NEW YORK – Latin pop icon Ricardo Arjona is undoubtedly one of the most important singer-songwriters in Latin America, but the COVID-19 pandemic has apparently erased the memory of many New Yorkers.
The singer decided to give a surprise serenade in a New York subway station in a very humble way: with a chair and his guitar. But, as he himself said, “he would lie saying that he was a good singer in the New York subway.”
And it is that nobody stopped to contemplate that guitarist sitting in a corner of what seems to be a platform of the F train dressed in a hat, glasses and a very casual wardrobe, according to a video published by Arjona on his Instagram account, the which he accompanied with a text where he highlighted his best moment when he exchanged words with a Mexican fan; But, what ironies of life, she assured him to her own face that it was not him!
“I would lie to say that singing in the New York subway went well for me. The best thing that happened to me was a Mexican lady who told me that I was an Arjona impersonator but that I was too tall, that the real Arjona was very short. #Black go back to the street again. “
A word of advice Ricardo: if you are looking to regain your deserved fame in New York, next time pass as a taxi driver.
Recently New York and other parts of the tri-state area have been affected by an infestation of lantern flies from China and South Asia that threaten agriculture, as they feed mainly on plants. But, apparently, not even these tedious insects roamed the subway during Arjona’s presentation.
