Residente On Frustration w/ Grammys, Bad Bunny, + 'This Is Not America'

[@60beatsCrimeFamilyEnt]

I RESPECT THIS MAN FOR REASONS PEOPLE WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND. GOOD DUDE, GOOD FOR MUSIC AND THE WORLD.

[@norafabery1323]

Completely agreed with René. I have been saying that for so many years. Use the word Americans to identify people from the United States is so wrong and delusive. Any body who lives in any of the America's.: North, South or Central, deserved to be called Americans. Also incorrect is when they ask you if you are American citizen. I'm a USA citizen, not american. I'm glad that someone like you bring this up and hope that eventually the term gets corrected.

[@LulyTubee]

I wish he could express himself in English the way he dose in Spanish. Though I don't always agree with him, he makes sense on alot of topics. Makes you think, see things in other perspective thru his art form. Blessing to him 💓

That there could have even been a track with Eminem and Residente both on it leaves me hoping it's still possible. Because "it's fire" wouldn't even be a good enough description for what that type of track would sound like. Fingers crossed it's still possible.

[@daryanen]

I saw an interview where he said that the collab was gonna happen but the people that were organizing the whole thing wanted Residente to rap/write in English and he wasn’t into that. His forte is Spanish and they wanted him to comply to his second language which is not fair.

Is not even “America” it is ABYA YALA. And it has been known for thousands of years for our ancestors here in our continent. American was made only for the white settlers as they were constructing their new government on top of another civilization. That is why American always exclude as Native American, African American and Asian American. However, the descendants of the settlers or real immigrants should acknowledge and recognize where they come from and who lived and took care of this land of our ABYA YALA.

I appreciate Residente, but I disagree. The word America or American(s) is not meant to be exclusionary. It’s a word that helps us describe a group of people.
