Legendary Mexican singer and icon Vicente Fernandez also known as 'Chente' is coming to Boyle Heights!
The Chente spirit will live in Boyle Heights as the LA City Council has just voted to rename a portion of Bailey Street in honor of the Ranchera music superstar.
“Today, our city council took the rare action to recognize ‘Chente’ for his cultural contributions by memorializing him at one of our city’s most cherished venues, Mariachi Plaza,” Councilman Kevin de León said in a statement.
Chente who passed away in December of 2021 had many lifelong fans in Los Angeles and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
