On June 28, El Chacal was forced to leave the stage during a performance in Barcelona. Despite facing heavy criticism, especially from the audience who came to see him live, the artist was actually in a life-threatening situation.
In an interview with “Destino Tolk,” the reggaeton singer detailed what happened that day, explaining that he had to leave the performance due to severe costochondritis in his chest. According to the singer, his entire chest was inflamed, his chest began to tighten, and he started having difficulty breathing.
There was a moment on stage while standing in front of the DJ when his vision became very blurry, and he started feeling dizzy: “I said, I'm going to die here because I couldn't breathe, and I felt very bad.”
Almost unable to speak, he told his team, “Call the rescue because I'm going, and the only thing that came to mind was my children.”
“None of this will justify what happened because, in the end, everyone can say what they want and with their reasons. I really went there to work; I shouldn't have left, but I couldn't take it anymore,” El Chacal assured.
The reggaeton artist clarified that it wasn't entirely his concert, as it was a festival where he was scheduled to sing for a set time, and other artists were also performing. When he left the stage, he still had 20 minutes left in his performance.
“I feel super sorry,” the artist admitted and added that he even wants to do a free concert to make up for the debt to the Barcelona audience who came to see him.
