video shared to Instagram Stories
on Oct. 24, the Colombian singer addressed the controversy following complaints about the music's video imagery. "I want to say sorry to whomever felt offended, especially to the Black community," the vocalist explained in Spanish. "That's not who I am. I'm about tolerance, love and inclusivity." The video for "Perra"—the Spanish word for a female dog or a "bitch"—which contains lyrics referring to dogs in heat and features Dominican artist, drew criticism when it premiered in early September. In it, Balvin is shown walking two Black women on leashes, while other Black actors wear prosthetics to resemble dogs.
"I also like to support new artists, in this case Tokischa, a woman who supports her people, her community and also empowers women," Balvin added. "As a form of respect, I removed the video eight days ago. But because the criticism continued, I'm here making a statement."
WOWWWWWW
But…if it wasn’t who you are…then why you say ok?
What you are is in denial of DNA and this is what makes you appear less than human and distanced from forgiveness
Too late! He knew what he was doing when he decided to do that video..
Who came up with the concept? And why, didn’t anyone see that this was a bad idea 👎
That’s exactly who he is.
Woww
I hope he gets canceled for ever. 🐴
I don't believe in censoring music. This is disgusting; I would hope the demand would be low.
I'm wondering myself who this guy is?
The sexual and racial degradation was bad, but when I saw the fried chicken in the froot loops? I was like, they're trolling and spitting in our eye. Unless he (Balvin) just showed up on set, and participated in zero 'conceptualizing,' how in FCK did he miss that?
Tarde… si quiso generar vistas y llamar la atención… creo que salió perdiendo.
He said they not finna cancel me 😆

Perra is Spanish for female dog. Wait a minute, you mean to tell me that all the rap/hip hop music videos on youtube don't have not even a tinge of racism, misogyny, or explicit content Not a bit Not to mention no use of racist terms, like, um, like the 'N' word? Has anyone looked at Lil Nas X's stuff? SMH Damn. YouTube censors as much as USA today
