And that reputation includes ripping off his musicians for "da Mony"..And getting his butt kicked by some of them in Centro Habana...One of my most memorable concerts in Cuba was at El Morro..He was the headliner..I know many musicians here and there..Ive known about his "way" of doing bz. Sometimes,just talent alone and not the person himself,is what we see..The man was hot..This guy took you from here to there,sideways,upside down and back again..Will I still listen to his music? Yes! I aint Babalu blog. And neither is Val Santana.But his reasons for being here,his main reason was that he had to..The boy lived like a king in Cuba. Thanks to the hand that taught him.
