Los Esquivel, a trailblazing duo from Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico, are redefining the sound of regional Mexican music by blending the traditional style of corridos tumbados with elements of Mexican trap. The duo, consisting of brothers Sebastián and Eugenio Esquivel, initially rose to fame as part of the group Los Alucines before creating their own unique identity as Los Esquivel. Their innovative sound and energy have made them prominent figures in the Gen Z-driven Latin music scene.
The Esquivel brothers first garnered attention on TikTok, where their “alucin” content went viral. Transitioning from social media fame to music, they quickly made their mark with tracks like “Bélico y Cholo,” “Prendo Un Gallo,” and “RZR Rojo.” These songs helped solidify their reputation and set the stage for their 2022 collaboration with Marca Registrada on “Alucin.” The track was a game-changer, reaching the Top 100 Global chart on Spotify and earning double platinum certifications in both the U.S. and Mexico.
As their popularity grew, so did their collaborations. One of their biggest achievements came with the release of “Exceso,” a song featuring Colombian artist Blessd. This track showcased their versatility and further expanded their influence within the Latin music industry.
With their bold fusion of genres and unwavering drive, Los Esquivel have carved out a space for themselves in the competitive world of regional Mexican music. Their genre-blending approach, coupled with a growing fan base, has made them key players in the contemporary Latin music landscape.
