Measured over 14 original posts, its engagement rate beats 68% of 3,882 tracked accounts of a similar size, which puts it in the middle of its size range rather than at either end.

Posting runs at about 0.5 post a day over the last 30 days, though only 40% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Saturday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 14 posts sampled, 86% carry an image or video and 29% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 13K interactions, about 17x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size
Rubén Blades's engagement rate beats 68% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 9 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.
On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 81% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

At 0.076%, Rubén Blades sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.012% to 0.081%.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

“INDIO” SOLARI Se ha mudado "al otro barrio" el músico argentino Carlos Alberto Solari, mejor conocido como “Indio” Solari. No tuve oportunidad de conocerlo en persona, lo cual no me impide valorar lo que significa su trabajo artístico, su postura independiente, su compromiso con la memoria y su ascendente infinito que atraviesa generaciones de argentinas y argentinos, va mi saludo solidario y mi afecto para ellos y ellas, para su familia y amigos.

RUBEN RADA Ha fallecido Rubén Rada, icónico músico uruguayo, de amplia y distinguida trayectoria en el quehacer artístico latinoamericano y mundial. Fue compositor, cantante, escritor y actor. Se distinguió a través de seis décadas como defensor y expositor del Candombe, un ritmo originario de la región africana de Angola, traído por esclavos a Suramérica en los siglos XVII y XVIII, específicamente a Argentina y al Uruguay. El Negro Rada, como era cariñosamente conocido, experimentó fusionando el Candombe con otros géneros musicales como el "rock" y el "jazz". Poseedor de una exuberante personalidad, su sentido del humor y eterna curiosidad por su alrededor fueron característicos durante su recorrido terrenal. Rada nos deja una impresionante cantidad de ejemplos durante sus más de cincuenta años como profesional del arte, innumerables grabaciones, como solista, miembro de banda y colaboraciones con otros colegas. Fue productor de discos, compuso temas musicales para otros, filmó películas, fue animador y conductor de programas de televisión, el carisma y la energía de Rada lo distinguirán para siempre y le garantizan un merecido sitial en el universo de la música y el respeto de la comunidad artística internacional. Envío mi abrazo y afecto a su familia, seres queridos, colegas músicos y al pueblo del Uruguay. Hoy, Rubén Rada, nacido como yo un 16 de Julio, descansa mientras su extraordinaria y amplia contribución al arte continúa educando, divirtiendo, creando caminos, orientando, influyendo e inspirando a nuevas generaciones. ¡Dios te cuida, tocayo!.

"La vida te da sorpresas" no es solo un coro. Rubén Blades explica que Pedro Navaja conectó porque habla de poder, abuso, ironía y de algo profundamente humano: la posibilidad de que todo cambie de golpe. #RubénBlades #PedroNavaja #Aprendemosjuntos https://t.co/u5FEiTNPmm

A COLOMBIA Lamentamos el trágico incidente en el suroccidente de Colombia, y condenamos la violencia que provoca víctimas inocentes, impide el dialogo, la negociación civilizada y que desata reacciones de igual crueldad y brutalidad. A los familiares y seres queridos de los afectados por el atentado y a Colombia entera, nuestra solidaridad con su dolor y la esperanza de que el conflicto sea resuelto con justicia, de forma concertada y pacífica.

Anoche Luba y yo participamos como invitados en el concierto del cantante checo, Jan Smigmator @smigmator , en Praga (Rep. Checa). Hicimos tres canciones cada uno y un dueto. El público nos dio total apoyo. “El Cantante” fue especialmente aplaudido. Luba cantó uno de los temas en el idioma eslovaco de sus padres y el teatro la ovacionó emocionado. Gracias a Jan por invitarnos y al público presente por su calidez.

- What is Rubén Blades's engagement rate on X?
- Rubén Blades (@rubenblades) has an engagement rate of 0.076%, based on the median interactions across 14 original posts from the last 30 days against 1,002,089 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
- Is that a good engagement rate?
- At 0.076%, Rubén Blades sits above the 25th percentile of the 37,582 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
- Does @rubenblades have real engagement?
- Its engagement rate beats 68% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (3,882 accounts), which puts it in the middle of its size range group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
- When does @rubenblades post?
- Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Saturday is its busiest day, at roughly 0.5 posts per day across the measured window.
