El Tuox Apologizes for Controversial Song 'Fallador'

The controversy surrounding the song 'Fallador', performed by Mr. Fox, Akim, and El Tuox, continues to unfold. This time, El Tuox decided to break his silence and issue a public statement following a communique from the Ministry of Women, which sparked a heated debate on social media. In a message directed to netizens, El Tuox asked for judgments to be withheld until the song's lyrics have been carefully listened to and analyzed, assuring that at no point does it denigrate, offend, or disrespect women. According to the artist, the mentions of public figures in the song are not intended to be disparaging but are part of a narrative that portrays a man boasting about false deeds. 'The song is about a gentleman who lies about what he did and didn't do,' he explained. The artist also took the opportunity to question the criticisms that arose, in his opinion, without having listened to the song in its entirety, insisting that the song has been misinterpreted. 'You can't give an opinion without listening,' he expressed, closing his message with a call to enjoy the song without prejudice. 'If there were people who felt offended by being named, I apologize, it was not my intention, nor that of my colleagues, to disrespect them,' reiterated. El Tuox acknowledged, however, that some people may have felt uncomfortable or affected by the mention of their names, which is why he offered public apologies, clarifying that it was not his intention — nor that of his colleagues — to cause annoyance or degradation. 'Your names were placed in the song, but at no point is there a lack of respect or degradation.'
