Hey music fans! We've got some big news that might affect your concert plans. The talented Kali Uchis sadly had to cancel her stop in Guadalajara for The Sincerely Tour on February 22. Why, you ask? Well, things turned into quite a whirlwind after Mexico’s top cartel leader, Nemesio 'El Mencho' Oseguera Cervantes, was reportedly killed in a daring operation involving both Mexican and U.S. forces.
The region was thrown into chaos as violence erupted across 20 Mexican states, prompting the show’s promoter, Ocesa, to break the frustrating news on social media. Worry not, though! They promised that ticket refunds are on their way. Kali also took to Instagram Stories to reassure her fans about her safety, saying she's doing well and appreciating everyone's concern.
While Kali's Guadalajara gig might be off, her Mexico City show on February 25 is still marked to rock on at the Palacio de los Deportes. Let's keep our fingers crossed for it!
But it wasn't just Kali’s show that was affected. Other artists like Pancho Barraza and La Arrolladora Banda El Limón also saw their Sunday plans get scrapped due to the turmoil.
The chaos stemmed from the violent aftermath of Oseguera Cervantes’s death, a major event since the days of capturing 'El Chapo' Guzmán. This high-stakes situation is loaded with international tension, as President Claudia Sheinbaum's aggressive anti-cartel stance shines a global spotlight on Mexico.
Stay safe and keep those playlists bumping! For now, if you're in the affected areas, the U.S. State Department has advised folks to 'shelter in place.'
