Two contemporary Latin rap heavyweights, Mexico’s Gera MX and Colombia’s Nanpa Básico, are joining forces to tour the U.S. Produced by Live Nation, T6H and MATS, the 11-city Que Chimba La Raza Tour kicks off on Thursday, August 31st at The Wiltern in Los Angeles making stops across the country in Dallas, New York, Miami and more before wrapping up in Chicago at Radius Chicago on Sunday, November 12th.
Gera MX is a chart-topping Mexican rapper and songwriter known for his captivating storytelling and introspective lyrics. His unique blend of rap and other, far-ranging influences—coupled with his distinctive vocal delivery—has resonated with a wide audience, solidifying his status as a prominent figure in the international hip-hop scene. Gera MX has achieved remarkable success with several high-charting singles, including “Botella Tras Botella” and “Se Me Olvidó”. His music has also garnered impressive streaming numbers.
Known as a fearless artist, Nanpa Básico is the standard-bearer of modern Colombian rap by bringing raw and uncensored energy to the modern music scene. His street-conscious lyrics are delivered with nods to hip-hop, reggae, and regional Mexican, bringing vulnerability to social criticisms and romance to hardcore rap. Last year, Nanpa Básico released HECHO M13RD4, an homage to feeling broken inside, a melancholic and reflective state of mind about heartbreak while also celebrating the high of falling in love. HECHO M13RD4 is considered one of the exciting albums of 2022.
Both artists recently collaborated in the song “Prohibida” which garnered more than 1.4 million views on YouTube in less than a week.
