Recent remarks by singer Hallel Génesis have reignited tensions with popular Cuban content creator Kenny Robert. During an interview on El Clave Podcast, Hallel was directly asked about her relationship with Kenny. She did not mince words, stating that there is "no longer any relationship" between them, citing that "many codes were broken" and emphasizing that friendships require mutual respect.
Hallel seized the opportunity to discuss her personal and professional growth, suggesting that some conflicts with industry figures stem from unease with her musical progress. "Often, the success of others bothers those who dislike seeing others succeed," she remarked, though she didn't mention Kenny directly at this point. She revealed that the pressure from these conflicts affected her physically, sometimes confining her to bed for days. Regardless, she remains focused on advancing in urban music, steering clear of controversies.
She noted, "There were people who wanted to stir up trouble," and posed a question seemingly aimed at her former friend: "Why should a friend's success bother you? My success uplifts those around me." With these words, Hallel indicated that their fallout was not just personal but also played out in the public sphere.
Kenny Robert was quick to respond to her statements, posting a video on social media shortly afterward. Through his character Jessica, he dismissed any reconciliation prospects. Surrounded by a candle, a glass of water, and flowers, he stated these were "for Hallel's spirit to find peace." He added, "We were never friends."
Kenny directly addressed Hallel's claims of success with sarcasm: "Your success? Samantha is the one on top. And alcohol for your pain," making it clear he doesn't see her as a significant figure in the current scene. He also vowed not to mention her again: "I talk about what's trending, and you're not. You're irrelevant."
This incident is the latest in a series of public disputes that began in May when Hallel unfollowed Kenny on Instagram. At that time, he reacted with a strong message: "Anyone who doesn't like my content can get in line. I have talent." For many, this was the first sign of an irreparable split.
Later, Kenny escalated the drama by symbolically "burying" Hallel, along with Rachel Arderi and Samantha Espineira, with whom he also had conflicts. This theatrical yet controversial gesture was seen as a final declaration: once you're on his "buried" list, there's no coming back.
Hallel's comments on El Clave Podcast and Kenny's immediate response have sparked renewed debate on social media. Some support Hallel's stance, claiming her artistic journey has incited jealousy, while others side with Kenny, questioning her claims of "success" given her music's limited impact beyond her high-profile relationship with Tekashi 6ix9ine.
Ultimately, the controversy confirms what many suspected: their relationship has ended. Their public statements and reactions leave no room for doubt, and reconciliation seems unlikely. As Hallel strives to solidify her music career and turn criticism into creative fuel, Kenny Robert continues with his signature approach: candid, provocative, and unfiltered. Both move forward on separate paths, with their public breakup serving as yet another example of how social media has become the main stage for ending friendships in Cuban entertainment.
