Controversy
Shorty after the song release, Bad Gyal was criticized for collaborating with Kafu Banton, whom some people referred to as homophobic because of "Pato" (Spanish for "faggot"), a song recorded in the early 2000s in which he talks about physically assaulting gay men. Before the release of the song, Bad Gyal had stated in multiple times that "I would never work with a sexist or homophobic person".
On April 12, Bad Gyal released a statement to an Instagram story, apologizing "to those who felt offended [or] disappointed for my collaboration with Kafu", and noted that, "I didn't know this song existed... My team and I should have informed more [about Kafu Banton's career]." In an interview with 'Shangay' on April 22, Bad Gyal stated that she would give 50% of her profits with the song to Nuevos Horizontes, a Panamanian LGBT association.
On April 13, Kafu Banton posted a statement on Instagram, saying that "Pato"which was included in the 2018 reissue of his greatest hits album 'The Best of Me: Saben Quin Soy'"was a song written and produced more than 20 years ago at the beginning of my career, which did not have the maturity, nor the orientation that I maintain today. I am faithful to my ideals and I fight for social justice."
