Overview
- During the Palacio de los Deportes concert, Molotov declared “Éramos un país bien chingón… no estamos alineados a cualquier Cuarta Transformación” before performing “Gimme Tha Power.”
- The Mexico City anniversary show drew more than 18,000 attendees and paired hits like “Frijolero,” “Voto Latino,” and “No Olvidamos” with pointed criticism of Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Morena.
- José Ramón López Beltrán said Molotov had “stopped being relevant” and asserted the public is “very happy” with the 4T, prompting a wave of supportive and critical reactions online.
- Molotov has not responded directly to López Beltrán’s post, instead thanking fans on social media for “a night of power and freedom.”
- The onstage commentary fits the band’s decades-long pattern of challenging governments of any party, with Jay de la Cueva filling in for recovering guitarist Tito Fuentes at the show.
