Scripps News' Meg Hilling sits down with professors and music experts to dig into the history of these songs and the future of the genre.
In May, for the first time ever, two songs from the Mexican Regional genre made their way into the Billboard Hot 100 Top Five: Grupo Frontera's collaboration with Bad Bunny, titled"Un Porciento" , and Peso Pluma's"Ella Baila Sola" .
"Corridos" themselves are a centuries-old form of storytelling with deep roots in Mexico, serving as a way to preserve history and celebrate the accomplishments of"folk heroes." And while some may not agree with the violence in these songs, Ramírez-Pimienta says it's easy to see how the songs can be a source of empowerment.
"Some music producers and some of the interpreters and composers, they are relatives of drug dealers," Acosta Morales said."Just about every performer will have different takes. On how that relationship works," Acosta Morales said.
