The ongoing rivalry between Cuban reggaeton stars Yomil and Ovi has once again ignited social media, as the two artists engage in another heated exchange. This latest clash began when Ovi posted a provocative comment on Instagram, which Yomil was quick to address.
Ovi's comment, dripping with challenge, asked, "Oeee Yomil, can you do what I do? Go global if you can," implying that his career has achieved more international reach than Yomil's. In response, Yomil crafted a detailed message on Lagueah El Árabe's post, where he defended his career, emphasized his impact in Cuba, and questioned Ovi's rise in the music industry. "That's nothing... You should be ashamed to call yourself international when you haven't even done a concert," Yomil remarked, suggesting that true success is proven through live performance and public support.
Yomil insisted that despite not having a global hit, his influence on Cuban music is undeniable: "I haven't had an international hit, but I have a career and over 100 hit songs in my country," he stated, highlighting his strong connection with audiences on the Island. He further criticized what he sees as Ovi's reliance on industry backing: "None of what you have is yours; you owe your entire life to those who signed you," he claimed.
Additionally, Yomil pointed out, "You started singing when you heard Doping, and after the Cuban family interview, you began working with Cubans," he asserted.
Ovi, on the other hand, chose a brief and sarcastic reply on Un Martí To' Durako's post, which shared screenshots of their exchange: "Not even my woman... I don't have time to read all that," dismissing Yomil's lengthy message.
The confrontation rapidly went viral, shared by numerous urban entertainment accounts, and sparked a flurry of reactions from fans of both artists. While some back Yomil's strong message, others support Ovi's laid-back attitude and his success beyond Cuba.
This incident adds to a series of previous exchanges, marking a contentious relationship that dates back years. It is evident from this new chapter that the rivalry between Yomil and Ovi is far from over, continuing to fuel social media with each provocation.
