Mexican DJs Call for Temporary Ban on Natanael Cano’s Music After Onstage Assault

The DJs’ collective threatened to pull his tracks from club and festival lineups until he issues a public apology.

Overview

  • Consejo Mexicano de DJs A.C. issued an official communiqué condemning Cano’s physical attack on his DJ at Baja Beach Fest and urged peers to suspend his music until he apologizes and repairs the damaged laptop.
  • Viral videos show Cano, frustrated by persistent audio glitches, seizing and smashing his DJ’s laptop onstage during the festival’s closing set, prompting boos and early departures.
  • Attendees reported that missing corridos tumbados and sound failures in the first 40 minutes fueled audience frustration before the altercation unfolded.
  • Influencers and industry figures publicly criticized Cano’s conduct, and no statements have been released by the artist, his representatives or festival organizers.
  • If widely adopted, the temporary ban could limit Cano’s presence at events and affect his exposure on club and festival lineups nationwide.
