“Men don't have to live with any kind of pressure, not from here or there. “He that knoweth that he giveth, telleth you the truth, and riseth up.”Frias explained his position with a video of about ten minutes on his social networks.
The artist began by clarifying that He personally won't sing in Cuba until the government changes, but he demands respect for those who decide to do so.
“Until when? Why does someone holding a microphone in front of them have the authority to force someone to do something they don't want to do? For what reason? Why, if you don't want to say 'end the dictatorship,' do you have to say it?” El Niño and La Verdad question, who says he was a friend of El Micha (Michael Fernández Sierra Miranda). For years, he says, they haven't seen each other.
“Is Micha now a communist because he wants to go play in Cuba? El Micha needs Cuba because he carries Cuba in his heart. And there is no other common people there, it does not exist, it has nothing to do with government, it has nothing to do with dictatorship.”He insisted that “Michael is not a communist” and that he “wants to touch his people”.
“How long is the witch hunt with artists?”He then questioned.
“I'm not there to judge him. I'm not going to judge him. I'm not going to play when that government is there. I'm not going to go, but that's who I am, and I'm not going to go because of everything they've done to me and the way I've had to leave,” he said of his particular case. explained.
Musician El Tiger mentioned and emphasized on Dani Om and other artistes who decided to perform again on the island. It should be each person's choice and not be dictated by a third party.

[Cruz] That's how Willy did it [Chirino]Let them do it, and I plan to do it that way, but let no one do it, gentlemen. Now good, now stop the madness, increasingly disintegrating,” he insisted.
Emilio Frias took the opportunity to make a general note Many now live in Miami and benefited from government benefits while they were on the island.
“There are people who still do business in this city, people who live there do business in Miami, and I'm talking about big people,” he pointed out, without naming names.
According to Frias, an artist living in Miami was called “Long Live the Revolution!” Shouting that is not allowed.
“An artist who wants to be impartial, let him be; 'Long live Fidel!' He can't shout that or say that there is no dictatorship in Cuba, but El Micha made a song against it. If he wants to play in Cuba, he should go to Cuba and play,” the actor added, asking Cubans not to play anymore with people who have created so much disunity and so much pain in society.
“There are a lot of people here who have been living with this pain for years. This business has been going on for years on both sides and even the politicians are amused by it. Don't be fooled anymore. “No more bashing the artists, let the artists do the art.”He reiterated.
“That is democracy, that is freedom. Many people do not understand this even though they have been here for many years. Why should I say what you want to say and when? “The pusher doesn't attack himself,” added the singer, who used the opportunity to clarify that in his case he would not sing in Cuba, but that he would visit his family as much as possible.
“Respect, if you're in a free country, respect that everyone does what they want”He finished.
