Reggaetoneros Anuel AA and Maluma are looking to música mexicana for inspiration. During separate appearances at Billboard Latin Music Week in Miami, the Puerto Rican and Colombian stars discussed their interest in the genre, with Anuel revealing plans for an entire album of corridos.
Anuel told Billboard that he’s working on the project alongside his long-awaited album Real Hasta La Muerte 2, which is expected in November. The rapper described the corridos album as a challenge and a tribute to Mexico, explaining that he’s spent the past year or two listening extensively to artists including Peso Pluma, Fuerza Regida, and Neton Vega.
The project will include several collaborations with Fuerza Regida frontman Jesús Ortiz Paz, while Anuel has also recorded a corrido titled “Los Leo” with Mexican newcomer Álex Torres. A release date has yet to be announced.
Meanwhile, Maluma expressed his own desire to explore música mexicana further during his Billboard conversation, pointing to his successful collaboration with Carín León on “Según Quién.” Unlike Anuel, however, the Colombian singer did not announce a dedicated Mexican music project.
Maluma has recently been busy with collaborations outside the genre, reuniting with Shakira on the merengue-inspired “AGUA” and appearing on the 20th-anniversary edition of Beyoncé’s B’Day.
As for Anuel AA, he’s gearing up for a string of live dates across Latin America and the US through December, including stops in Colombia, Argentina, Chile, and Mexico.
