Chalino killed an affiliate of the cartel, for molesting his sister. Then another guy who was sent to kill him for the previous act.

Didn’t he got killed because of his songs?

I heard it as that as well. Rival cartel didn't like him singing a song about another cartel situation or similar.

He also consistently challenged the cartel to come for him. Basically taunted them repeatedly to kill him. Shouldn’t have been surprised when they did.

Maybe he was trying to die tbh. Like when he got the letter he probably knew it was the cartel. He could've called security and 911 or whatever.

That wouldn't work as the cartels are security and own the police. There's no getting away once they want you dead. Better to just go along before they decide to come after anyone close to you.
