\n\tMan\u00e1<\/a> has pulled its Nicky Jam<\/a> collaboration from music streaming platforms following the reggaet\u00f3n star\u2019s endorsement of Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Sunday (Sept. 15), the legendary Mexican rock band posted a statement on social media explaining why the group decided to remove its 2016 reimagining of \u201cDe Pies a Cabeza\u201d from streaming services after Nicky\u2019s public endorsement of Trump over the weekend.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\tDonald Trump Confuses Nicky Jam for a Woman Ahead of Latin Star\u2019s Endorsement Speech in\u2026\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\t\u201cMan\u00e1 doesn\u2019t work with racists,\u201d the Fher Olvera-fronted band wrote in Spanish on Instagram<\/a>, drawing mixed reactions in the comments section. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFor the past 30 years, Man\u00e1 has supported and defended the rights of Latinos around the world. There is no business or promotion that is worth more than the dignity of our people. That is why today Man\u00e1 decided to remove its collaboration with Nicky Jam on \u2018Pies a Cabeza\u2019 from all digital platforms.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMan\u00e1 and Jam\u2019s reggae-tinged version of the band\u2019s 1992 classic song \u201cDe Pies a Cabeza\u201d premiered in 2016, reaching No. 1 on Billboard<\/em>\u2018s Latin Airplay chart. At the time of its release, Nicky called Man\u00e1 one of his idols<\/a> and said, \u201cI never thought I\u2019d work with them so this is a blessing.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMan\u00e1\u2019s decision to pull \u201cDe Pies a Cabeza\u201d from streamers comes after Trump\u2019s Las Vegas campaign rally on Friday (Sept. 13), during which Nicky took the stage to support the former president as he faces off against Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 U.S. presidential election.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s an honor to meet you, Mr. President. People that come from where I come from, they don\u2019t meet the president. So I\u2019m lucky,\u201d said the 43-year-old reggaet\u00f3n vet, who relocated from Massachusetts to Puerto Rico at a young age. \u201cWe need you. We need you back, right? We need you to be the president.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tIn what\u2019s become an embarrassing viral moment, Trump mistakenly referred to Nicky as a \u201cshe\u201d<\/a> when introducing him to the Vegas crowd for his endorsement speech.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cDo you know Nicky? She\u2019s hot. Where\u2019s Nicky?\u201d Trump said while looking off to the side for the \u201cX\u201d singer. A few moments later, the ex-POTUS spotted the Latin star and realized his mistake. \u201cOh, look, I\u2019m glad he came up,\u201d Trump said as he patted Nicky\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n

\n\tMan\u00e1 has been a strong supporter of Democratic causes over the years, particularly related to immigration reform and other Latino related issues. \u201cThe way Trump expresses himself about Mexicans and the Latin community is incredible,\u201d Olvera tweeted in Spanish<\/a> following a 2016 presidential debate. \u201cLike a lot of people have perceived it, he is a racist.\u201d The Mexican band also celebrated President Joe Biden\u2019s 2020 win, writing on Twitter<\/a> (now X), \u201cValues won over provision. There\u2019s unity in diversity.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tNicky Jam is one of many\u00a0music stars who have endorsed<\/a>\u00a0the 78-year-old businessman-turned-politician in his 2024 re-election bid. In late August, Puerto Rican reggaet\u00f3n stars Anuel AA and Justin Quiles\u00a0took the stage<\/a>\u00a0to support Trump at a rally in Johnstown, Penn. Other artists who support the former president include Jason Aldean, Kid Rock, Kodak Black, Lil Pump, Sexyy Red and Billy Ray Cyrus.<\/p>\n
