Sandro Castro Sparks Controversy with New Dance Challenge: "Gerardo Won't Be Pleased"

Sandro Castro, the grandson of Fidel Castro, is once again in the spotlight—and not in a positive way. This time, he stirred up a storm of comments, ridicule, and criticism by posting a video on his Instagram account. Known for his lavish lifestyle and absurd posts, Sandro is seen embracing a "repartero" persona, dancing with friends beside a classic car, likely a Citroën DS, while holding a Cristal beer.

Alongside the clip, Sandro wrote, "New challenge Cristach," as he awkwardly moves to his urban track "La Cristach." The song includes lyrics like, "Vampires and vampiras, I don't believe in Bucanero, my thing is Cristach, for all the showbiz, here comes Vampirach."

Unsurprisingly, social media reactions came swiftly. Remarks such as "Hey, Gerardo won't like this," "Chocolate MC's heir, Sandrito the prince of reparto," and "This is the summer 2025 hit" show the sarcastic tone with which many Cubans received the video. Some comments targeted Cuba's power circles: "Wait until Raúl finds out," "Canel will come looking for you," "With you as president, many things would change," and "Doesn't Raúl have Instagram?"

Unusual Criticism from Regime Supporters

The timing of Sandro's post is noteworthy. Recently, supporters of the regime have directed unexpected criticism at him, suggesting a possible "green light" to publicly discredit him as a way to distance the higher echelons of power from his antics.

While Sandro has not directly addressed these criticisms, he responded in his usual manner: by posting another video—one that might even rouse Fidel Castro himself from his resting place.
