raised by his dad, a influencer frustrated?”. “You are more false than a hot dog no ketchup or bread.” “He is an imbecile, with hair dye, that he put on black women with dog chains around their necks”.
Blades concluded in his video clip, available on YouTube, that “don’t pay attention to those things”. Better “calm down listening to the album of the year Salswing! in Puerto Rico on May 14”, alluding to his production recorded with the Roberto Delgado orchestra, which coincidentally was the album of the year at the 2021 Latin Grammys.
