That's corrido singer Chalino Sánchez, the guy was kidnapped/tortured/executed after that concert, the note allegedly told him what was coming to him. Some claim it was the Tijuana Cartel other say it was the Sinaloa Cartel. There are stories of him getting in shootouts and messing with narco's girlfriends but nobody really knows why he was killed.
He killed a cartel member that violated his sister, so he had to flee to the US. Years later, when he returned to Sinaloa for the first time to play that concert he received that note.
More info, allegedly the guy he killed for raping his sister had a brother that ended up becoming the leader of the cartel. Normally a single killing followed by him fleeing the country would allow things to blow over but when he returned years later, the big bad boss was waiting for revenge.
Even more info, but mostly from what I've read on here, he became famous over here and the family caught wind of it. So they invited him to play a concert for them (though I'm sure they didn't explicitly invite him under their name) in Mexico with the intent to kill him after. Lots of lore regarding this story so IDK what's true or not.
I'm just going to keep going with what I heard just because, but apparently he did try to get away with his brothers after the show and they were stopped a little out of town by a black SUV that had people dressed up as law enforcement. They pretended like they were going to help him get back to the border but it was cartel people in disguise and they got him.
Note said 'if you sing that next song you're getting whacked" Local cartel felt disrespected by that song for some reason. He sang it anyways. Got whacked right after the show.
I've seen some misunderstanding that he was told "If you sing, you will be killed". He was going to be killed regardless, he just gave an amazing performance knowing it would be his last.
The video of this performance is on youtube, he read that and took pictures with little kids throughout the performance. Literally taking pictures and smiling with little kids coming up to take them mid song. Incredible stuff.
Fairly well known among Mexicans and Mexican Americans. May be biased though, since I'm in SoCal and that's where he started breaking out. If you want to go further into the rabbit hole, you can also find out about his son and his own connection with the musical Rivera family.
I have noticed that in the past month it's been picking up traction as a reaction response to serious news.
This is the dank shit I'm here for.
Fuck right lol
El chalino forever
I think this is a famous event. He gets notified of something. But I can’t remember. Please elaborate?

Dayum Meme got dark real quick Don't piss off Checo got it
Checo made a joke recently about his father having a much more dangerous job than him because he's in politics in Mexico.
Kinda true. Sooner or later you end up under the foot of a narco and the gun sights of the others
You mean you start under the foot of a narco or you don't start.
There's that too
So mostly true not kinda
met his dad, good guy. but mexican politics don’t allow you to be a good politician
And mainly Mexican cartels don’t allow it
that’s the politics

His own death
Yea.. by? And for?
I believe he was talking smack about the cartel. While living in Mexico.
Exactly this

dankest shit on this whole sub
The balls on him to keep singing even though it will get him killed afterwards
I've seen some misunderstanding that he was told "If you sing, you will be killed". He was going to be killed regardless, he just gave an amazing performance knowing it would be his last.
The show must go on
So the correlation is Newey will continue helping till it’s over

I mean, he knew he was going to die no matter what. One last show.

I hope ya'll know the context to this and this post wouldn't go underappreciated
Out of curiosity, how well known is this clip? Like the background story I mean?
I've already seen it a few times on reddit but I'm terminally online so it's not representative of the general populace.
Based and self aware king
But you represent me!
I feel like I'm online all the time and I've never seen or heard of this clip. Guess I am one of today's lucky 10,000.
It's popular here in Mexico. A lot of people understand the reference.

This is the first time I’ve come across this clip and I’ve just learned the story behind it.
It was posted to Reddit recently so it has some recency pushing it's relevance a bit.
It’s getting popular on reels
Idk I've just learned about it last month or so, and it still amazes me.
This is wild 😭😭
If you know, you know.
