Mexican Music | Upbeat Latin Tunes Are Here! (1–10)
Mi Peor ErrorAlejandra Guzmán
Alejandra Guzmán is a Mexican singer whose husky voice leaves a lasting impression.
With her low, husky tone, she’s such a distinctive artist that in some phrases she can even sound like a male vocalist.
If we were to sum up her appeal in a single phrase, it would be “simple is best.” Her natural vocal quality shines, so she avoids unnecessary embellishments—that’s part of her charm.
In her classic song “Mi Peor Error,” she delivers a straightforward, unadorned performance.
ERRORE.N.V.E.S
When people think of Mexican music, many probably imagine typical Latin music.
While there are indeed many works with that kind of sound, Mexico’s proximity to the United States has led to a wide range of musical styles.
Black music has also developed significantly, and among them, this track “ERROR” stands out for its particularly stylish vibe.
The production leans toward trap music, and the vocals—infused with elements of R&B and hip-hop—leave a strong impression.
Me Dedique A PerderteAlejandro Fernández
Alejandro Fernández, a singer-songwriter who, like his father Vicente Fernández, enjoys immense popularity in Mexico’s pop music scene.
He has a dashing vocal timbre and a knack for conveying a wistful, melancholic feel.
Above all, his greatest charm is his mastery of ballads.
The atmosphere he creates with his expressive power is outstanding.
You can feel his ballad prowess—one of his key strengths—in “Me Dedique A Perderte,” so be sure to check it out.

Amor del BuenoReyli Barba
Reily Barba is a Mexican singer-songwriter who is also active as a composer.
He works on a global scale and has provided songs to major stars such as Alejandro Fernández, who enjoys immense popularity in the Spanish-speaking world, and Beyoncé, the American singer who performs worldwide.
One of Reily Barba’s masterpieces is “Amor del Bueno.” It’s crafted as an orthodox Latin pop track, and its catchy melody resonates deeply.
Cuando Volvamos al MarFer Casillas
If you like stylish music, I recommend “Cuando Volvamos al Mar.” The singer is a woman named Fer Casillas.
While her roots are in R&B, many of her works are groovy, and her musical style leans more toward neo-soul.
This track also showcases that neo-soul side of her.
It’s a gem where a simple, groovy track matches perfectly with her languid, improvisational vocal runs.
ObsesionFrankie J
Frankie J is a Mexico-born male singer-songwriter active out of the United States.
Although he is based in the U.S., he has an extensive catalog of Spanish-language works and enjoys overwhelming popularity throughout the Spanish-speaking world, including Mexico and Spain.
One of his signature songs is Obsesion.
It’s a quintessential R&B track crafted with plenty of the “fake” vocal embellishments that were trendy in the 2000s, resulting in a stylish, cohesive vibe throughout.
DisfrutoCarla Morrison
Carla Morrison is one of the most internationally successful Mexican artists.
She has won Latin Grammy Awards and been nominated for the Grammys, making her one of the most globally popular Mexican artists.
Her greatest appeal lies in her expressiveness—her delicate, ephemeral voice resonates deeply with listeners.
Disfruto is one of her signature songs, crafted with a dark, sorrowful tone reminiscent of Billie Eilish.
