Tensions are escalating as Daddy Yankee faces serious allegations from Mireddys González’s lawyer. The dispute between the artist and his former manager has captured widespread attention, centered on legal conflicts regarding the management of Daddy Yankee’s business ventures. Amid mutual accusations and mounting tensions, the case grows more intricate with each development.

On the other hand, Daddy Yankee's legal team is accusing the defendants of slowing down the process by submitting old, irrelevant documents, which they see as a stalling tactic—especially since the case involves the potential sale of his music catalog.
A key point in the conflict involves Daddy Yankee's legal team seeking a general representation letter that would allow him to take complete control of his companies, El Cartel Records and Los Cangris Inc., both created to support his music career.

In response, the defendants have officially asked the court to dismiss the reggaeton star's lawsuit.

His legal team, comprising Carlos Díaz Olivo, Heileene Colberg Birriel, and Anabelle Torres Colberg, argues that the sisters have filed "empty motions" and failed to comply with court orders requiring updated documentation on corporate management.
Daddy Yankee's attorneys assert that the provided materials pertain to legal matters from over a decade ago and lack relevant information about the current status of El Cartel Records and Los Cangris Inc. Despite the escalating tensions, the reggaeton star remains composed. "I am happy to resume the presidency. This is a process I have approached with much peace, tranquility, and composure," he remarked during the initial hearing.

This resolution was confirmed by their legal teams after Judge Anthony Cuevas Ramos called for a private meeting to help settle the matter. As part of the agreement, Daddy Yankee will take back the presidency of both companies, with the first meeting to make this official scheduled for December 26 at 11:00 a.m. Furthermore, $75 million will remain in both companies for 30 days, while any additional funds will be placed in escrow, requiring approval from both parties for transactions over $100,000.
