Urban music singer Cosculluela asked for forgiveness after he made some expressions on social networks that created controversy last weekend.
Through Instagram Live, the interpreter said that “in Puerto Rico the blacks… are not black. The blacks are from over there in Africa … Those from here did not come from Africa. Do not strike this crap here. That is a problem that they have, but there they, that they kill themselves over there. ”
Their expressions came amid the massive protests taking place in the United States to demand that they justify the death of George Floyd, a black man who was killed by a white police officer.
Given this, the artist granted an interview to the announcer Jorge Pabón, better known as Molusco, to apologize.
“I understood that many people could be offended and I accept him as a man that I am. I said something that is easy to misinterpret, and I am not justifying myself, because I am apologizing to all the people who have been offended, to all the people who took it offensively, “he said, while reiterating that” I regret to have said it. “
Cosculluela emphasized that “I am in favor of the revolution, of this world uprising due to the death of George Floyd”.
