Award-winning Cuban artist Lenier joins forces with American rapper of Latin origin, 6ix9ine, to unveil their latest single "Leyenda Viva".

The nation's most viral rap star, Daniel Hernandez, popularly known as 6ix9ine, has made a comeback with a captivating Spanish-language production alongside the legendary Cuban artist Lenier, titled "Leyenda Viva (Bori)."

The two artists, who have emerged from humble beginnings, collaborated to create a song that embodies human resilience. The production of Mauro Silvino Bertran "Mauro El Código Secreto" enabled them to convey their message of hope and determination through "Leyenda Viva."

The music video was shot in a creative and organic manner, with renowned producer and visual director Pepe Salom in the rural city of Pinar del Río, Cuba, and Cuban director and cinematographer Adrian Sanchez Avila in Miami, Florida. Real-life events, including 6ix9ine's health condition after a brutal attack in Palm Beach, Florida, were incorporated into the video. The three individuals responsible for the attack were arrested on March 30.

The producers complemented the footage with heartwarming scenes of 6ix9ine's empathy and generosity towards the locals in Pinar del Río. The rapper's positive interactions with the Cuban people and his contributions to the less fortunate have garnered him immense popularity on social media.

"Hey guys, I'm back. Thank you to everyone who called and reached out. I love you guys for real. Living Legend/Leyenda viva," 6ix9ine expressed on social media, announcing the release of the new music video.

The song's success can be attributed in part to Lenier's exceptional songwriting and singing skills, which evoke passion and emotion in every lyric. His outstanding voice and interpretation in "Leyenda Viva" reinforce his reputation as one of Cuba's most talented and respected artists globally.

"Proud to be able to share this song with you, my brother," Lenier addressed 6ix9ine on social media.
"Thanks to Boris, thanks for always supporting Cuban music, Let's go for more," Lenier added.
