MIAMI - In the epic arena of Santiago Bernabéu, where the fourth annual "La Velada del Año" took place, fans expected nothing but electrifying performances and high-octane fights. This year, the crowd was also treated to a musical showdown alongside the physical brawls. Will Smith had the audience on their feet with a dazzling performance, while Anuel AA's set turned into a headline-grabbing fiasco. The Puerto Rican singer's off-key performance without the help of autotune was met with boos.
Anuel AA's disastrous eight-minute performance in the Real Madrid stadium quickly spiraled into a social media frenzy. He didn't hold back in blaming the night's host, Ibai Llanos, for what he called a sabotage, prompting him to point fingers and reveal a surprising secret: he uses a voice engineer.
Anuel threatens Ibai Llanos
"The crap they pulled on me, that Ibai guy sabotaged my whole concert," he ranted on Instagram Live on Sunday night. Anuel claimed that his DJ was restricted from doing his job, and his voice engineer, who usually fine-tunes his live performances, was barred from assisting. "Now everyone knows: they didn't let my DJ throw the show, and they didn't let my engineer fix my voice during the concert."
He was convinced this was revenge for arriving five minutes late. "They said I was two hours late, but no, papi, I had another concert before that and got there five minutes late. Seems like that pissed them off," he said, also alleging that the voice heard during his performance wasn't his real voice. "What came out on TV wasn't my voice. They know what they did with the system because they controlled it. That Ibai guy, those people. Did you notice they were making jokes with my name before I came on stage?"
La Velada del Año
The Velada del Año 4 wasn't just another event; it was a streaming colossus. With 80,000 tickets sold for the live event and over 3.5 million unique devices tuned in on Twitch, the stakes were sky-high. This backdrop made Anuel AA's slip-up all the more glaring. His response to the booing and the online mockery was to shift the blame entirely onto the event organizers and Ibai Llanos. "They played me well," he fumed.
In a twist of irony, Anuel AA's accusations of sabotage and his admission of relying on a voice engineer sparked a wave of reactions. Some fans expressed disappointment, feeling that the revelation tainted the authenticity of live performances.
Others saw it as a necessary behind-the-scenes look at the music industry. For Ibai Llanos, a seasoned YouTuber and event organizer, it was just another controversy to navigate. He took to his platforms to address the accusations humorously, denying any foul play and suggesting that Anuel might be covering up his own unpreparedness.

Despite the uproar, the Velada del Año 4 remains a blockbuster event, blending the worlds of streaming, music, and amateur boxing. For Anuel AA, it was a night to forget, but one that fans and spectators will remember for a long time. Ironically, this was Anuel's best chance to recover his status as a trap king and leave behind years of beefs —Arcangel, Bad Bunny and Feid, being the latest—but sadly, his performance in Madrid just lef him with another scandal.
