Cuban reggaeton artist Luis Alberto Almanza González, better known as ‘El Uniko’, surprised by deciding to start his own fast food business in the United States, something that, although it has caused him great satisfaction, also attracted numerous criticisms.
The surprise came from some of the singer’s followers, who along with other users criticized and mocked the urban musician for dedicating himself to food, instead of making a living from his music.
The artist, who arrived in Miami for some time, set up his business at the beginning of December, a food truck with various snacks that have been liked by the public. Despite the questions, the truth is that the reggaeton player is satisfied, and now he came out to defend his work on his social networks.
Through Instagram, El Uniko pointed out that there is nothing to be ashamed of in finding a livelihood for his children, and that he does not allow himself to be intimidated by people who, hidden in usernames, try to denigrate him for having an honest job, which is also successful.
“I wake up and the first thing I see are a lot of comments from supposed little men trying to denigrate me because I am trying to move my business forward. I have two children to support, either with music or selling bread, as you say. “Everyone who sees me on the street knows that the only thing they receive from me is love and affection, but people are so empty and so materialistic that they do not believe in feelings,” the artist wrote.
Without any desire to justify himself, but to clarify, the singer stated that he is not currently working on music because he has not been offered “what he is worth,” and that he does not intend to accept less than what he is asking for.
“No promoter is going to put a price on me. The Uniko is worth $7,000 and I’m not going to lower it from there. Meanwhile, continue fighting with Luis Alberto, who is being billed here and the last thing there is is fear of problems, or of starting from scratch,” added the singer.
The truth is that the reggaeton business is not doing badly at all, because according to the accounts shown by the artist himself, in the last 30 days, the food truck from El Uniko would have raised $19,400.
The figure is enviable compared to any common job in the US, especially if you consider that the 763 transactions of the month represent a decrease of 24% compared to the previous month, despite which he continues to earn almost $20,000.
Regardless of the criticism, El Uniko is enjoying his entrepreneurial side and on his Instagram he presented the new Eiffel Burger, named in honor of the Paris tower for its enormous dimensions, and promoted as “a masterpiece for the palate.”
In addition, the reggaeton player has received the support of famous colleagues such as Chocolate MC, El Yonki and Ani Dieppa, La Superfriky; the comedian Boncó Quiñongo, Eddy K and Jacob Forever, who have eaten at his place. Even reggaeton artist Lenier Mesa helped him promote his business.
