I'll give you some examples then --- that very popular song about Teresa Mendoza -- "una mujer muy valiente", "Teresa la Mexicana" --- a fictional woman drug smuggler praised in this very popular song for her valor and bravery -- dealing drugs in the USA and all over Europe. Jefe de los Jefes --- Boss of the Bosses --- but in this song it's about the top drug kingpin --- very proud of the power he wields over the government and everyone else. Paca de a Kilo --- all about drug smuggling --- "Los Pinos me dan sombra" --- the Mexican White House provides me cover. The most popular music from Mexico are the narco-corridas which promote the drug trafficking business --- make them into heros. El Rey de los Cielos is about the famous Amado Carrillo Fuentes ---former leader of the very violent Juarez Cartel.
