Karol G invited J Balvin on stage, where both performed during the last weekend Coachella. The artists performed Balvin’s 3-billion-views banger “Mi Gente.”
The show itself also turned out great. Karol G had many decorations on the stage, accompanied by dancers and a mixture of vapors and lights. The show’s lighting design generally seems to be a vital subject to Karol G.
“It’s the first time we’re going to have a huge stage with different screens, lights, and color,” the artist excitedly shared before her Bitchota tour in 2021. “The most important thing is that I’m going to share this time with the people that follow me,”
Karol G and J Balvin are very close friends. “We hope to record something together,” Karol said in 2018.
“We are like brother and sister, and I’m sure the day we collaborate, it will be very powerful. I’m sure it will be magical and record-breaking, but we are friends before anything else.” Later on, the artists recorded and released the “Location” collaboration in 2021.

J Balvin’s Music Video Controversy
Back in October, J Balvin released the “Perra” music video. It raised multiple questions and concerns.
“Balvin is walking two Black women on leashes at one point,” the reporter explained. “And Tokischa is seen in a doghouse on all fours, being fed fried chicken and cereal in a dog bowl.”
Eventually, Balvin apologized and then tried to explain himself. “I want to say sorry to whomever felt offended, especially to the Black women community,” the artist shared on IG stories. “That’s not who I am. I have always expressed tolerance, love, and inclusivity.”
Tokischa, who featured with Balvin, is also “seen in a doghouse on all fours, being fed fried chicken and cereal in a dog bowl.” She didn’t comment on the controversial matter.
