Edén Muñoz, Fuerza Regida, “Money Edition” (Sony Music Entertainment México)



Edén Muñoz and Fuerza Regida electrify in their joint single, “Money Edition,” a corrido that encapsulates the essence of triumph and the realization of the Mexican American dream. A bold declaration of success, the song blends Muñoz’s melodic prowess with JOP’s dynamic energy to create an exhilarating track over vibrant guitars and soaring trumpets. Lyrics like “Perdón, amá, si le fallé / Ando persiguiendo el sueño” showcase a journey of perseverance and the relentless pursuit of wealth, framed by a cultural narrative that champions the fearless chase of one’s dreams against all odds. — ISABELA RAYGOZA

Young Miko, “Curita” (The Wave Music Group)

Trending on Billboard



Steering away from her saucy trap sound, Young Miko delivers a mid-tempo reggaetón groove backed by an infectious piano melody in “Curita.” Meaning “bandage” in English, the Puerto Rican artist sings about curing the girl she likes over the Mauro and Jota Rosa-produced track: “I know you just broke up/and that’s why I came when you called/today I’ll make sure you forget him.” Miko premiered “curita” at the 2024 Billboard Women in Music event on Thursday (March 7), where she received the Impact Award. The melodic single is part of her forthcoming debut studio album, att. JESSICA ROIZ

Thalia & Ángela Aguilar, “Troca” (Sony Music Latin)



Thalia has teamed up with Ángela Aguilar for a fun and playful collaboration called “Troca,” which is slang for “truck.” The song features a blend of acoustic guitars and both the pop star and Regional Mexican singer’s high, sweet, dreamy vocals. Marking the third single off of Thalia’s A Mucha Honra album, the lyrics encourage women to break free from traditional norms and express their sensuality subtly and innocently. “Lend me your lips for just a moment/ And if you don’t like them, my love, I’ll return them to you,” they sing in the chorus. — INGRID FAJARDO

Alex Ubago, “Si Es Por Los Dos” (Warner Music Spain)



Spanish singer-songwriter Alex Ubago remains faithful to his essence with his latest single “Si Es Por Los Dos” (“If it’s for both of us”). With the romantic pop ballad and his signature voice, Ubago declares that he will not hold back on all the efforts he can make to win back the person he loves. “If it’s for both of us, I surrender to luck/ I apologize for not being the strongest/ I’m dying to see you again in my life/ When you’re not there, the fall hurts more” he sings in the heartfelt chorus. Additionally, to commemorate two decades of musical career, the Spanish artist will take his 20 Years Tour to the United States in the month of April, visiting cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Miami, and Houston. — LUISA CALLE

Ivonne Galaz, Tania Dominguez, Estilo Sin Limite, NXNNI & Designó Celestial, “Fumar Beber” (Rancho Humilde)

Nothing screams “girl power” on this International Women’s Day quite like this epic team-up from emerging regional Mexican acts. In a genre that continues to be dominated by male artists, “Fumar Beber” is a breath of fresh air with women taking the lead on an electro-corrido — one of the trends fueling música mexicana’s global takeover. The track starts off with prickly guitar notes that lead into a head-bobbing, club-ready beat, which powers the entirety of the song. “Smoking, drinking, don’t call me anymore I don’t want to see you/ Yes, you’re my ex but you’ve fallen and I won’t pick you up,” the artists — rising corrido and/or sierreño acts — sing defiantly. — GRISELDA FLORES
