Naim Thomas talks about the death of Álex Casademunt for the first time

Focused on work after the unexpected death of Álex Casademunt, Naim Thomas has just premiered a play at Madrid’s Teatro Luchana, “What would you be able to do to change your destiny?”.

The artist speaks for the first time of the death of his great friend and colleague, of his absence in a last goodbye to which the majority of triumphs attended, and of the emotional farewell letter that he published on his social networks talking about his feelings after this very hard loss.

– CHANCE: Good morning Naim, how are you? Doing the job.

– NAIM: Yes, what it touches. Luckily you can, that is already a lot as things are.

– CH: We came to ask you about the farewell letter to your friend Álex Casademunt, it has been much commented on and highly applauded.

– NAIM: As you can see, I am not the person to talk about any of this, silence is the best policy in this regard, but to say what I felt about certain attacks, well neither attacks, I was blamed for not having been able to go, no I had been able to go because we were just going to rehearsals, one thing is to work yourself and another to play with the work of other colleagues who did not give us time.

– CH: It is clear that the main reason was work, you are doing a very important work, in very difficult moments.

– NAIM: I spoke with the family on the same day and I speak with them practically every day, I have a very fluid relationship, the mother already commented in an interview on Telemadrid, if you don’t mind I prefer not to talk much about the subject, the thing is a little soft.

– CH: It has attracted a lot of attention because you do not express yourself and you opened the channel.

– NAIM: Yes, I have never been asked, it is not that it was something secret or anything like that, surely I am never asked, I do not apologize for showing my life, but it is what it is, it is what it is and it is the things that one has gone through, his thing is to digest it calmly.

– CH: How you remember your great partner.

– NAIM: With your permission I keep it for myself.

– CH: He was going to release a single, can you imagine that a great reminder could be made to him, your music is his voice now more than ever.

– NAIM: We don’t know anything about what they are going to do, we just want silence, I think it’s the best and what the family is doing as well.

– CH: The family continues to contact you.

– NAIM: Great.

– CH: You needed to clarify it because your absence was commented, you felt pressure or discomfort.

– NAIM: No, no pressure, it is more than anything an internal issue and the fact of not being able to be in a place where you think you have to be. I said it through comments that spoke without knowing, as we almost always speak without knowing and in this case I wanted to clarify it. I am not to make many public clarifications.

– CH: Other information pointed out that other people did not want to attend because they did not gain notoriety.

– NAIM: In my case I did not attend because I could not attend. The family has never been there, I don’t think it was. In my case, I did not want to be the protagonist writing that letter that I just achieved the opposite of what I wanted, but hey.

– CH: The companions were able to speak.

– NAIM: Thanks guys.
