How did Cuba's biggest musical idol manage to escape across the Texas border, only to be silenced for seven years in exile? 😱 Discover Carlos Manuel's shocking escape and the dictatorship's dark blackmail. 👇 In the early 2000s, Carlos Manuel Pruneda was the most famous face in Cuba. With his hit "Malo Cantidad," he outsold giants like Los Van Van, Marc Anthony, and Luis Miguel in stadiums. He was the regime's perfect mannequin, but behind the scenes, he lived trapped in a gilded cage. In this episode of Hidden Cuba, we reveal the true story of the defection that humiliated the Cuban state and shattered Musicalia's monopoly. In this video, we'll uncover the darkest details of his escape: 🎤 The Exploited Idol: From his beginnings in the legendary Irakere orchestra with Chucho Valdés, to becoming the king of timba.
