JUDELINE CANCELA IN FIB for his link with KKR

Judeline is the last to join the list of unhappy artists with the linking of some Spanish festivals with the Proisraelí Kkr Investment Fund. In this way, he has announced that he will not act in the next edition of the FIB, which will be held during the next 17, July 18 and 19.

The singer has announced it through her Instagram stories: “I have decided not to participate this year at the FIB Festival given its link with the KKR Fund.” “I know that many of the things we do have implications that do not align with our convictions and that most of what we consume has dire consequences for a part of the population or the planet even if we are not always aware,” continues Judeline.

However, he clarifies that “in this case the relationship is direct and obvious.” Before finishing explaining that his team also supports this decision, he sends a message about what is happening in Gaza: “I position myself against the genocide and favor of the rights of Palestine, today and always,” he concludes.

The news about the linking of some Spanish festivals with Israel exploded last May, after the KKR capital fund acquired Supersruct, the second largest promoter in the world. The Sónar festival took most of the criticism at that time, but others such as the Sound Arenal, Brava or Viña Rock are in the same situation. The elite also canceled their performance at the FIB when the news becomes public.
