Colombia received news that seems to have been taken from one of its most sentimental lyrics: Yeison Jimenez, the 'Aventurero' of popular music, has died. The accident occurred on the afternoon of Saturday, January 10, 2026, when the single-engine plane in which he was traveling crashed to the ground in the village of Romita, in the jurisdiction of Paipa, Boyaca.

But beyond the figures and expert reports, there is a mystical component that has left his fans in a state of absolute shock. Just weeks before this fateful day, Jimenez had shared in various interviews a series of premonitory experiences that today acquire a chilling significance.

"God gave me three signs": The dream that came true

In one of his last appearances in the media, specifically on the podcast 'Los hombres si lloran' and on the program 'Se dice de mi', Yeison opened his heart about a fear that haunted him: dying in a plane crash.

"I dreamed three times that we had killed ourselves and that we were in the news. God gave me three signs and I didn't understand them, I didn't get it," the artist confessed with a vulnerability that few knew.

In his stories, he detailed how in those dreams he would arrive at Medellin's Olaya Herrera airport and feel an internal resistance to board the aircraft. In two of those visions, he managed to warn the pilot, who after a check found a technical fault - such as a loose tube - that saved the situation. However, the third dream was different: the plane fell, and he saw the city from above while his life faded away.

The accident that almost took his life

Yeison's obsession with air safety was not unfounded. The singer had already survived a critical incident months earlier, while on his way to interviews in Medellin. On that occasion, he recounted how the plane never managed to climb high enough, and as he watched the mountains dangerously close in, the control panels were showing critical errors: "Bad left, bad right".

At that moment of terror, his greatest pain was thinking of his family. His son was only ten days away from being born. "I said: I didn't know the child. I didn't know him," he recalled through tears. That experience plunged him into a four-month depression that led him to seek professional help, as the trauma of being so close to death changed his perspective on life.

The tragedy in Paipa

Fate, however, ended up fulfilling the premonition on January 10. Yeison was on his way to Marinilla, Antioquia, to fulfill an artistic commitment at the Fiestas Populares de la Vaca en la Torre. According to reports from the Unified Command Post, the aircraft in which he was traveling with five other people (including part of his work team) crashed shortly after takeoff over a crop area in Paipa. There were no survivors.

An irreparable void in popular music

Yeison Jimenez was not just a singer; he was a symbol of personal improvement in Colombia. From selling avocados in the Abastos market square, he went on to fill stadiums and become a successful businessman. His death leaves an immense void in the popular genre, where figures such as Jessi Uribe have already expressed their sorrow: "You are leaving as a giant of music. See you upstairs."

While the Civil Aeronautics investigates the technical causes of the crash, the whole of Colombia remembers the artist's words about his premonitions. For many, his dreams were not simple nightmares, but a last farewell message that he himself did not finish deciphering.

Today, Yeison Jimenez's music sounds with a different kind of nostalgia. His lyrics about life, destiny and death resonate in every corner of the country, reminding us that sometimes the soul knows things that reason prefers to ignore.
