What are Gallery Sessions and why didn’t anyone recognize Peso Plum?

The publication El Universal de Méxica takes a look at the concert that Peso Pluma held on the streets of Spain. As a reference, the media took the video posted by the user @elguerobelikin on the TikTok platform.

In the clip, which lasts only a few seconds, the performer of the songs “She Baila Sola” and “Rubicon” can be seen with a microphone in his hand behind a glass as he allegedly prepares to sing some of his notes. A person who does not seem to recognize him is walking in front of the artist.

“Peso Pluma sings on public roads in Madrid, Spain,” reads the video posted on November 21, although the caption reads “Trueno did it first, but Peso does it twice as well.”
