Cuban American emcee Pitbull is using his platform to bring awareness to the ongoing protests in Cuba and to call for assistance in helping citizens of the country.

In the nearly two-minute long clip, Pitbull expressed that he is frustrated because he is unable to help his people during these trying times and provide them with food, water, medicine or freedom.

In an effort to gather a group of helpers, he called on world allies, global businesses and successful businessmen like Jeff Bezos to come together and assist the Cuban residents, noting that their joint efforts will contribute in a positive way.

As previously reported, demonstrations erupted in Cuba on Sunday (July 11) and have been ongoing ever since.

Citizens of the country are protesting against rising prices and food and COVID-19 vaccine shortages amid a time of economic crisis, which has been exacerbated amid the pandemic.

So far, one person died, and hundreds have been arrested.
