Los Tigres del Norte are puckering up…

The legendary Mexican norteño band will co-headline the first-ever edition of Bésame Mucho, taking place on Saturday, December 3 at Los Angeles’ Dodger Stadium.

Los Tigres del NorteLos Tigres del Norte will headline alongside Julieta Venegas, Café Tacvba, Zoé, Sin Bandera, Juanes and Banda El Recodo, among many other Latin acts who will perform.

The festival featured a head-turning, multigenerational lineup, featuring pop, Regional Mexican, merengue, cumbia and rock artists.

According to the Need Pastel-designed flyer, the Tropicália and La Tocada-organized event will be a one-day festival with three separate stages: Rockero stage, Las Clásicas stage and Te Gusta El Pop? stage.

“I’m there,” someone tweeted. “The lineup is absolutely insane,” another Twitter user wrote.

C-Kan is ready to expand his profile north of the border…

The 33-year-old Mexican rapper has signed with 33 & West talent agency for representation in the U.S. and Canada.

Marking the first time C-Kan has signed with any talent agency for exclusive representation, the artist will be represented by JJ Cassiere and Dan Rozenblum, both partners at the agency.

C-Kan is set to release his forthcoming album, released via the Mastered Trax label, in November and will feature a slew of special guests, including Grupo Firme, Jim Jones, Sonora Dinamita and Merenglass.

Born José Luis Maldonado Ramos, C-Kan became a social media sensation in 2012 thanks to songs like “Voy Por El Sueño De Muchos” and “Te Lloré,” which racked up millions of views on YouTube.

“We talk about real things: the barrio is very important, and it’s important to talk about what you live,” C-Kan said about his music in a previous interview with Billboard. “If I talk about violence, it’s because it exists, it’s not that we created it. It’s the fault of poverty and the lack of education. The young people identify with that in my songs.”

Established in 2017, 33 & West Talent Agency’s diverse music roster currently includes acts like Immortal Technique, Devo, Dance Gavin Dance and Dead Kennedys. C-Kan and 33 & West are planning a headline tour for Summer 2021 with various other Latin Hip Hop acts.
