TIJUANA, Baja California — The management and record label for popular Mexican singer Peso Pluma have officially canceled his upcoming concert in Tijuana.

The announcement on Wednesday comes a week after reported death threats were allegedly made against the Latin music star. Peso Pluma was set to bring his "Doble P" tour to Estadio Caliente in Tijuana on Oct. 14 

In a post to social media, the announcement read, "Our goal is to protect the fans and team. For the safety of all those involved, we are canceling our show in Tijuana. Many thanks to all of our fans for understanding. We love you."

Multiple stops of Peso Pluma’s ‘’Doble P’’ tour have been canceled or postponed across the United States. Peso Pluma was scheduled for a Sept. 30 performance at Cal Coast Credit Union Open Air Theatre at SDSU in San Diego.

The reasons for the concert cancellations are unknown. 

Mexican star Peso Pluma has skyrocketed to fame with his hit songs "Ella Baila Sola" and "AMG". Peso Pluma frequently makes references in his lyrics to drug cartels in Mexico.
