Oniel Bebeshito is experiencing a pinnacle in his music career and took to Instagram to express heartfelt gratitude to his fans. Reflecting on his beginnings when few had faith in him, he celebrated his rise in the urban music scene, stating, "They all said I was crazy... look at everything I've accomplished." His post was accompanied by astonishing figures: over 117 million views in Havana and more than 36 million in Miami. With hits like "El Punto" and "Tacto que llegó el reparto," he is among the most listened-to artists. Proudly, he declared his commitment to ensuring that his style, "el reparto," gains global recognition by the end of 2026.
The post triggered a flood of reactions, many filled with affection and admiration. Comments such as "The number one of el reparto" and "My idol from day one" were common among hundreds of responses. Even those who aren't fans of the genre applauded the achievement of seeing a Cuban artist succeed on a large scale.
However, not all feedback was positive. Some users recalled the recent controversy involving the singer after Roberto Ferrante, owner of his record label Planet Records, claimed Bebeshito was Cuba's greatest artist, surpassing Celia Cruz. "I think you should change managers or at least disagree with the nonsense he spouted. Celia Cruz was and is a WORLDWIDE and legendary star," wrote one user, urging respect for the legacy of the Queen of Salsa.
Amidst praise, impressive stats, and disputes, there was also a sense of pride: many noted Bebeshito's name alongside Bad Bunny on streaming platforms. In Miami, only the Puerto Rican artist surpasses him in view counts. "Wow, it’s amazing to see your name next to the GOAT Bad Bunny," an excited fan commented. This comparison did not go unnoticed and highlights the Cuban artist's growing influence in Florida's music scene.
Ultimately, despite the criticism and passions he incites, Bebeshito has achieved something significant: he has put "el reparto" on the international map, connected with his audience both on and off the island, and built a loyal community that continues to grow. As he himself stated, "If God wills it, we'll make it worldwide."
