The label backing Mexican artist Peso Pluma, who might be described as a gangsta rapper if he were a rapper and not basically a mariachi band leader, announced Wednesday they were cancelling Pluma’s October 14th show after the Jalisco New Generation Cartel put up several banners around the city saying they would make it his last if he came into the city, KTLA reports.

At first you might read that and be like “Wow, so this Peso Pluma fella must be another vocal lib celebrity activist who really pissed off the cartels by speaking up for the regular folks who’ve been victimized by the evil assholes” and you’d be wrong because they want Pluma dead for dedicating a song to El Chapo. Yeah, the little prick is just a fan of the Jaliscos’ rivals, the Sinaloa Cartel.

So like how an American rapper might spit lyrics about how badass Al Capone and Tony Montana are, this guy does the same with El Chapo in his non-rap mariachi songs. Except that bastard is still alive, non-fictional, and much of his syndicate is still intact despite his permanent residence in an American federal prison. And he’s still got enemies who want to kill anyone associated with them, even a famous little mulleted singer guy who just this week performed at the American MTV Video Music Awards, not the “MTV en Espanól Musica Premios de Latinoamérica” or whatever.

With the facts above laid out to speak for themselves, we’ll skip the middle-aged white guy bitching about corporate pop culture and its glorification of criminal behavior in gangsta mariachi music.
