Natanael Cano Defies Ban on Narcocorridos, Performs Tumbados at Aguascalientes Fair

  • On May 3, Natanael Cano challenged a narcocorrido ban by performing songs that glorified organized crime at the annual fair held in Aguascalientes.
  • The ban followed legislation approved April 16 that penalizes musical expressions promoting organized crime, with local authorities restricting such content at public events.
  • During his set, Cano played controversial songs like "Cuerno Azulado" and "Pacas de Billetes," prompting organizers to lower volume and eventually cut the lights to end the show.
  • Cano responded to the crowd saying, "Cuerno isn't something you need to ask me for, my friend," while his team activated an independent audio system to continue performing.
  • This event highlights ongoing tensions as several artists comply with local bans while others challenge them, with Aguascalientes among Mexican states enforcing penalties up to prison for glorifying crime.
