Otaola has organized boycotts on Cuban artists such as
Haila Mompié, Jacob Forever, El Micha, and
Gente de Zona which has resulted in their shows being canceled in Miami. As a result of his social media activism,
Haila Mompié was declared persona non grata in the city of
Miami by the mayor
Francis Suarez. In 2019, Otaola criticized the daughter of
Raúl Castro,
Mariela Castro, for canceling the annual gay pride parade in Cuba and failing to protect gay rights activists from violence by Cuban security forces. On social media, Otaola has attempted to uncover Ciberclarias, which he claims are false profiles that spread propaganda for the Cuban government. On February 29, 2020, Otaola organized a caravan in
Calle Ocho, Miami, for the liberation of Cuba, the release of political prisoners in Cuba, and to support the Trump administration's policies on Cuba. During the
George Floyd protests, Otaola joined the BlackTuesday campaign on Instagram in support of black victims of police violence and added the hashtag #AllLivesMatter. Otaola said on his show: "If we are going to fight racism, it is not by segregating or separating into races that we are going to achieve it". He also said the
murder of George Floyd was not justified and the police officer kneeling on his neck should be punished. He also expressed his belief that mainstream media and the left were trying to promote vandalism and portray Floyd like a hero. later that year, he proved that alleged videos of Ferrer showing aggression and displaying weapons were manipulated. Upon Ferrer's being remanded to house arrest in 2020, Ferrer was interviewed on
Hola Ota-Ola! and expressed gratitude for raising awareness to secure his release. == Controversy ==
