Peso Pluma’s four guests during Weekend One of Coachella were already impressive, but the Mexican star stepped it up even more on Weekend Two, bringing out five guests Friday night.
The Mexican music star — who dedicated his set both weekends to the originators of corridos — welcomed surprise guests from Anitta, Eslabón Armado, Chencho Corleone, Ryan Castro, and Jasiel Nuñez.
After Peso opened his set with standouts “Rubicon,” Nuñez joined him for a rendition of their Génesis collaboration, “Rosa Pastel.”

HarbourView Equity Partners has made an investment in Mucho Mas Media, the Los Angeles-based content company behind the new golf-themed movie “The Long Game.”
The deal calls for HarbourView Equity to executive produce films with Mucho Mas co-CEOs Javier Chapa and Vincent Cordero. With HarbourView’s investment, Mucho Mas intends to expand the scope of its activity in film and TV. HarbourView CEO Sherrese Clarke Soares is on board as an executive producer of “The Long Game,” an adaptation of the Humberto Garcia novel “Mustang Miracle.” The film tells the true story of a group of Mexican American caddies who created their own golf course in the South Texas brush in 1955 and two years later won the Texas State High School Golf Championship.
Mucho Mas describes itself as “an inclusive LatinX multimedia platform cultivating talent and producing content for global audiences.” One reason the deal appealed to HarbourView is that...

Coachella 2024 kicked off Friday, and festival season is officially upon us once again.
With over 100,000 festival goers in the desert for this weekend’s debut, Day One was a stacked opening, with Lana Del Rey bringing out Billie Eilish for a duet, Shakira shocking the crowd and announcing a world tour during Bizarrap’s set, and Peso Pluma putting corridos on the world stage.
If Euphoria core influenced Coachella’s fashion in years past, 2024 has now gone cosmic cowboy as the silver boots and cowboy hats took over the festival grounds.

Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma have scaled major heights with their hit collaboration “Ella Baila Sola.” Spotify crowned the track as the song of the summer, and it quickly jumped to number one on the platform’s global charts. On Thursday at the Latin Grammys in Spain, eight months after the song’s release, Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma teamed up for their first televised performance of the track.

Last year at the Grammys, Bad Bunny’s LP Un Verano Sin Ti made history as the first Spanish-language project nominated for Album of the Year, and his song “Moscow Mule” got a nod under Best Pop Solo Performance. These all seemed to be signs that the Recording Academy was broadening its view of Latin music and art and considering it for major categories, rather than siloing it to genre-specific categories.
But sadly, it’s back to bad habits this year. No Latin artists appear in the Big Four, despite...

The 66th Grammy nominations are just days away, and one of the most exciting races is Best New Artist, a category that can make or break a career. Usually an amalgamation of some of the biggest genres around, the award typically has a great mix of huge breakouts and hidden gems. But among so many worthy debutantes, which eight will make up the class of 2024?
The biggest lock for a nomination this year is Ice Spice. The Bronx rapper has made waves with her infectious style and collaborations with big artists like Nicki Minaj, PinkPantheress, Lil Tjay, and Taylor Swift. Such major collaborations are already a big deal, but Ice has also scored hits on her own, like “In Ha Mood” and “Deli.” Following her victory at the 2023 VMAs for Best New Artist, Ice might continue her hot streak with a Grammy victory, especially with possible support from both rap and pop voters.

Lately, Peso Pluma’s raspy twang seems to be everywhere. It’s there, creaking with grit and originality, on his Eslabón Armado hit “Ella Baila Sola,” which became the first regional Mexican song to reach the Top 10 on Billboard’s Hot 100. (Fans have been so enamored by the way he croaks out “Bella!” in his opening verse that they’ve started a viral TikTok challenge, imitating the singer.) His distinct delivery on “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 55,” his collaboration with famed Argentine producer Bizarrap, drove the track to Number One on Spotify’s Global charts.

When the Latin Grammys announced its nominees last week, the corridos tumbados of Rancho Humilde’s top acts were notably missing from its list. Not a single project from the likes of Fuerza Régida, Natanael Cano, or Junior H made the cut.
On Monday, Jimmy Humilde — the head of Rancho Humilde and an early champion for the urban-leaning música Mexicana subgenre — lashed out against the Latin Recording Academy for snubbing his label’s acts, describing the leaders of the Academy as out of touch with the culture and music.

Peso Pluma has canceled his upcoming concert in Tijuana after facing threats from a notable Mexican drug cartel, Variety reports.
The Jalisco New Generation Cartel, considered by the Mexican government to be the second most powerful drug cartel in the world, warned Pluma not to perform in Tijuana earlier this month with banners placed across the city. “This goes to Peso Pluma, refrain from presenting yourself on October 14, because it will be your last show due to your disrespect and loose tongue, you show up and we are going to (break you),” one banner said (per The Arizona Republic). Police arrested a 43-year-old man who was in possession of one of the banners.

The nominations for the 2023 Latin Grammys are here — and though the award show is undergoing big changes by switching up its venue and heading to Spain this November, the contenders in each category are pretty familiar to the Latin Recording Academy.

Seemingly overnight, Guadalajara-born singer Yng Lvcas went from being a virtually unknown reggaetón artist to reaching No. 2 on the Billboard Global 200 thanks to his earworm “La Bebé” and its remix featuring Peso Pluma. Today, as his song spends its 11th week on the chart, Lvcas is still on cloud nine. “When you see me with three or four more songs playing as much as ‘La Bebe,’ I’m not sure I’ll have much time to be interviewed,” Yng Lvcas jokes on a Zoom call from his home in Querétaro.
