[edit] Cultural reference
Chicky Starr's name became a popular Puerto Rican cultural reference as the phrase "bregaste bien Chicky Starr" ("You very much handled this 'Chicky Starr style'") became popular in the mid-1990s. The phrase likened Starr's name with betrayal; Starr would earn a reputation for double-crossing some of the talent managed by him based on convenience. The phrase is still in common use in Puerto Rico.
