The controversy surrounding the song “Rosita“, performed by Tainy, Rauw Alejandro, and Jhayco, continues to escalate. After Cazzu publicly criticized the artists on a Substack post, calling them out for referencing her ex in one of the track’s most talked-about lines, Christian Nodal has responded with a blunt message. In it, he defends the song and addresses accusations about his role as a father.
The lyric in question references someone who “falls in love and gets married quickly, like Christian Nodal.” In her post, Cazzu expanded on the lyric, sharing her personal history and Nodal’s abandonment of her and her daughter, Inti.
“A man with a loving soul isn’t the problem. The real problem is called Chronicle of an Abandonment. And no, I wasn’t the one abandoned,” she wrote in Spanish. Minutes later, Nodal took to social media to push back.
“Damn! What a drama over a lyric that simply says someone falls in love and marries quickly — ‘like Christian Nodal,’” he wrote. He said that the reference was self-directed and even self-deprecating. “It takes two neurons to understand the comparison is about me — even in a tone of mockery about my reputation as a hopeless romantic.”
According to Nodal, “Rosita” was never meant as an attack. “We’re talking about a reggaeton track meant to dance to in 2026, not a treatise on ethics and philosophy,” he said.
Accusations of ‘selective outrage’
The Mexican singer went further, accusing Cazzu of “selective indignation.” Without naming her directly, he referenced what he described as contradictions, suggesting that she has appeared publicly with individuals he claims harmed their relationship, while taking issue with a lyrical mention from fellow artists.
He also addressed a more sensitive topic, their daughter, demanding that the child not be used in a public dispute.
“Motherhood is sacred. That’s precisely why it shouldn’t be used as a shield every time something isn’t liked,” he wrote. “Much less involve my daughter publicly to reinforce a narrative. She is not an argument, not a symbol, not a flag. She is my baby.”
While defending himself, Nodal shared his respect for women who’ve experienced hardship, cautioning against conflating broader social struggles with personal disagreements.
A call for private dialogue
In the last part of his statement, Nodal called for direct communication for the sake of their daughter.
“People understand each other by talking. If something hurts because of friendship, there’s a direct conversation for that. Everything else is spectacle,” he wrote. He said that his legal team continues to work toward a fair arrangement and insisted his intentions as a father remain unchanged.
He closed his argument with a pointed remark: “The world is falling apart, and we’re arguing over a reggaeton lyric. Priorities, people.”
The exchange has ignited debate across social media, turning a single line in a song into a broader conversation about relationships, co-parenting, and public narratives in the Latin music industry.
