Tsk,tsk. Glorifying narco traffickers and still got killed. Whatta shame.

I guess someone didn't like who the "Little Rooster" (El Gallito) was singing about.
In that genre, you have to pick your subjects very, very carefully. Apparently, he did not choose wisely.

Why would drug traffickers kill a musician whose music glorifies drug traffickers? Shouldn’t they pay him instead to lobby on their behalf?
To: NormsRevenge
Tijuana, long a transit point for narcotics heading to the United States, has seen a spike in murders this past year, with drug gangs even killing children. More than 2,500 people were killed in drug violence in Mexico last year and at least 320 people have died so far this year. Defund these bastards: end the Drug War.

Yep. That rope burn was from being Drug behind a truck. Went so fast he kicked up a Rooster tail of dust. Gave him a fatal case of Narcolepsy.

Is that translation “Little Rooster” or “Tiny Cock”. The murder could be the work of an unhappy lover.

To: All
Does anyone know why they are killing these musicians? I would presume that it is an ego thing, i.e., this Rooster hombre was linked to one cartel and the other did him in. In any event, no Mexican vacations for me and family for a long, long time...

The Little Rooster Is No More
Though the dawn may come,
The night’s silence shall not be broken.
Confusion and indecision reign amongst those waiting
For reveille, yet unspoken.
Who shall now remind us
That the darkness is now behind us,
And it is time to begin our daily chores?
Who calls attention to the light
Dawning on the distant shore?
Now that The Little Rooster is no more.
To: NormsRevenge
Just who is killing all the Mexican folksingers of Mexico?

My feeling is that they just don’t want the attention and notoriety. They want everybody so scared they won’t mention names or anything at all having to do with the whole business.
