The show was part of the final leg of his '+Pretty +Dirty World Tour,' which will wrap up on August 16.'With all due respect, how old are they? A year old? Less? A year.

Next time, protect their ears or something. For real. It's heavy. It's your responsibility. You're waving them around like they're a toy. That baby doesn't want to be there, for real. I'm telling you with all love and respect, now that I'm a father, I would never bring them to a concert. For the next time, be a bit more aware,' Maluma said at the concert.
