and that the judge in the case is evaluating is related to several testimonies from those close to the producer who spoke of an alleged threat due to business with a well-known reggaeton player: Blessd.

In her statements, used by the butler’s defense to ensure that there could be other motives behind the double crime, Velásquez’s ex-wife mentions a problem that Dr. Velásquez had with the famous singer from Medellín at the time when she broke off her relationship with the producer.
“Ah, the threats, I know he had a problem with Blessd, but I don’t know the details. I don’t know why he always kept me out of office things. But on Monday Blessd’s manager wrote to me and asked me where he was living,” Muñoz said.
And continued: “That seemed very curious to me because I had never spoken to him since before breaking up. There were never any personal communications and it was very coincidental that it was Monday where we agreed to meet on Wednesday, but he never confirmed, canceled or communicated, he only asked me where I was living. “He knew the locations of both of their houses.”.
For his part, El Clooy mentioned the existence of a problem between Blessd and another record label around the time he met Dr. Velásquez, when the latter was manager of Londoño Mesa.

“I met Daniel in 2021. I had a song lined up and they invited me to sing in the company of Blessd. In those days I had a problem with the other record label that today is managed by some Puerto Ricans. He helped me as best he could, but the Puerto Ricans threatened Daniel,” Valoyes explained.
And I add: “With the issue of threats with the previous artist (Blessd), with Ángel Hernández, he has had problems with them. With Blessd that came to ‘street’ issues, that is, of bandits, in fact, they had to talk about that with other combos. I don’t know when that problem ended.”.

“What tragic news I just saw. A lot of growth and lived experiences. Regardless of having broken our working ties, this leaves me shocked. Peace in your grave Doctor Velásquez. What a strong situation“wrote the reggaeton player.
