Cuban reggaeton artist El Taiger is currently fighting for his life in intensive care after being discovered with a gunshot wound to the head in Miami. The 37-year-old singer, whose real name is José Manuel Carvajal Zaldívar, was reportedly found seriously wounded Thursday inside a black Mercedes Benz in the city’s Allapattah neighborhood, according to People En Espanol. He was transported by fire rescue to the Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Health. A hospital spokesperson confirmed to Telemundo 51 that the singer is in “critical condition.” A rep for El Taiger refused to offer any additional details into the incident, telling the outlet an official statement will be released pending an investigation. El Taiger, best known for the songs “Coronamos,” “Invictos,” and “Hear Me,” was previously arrested in Miami for drug possession and armed robbery in March 2023. On July 28 of this year, he was arrested again in Miami for armed robbery, assault and cocaine possession. “Marca Mandarina,” El Taiger’s latest single (a collaboration with fellow Cuban reggaeton artist Bebeshito), has surpassed 25 million views on YouTube since being released this summer.
