"Siempre Pendientes" is a song by Mexican singers Peso Pluma and Luis R. Conriquez. It was released on August 15, 2022, through Prajin Parlay, Kartel Music, and Worms Music and was written by Peso Pluma's cousin, Roberto "Tito" Laija.[1]
After the song's release, it attained controversy. The song would possibly be part of a series of death threats sent to Peso Pluma, who praises Mexican drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán in his songs, forcing him to cancel his October 14, 2023 show in Tijuana.[2]
Lyrics
Lyrically, it is apologia for drug trafficking and organized crime. The lyrics in the song mention El Chapo or his son, Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar, using his initials "JGL" or "Don Iván" and are directed to the Sinaloa Cartel and the rivals of the Jalisco Cartel. They are further mentioned in following single "El Gavilán".[3]
Music video
A music video was originally released on the same day of release, on YouTube. It was directed by César Acosta and it stars both artists holding rifles in a desert with a large crew, receiving 2 million views in its first 24 hours. The video was removed from the video platform three days later due to outrage.[4][5]
