Cuban musician Jose Manuel Carbajal Zaldivar, known as “El Taiger,” died Thursday in the US city of Miami at 37, his family said, a week after he was shot in the head and hospitalised.

A popular “urbano” singer who mixed reggaeton with traditional Cuban music, he was known for songs such as “La Historia,” “Papelito” and “Habla Matador.”
