In March 2018, Hasél was sentenced to two years in prison for praising GRAPO terrorism and insulting King Juan Carlos I on Twitter.[11] In early 2021, he was ordered to voluntarily enter prison to serve a nine-month sentence for this conviction. He publicly refused this order,[31] and was eventually arrested on 16 February. Hasel, alongside a group of over 50 students, had barricaded himself inside University of Lleida’s rectorate building in protest against his sentence.
I had some doubts but looks like they actually booked him for insulting the king. I find this too ridiculous to believe for an European country in the 21st century. But turns out, another rapper had to flee to Belgium for similar reasons.
Yep, he basically says out loud what a lot of people think, namely criticising the monarchy and the capitalist state. And of course the state cant let that go unpunished.

I had no idea Spain was like this.

Anyway, Pablo Hasél is a great musician, here’s his song Comunista (English lyrics).
