Guns,drugs, and dead people

Reply to this thread.

Valentin Elizalde was an up and coming singer who wrote and sang the wrong song. the video portrays pictures of the members of the "ZETAS" a mexican gang composed of mostly military deserters, it shows an execution and the picture of the very last guy is "El Chapo" Guzman, Cartel leader for the Northern states of Mexico. This song is Honoring "El Chapo" which coincidently is the enemy of "Los Zetas" who happen to control the border states along the Rio Grande Valley from Brownsville, Texas to Laredo, Texas. The singer was killed in Reynosa Which borders Mcallen, Texas after a concert there in which he happened to sing this song in his enemies territory.

(11-26) 04:00 PST Mexico City -- A popular singer, his manager and driver were gunned down in an ambush after a concert in the border city of Reynosa in an apparent gangland hit Saturday as unabated drug-related violence continued across Mexico.

The singer, 27-year-old Valentin Elizalde, was killed about 20 minutes after performing at a local fair. Elizalde was a mainstay of the accordion-based norteņo music variously known as Banda or grupero and also was known by the nickname "the Golden Rooster."

According to media reports, two vehicles chased Elizalde's black Suburban as he left the concert and opened fire with automatic weapons as dozens of witnesses looked on.

As many as 70 bullet cartridges were found scattered on the street around Elizalde's car. According to media reports, Elizalde was hit as many as eight times.

Elizalde often toured the United States and recorded several albums for Universal Music. Among his biggest hits were songs including "Vete Ya," "Ebrio de Amor" and "Soy Asi."

This month, Elizalde received the "Soloist of the Year" prize at Los Premios de la Radio awards for regional Mexican music held at the Gibson Amphitheater in Hollywood. He was depicted in a mural in Pico Rivera, a Southern California hotbed of norteņo music, last December.

He also wrote lyrics honoring one of Mexico's most notorious drug lords, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, leader of the Sinaloa Cartel. Last year, he sang one of his narcocorridos, ballads honoring the exploits of drug dealers, to a crowd of more than 3,000 convicts at the Puente Grande prison in the central state of Jalisco.

Guzman escaped from a neighboring prison in 2001 and remains at large.

More than 2,000 people have been killed in the war between competing cartels and the police over Mexico's lucrative trade in illicit drugs, according to media reports.

On Saturday, the toll included a federal prosecutor gunned down in the northern city of Monterrey, and a police chief and city councilman in Santa Catarina, a Monterrey suburb.

Baltazar Gomez Trejo of Santa Catarina was the sixth police chief killed in the state of Nuevo Leon this year. He had taken office 23 days earlier.
