Christian Nodal & Los Plebes del Rancho de Ariel Camacho, "2 Veces" (Universal Music México)
Christian Nodal and Los Plebes del Rancho join forces for "2 Veces," a heartbreak track that fuses Nodal's identifiable mariacheño sonority with Los Plebes' sierreño style. Penned by Nodal, Edgar Barrera and Horacio Palencia, the melancholic track marks the first-ever collab between the chart-topping regional Mexican artist and Los Plebes del Rancho. "2 Veces" finds Nodal and Los Plebes trading verses about realizing it's time to let go and step away from a toxic relationship. "It's clear that you don't deserve my love," Los Plebes sing. Nodal adds: "It's better that you leave. Because you're not supposed to hurt someone that loves you."

Natanael Cano: Interview on Success, Corridos & the Future

As a Valentine’s Day gift to fans, Mexican singer-songwriter Natanael Cano released his new EP
Corazón Tumbado on February 14th. The leading voice in the corridos tumbados movement continues to wear his young heart on his sleeve across the 5 tracks. With the genre gaining more of a pulse in the Latin music this past year, Cano is keeping its heartbeat alive with a steady stream of music, including his recent hit “Amor Tumbado.”
Cano hails from the city of Hermosillo in Senora, Mexico. While learning to play guitar from YouTube videos at age 10, he was also growing up on the music of the ill-fated Ariel Camacho, who was another fresh face that was redefining regional Mexican music. After writing some music of his own, Cano’s self-released “El De Los Lentes Gucci” in 2018 put eyes and ears onto his unique brand of corridos tumbados.
