Austin Santos, better known as Arcángel, became a trend on social networks after it became known that he was intervened by the Peruvian National Police (PNP) before appearing at the San Marcos Stadium.

The urban music icon was heading towards the ‘Reggaetón Lima Festival’, but the police officers stopped him for a ‘verification’.

“There is no respect”, “Excuse us, Archangel”, “These things only happen in Peru”, “How can they not know it!”, “Well that they know it and do it”, said the netizens.

So far, the artist has not referred to this incident, but it is known that he managed to appear at the concert, where he sang his greatest hits such as “La jumpa”, “La ocasión” and “Me acostumbré”.

Who is Archangel?

Arcángel was born in New York in 1985, because his Dominican parents immigrated to the United States to seek a better life. However, they later moved to Puerto Rico, where they stayed to raise his son.

Carmen Rosas, her mother, had a merengue group called ‘Las Chicas del Can’, which were very popular in the eighties. In this way, Austin Santos was very close to music.
