Last minute: Raphael, forced to cancel his concerts due to health problems

For years, Raphael has been a true symbol of music in Spain. His songs have become milestones that will live in the imagination of many people for a long time. Thanks to his work, he is one of the few artists who can boast of having a Uranium Disc, received in 1980 after having sold fifty million copies in his recording career. However, a small setback will temporarily stop the man from Linares.

Raphael published a statement on his Instagram profile this Wednesday morning, announcing the suspension of two concerts that he was to perform this week. The artist was scheduled to perform at the Cueva de Nerja and Roses festivals, but a medical setback will prevent him from participating. It is the third concert that the Jaén canceled in recent weeks, after not being able to participate in the Tío Pepe Festival in Jerez de la Frontera.

“Dear public, this morning I visited my ENT. After his examination, the diagnosis has concluded in an inflammation of the upper respiratory tract caused by the cold that I have been dragging for the last week. With great regret, we are forced to cancel the next two concerts of my tour," the letter announced. The performances were scheduled to take place on August 4 and 7, respectively.

“My greatest wish at this moment is to recover very soon to return to the stage. I hope to meet all of you again from the following concerts that continue on the tour. I take this opportunity to thank you for the innumerable expressions of support that I have received these days. I read you all and I carry you in my heart," the statement concluded. The answers have not been long in coming and have been filled with positive messages for the artist.

“Take care of what it is that you touch. They are things that pass health, it is a treasure and each one is worth gold. You are worth gold, oil, diamonds, you are the most valuable, so take care of yourself and soon we will see each other again. Magic, joy and so much for so much ”, read one of the answers. Endless affection and support in the form of short and long writings, demonstrating the esteem that his fans have for the singer from Linares: "Take care of yourself, genius, you are the important thing, get well."

“The important thing is always your health Raphael, we want you to be well soon, especially for you and your family. For so many years we have enjoyed your songs and presence on stage, I think we all appreciate your unconditional dedication. A big hug ”, expressed another of the replicas. "To take care of yourself to return with that energy that you put into each concert," another user told him.
