“Don’t think that I’m talking to the neighbor next door because I’m talking to you”, says a line from the song “Gente que no”, by All your deadpart of their first album in 1988. That song, restored 36 years later by La Delio Valdez is the soundtrack to a new chapter of dialectical comparisons between some artists e the administration of Javier Milei and his “chainsaw” reach zero deficit.
In Córdoba, at Cosquín Rock, the rapper Dillom and Lali Espósito fired heavy ammunition against the Government.
This Monday, during one of the concerts as part of the National Confluence FestivalDelio Valdez restored one of the anthems of Argentine punk and he targeted the libertarian government and his cuts, in particular in culture.
“Because there are people who count on you and others who don’t. There are people who use chainsaws and people who don’t“, was heard on the soil of Mendoza, in front of a crowd that danced to the rhythm of the group to which the Colombian Ivonne Guzmán He provides the vocals, although not in that passage. The song continued just as the original version did, stretching out the phrase “people who noooo, people who noooo” over and over again.
But the change has caught on with the public public holidaythe one to whom libertarians tell artists’ accounts.
The fact is that in recent days the Casa Rosada had criticized the financing of festivals such as Cosquín Rock, an alleged dilemma to which the head of state added in X by retweeting those who financially support these events. “Tsunami de chanes,” writes Milei, recently arrived from Israel and Italy, where he has begun to rebuild ties with the Vatican.
José Palazzo, producer of the Córdoba festival, responded: “Dear Mr President, 24 years ago private entrepreneurs, with tickets and brands private and personal efforts we do. It is also made in Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile, Mexico, the United States and Spain. Here the artists are free, don’t worry.” This is not the case for national holidays.
Delio also played at Cosquín Rock. But her message was waiting for Mendoza. Then we move on to the dialectical comparison, Ivonne Guzmanvoice of the orchestra, expressed his position on the matter after the show in which his band’s position left no room for greyness.
This was assured by the singer who emerged in the reality TV show who formed the Bandana group culture is not you have to think of it “as if it were”. just entertainment“.
“We must not see culture only from the entertainment side. Expression itself has value, as does all the work it generates. It is important to support festival spaces“, said Ivonne in dialogue with the Télam agency.
It wasn’t the only voice of La Delio Valdéz. “It can not be done reduce culture to a commercial fact who can buy the ticket or not”, concluded Damián Chavarría, the orchestra’s trombonist, in the same sense.
From the rapper who targeted Caputo to Lali’s “anti-country”.
Days earlier, right in Cosquín, the singer Dillom had created a cover of The Hands of Philippi another protest band, and on the lyrics of Señor Cobranza – a hit also recorded and popularized by Bersuit Vergarabat – they altered a verse to leave a controversial message: “I move here, I move there, They have to kill Caputo in the square”.
Dylan León Masa was reported for threatening the Minister of Economy.
Lali Espósito, on the same stage, called the Thousands of followers of the “anti-country” saying before starting his presentation: “This is a very special exhibition for me because not only am I fulfilling a dream as an artist of being at such an event. Everything that happens to the artist is a collective matter and does not depend only on the artist, but exclusively on the public. It’s not demagogy. “I want to celebrate it today,” she began.
“I thought of so many things to say. Imagine the context. The most important thing, at least for me, is that this party that we Argentines are, this union that generates art, music, culture, no one will ever take it away from us”, he underlined.
Then he completed: “This song is for the liars, the stupid, the bad people, those who don’t value, the anti-patriarchs… Everyone.”
That same night Lali sang “that if I smoke, that if I live, that’s if I drink, that’s if I live off the state”. There will be more encores in this performance of the music conservatory and political chicanes.
