Is Cuban Artist Chocolate MC Facing Imminent Deportation? Here Are the Charges Against Him

Saturday, April 26, 2025 by Emma Garcia

Cuban reggaeton star Chocolate MC might be on the verge of being deported back to Cuba, as new arrest warrants and a growing criminal record in the United States loom over him. Journalist Mario Vallejo disclosed that the urban artist, whose real name is Yosvanis Arismín Sierra Hernández, has active warrants in three Florida counties: Miami-Dade, Escambia, and Pasco, as well as another undisclosed charge in Texas.

According to reports from Florida, Chocolate MC faces an assault charge, during which he allegedly removed his electronic ankle monitor and fled. Additionally, he is dealing with two other charges related to issues with his driver's license.

In a recent livestream from a swimming pool, the self-proclaimed "King of Reparteros" openly challenged the Miami-Dade police to find and arrest him. "Let them do their job," he taunted in a mocking tone while enjoying the sun and water. "Miami-Dade Police, stop being on social media and the news, and do your work, you bunch of corrupts," he wrote in his Instagram stories.

One of the police officers involved in his pursuit, who has previously arrested him, stated that Chocolate's behavior is habitual: he often mocks authorities and provokes them through social media when facing legal troubles.

Why Hasn't He Been Deported Yet?

A question that lingers among fans and critics alike is why Chocolate MC has not been deported to Cuba yet, considering his criminal record in the United States. This is especially relevant amid the ongoing wave of deportations by ICE, which includes individuals without legal issues in the U.S.

"Maybe this time he will be deported, maybe not, it's uncertain," responded the officer contacted by Vallejo, leaving the door open to a possibility that has yet to materialize. If arrested this time, the reggaeton artist could face a significant amount of time behind bars, as warned by the journalist.

For now, Chocolate continues to defy the law with the same controversial attitude that has characterized his career in both music and beyond.
