Hermanos Gutiérrez just started their own label Discos Gutiérrez

Hermanos Gutiérrez just launched their own label called Discos Gutiérrez and are bringing their whole early catalog under it.

Feels like part of a bigger trend right now where artists are building their own ecosystems instead of relying on traditional labels.

What do y’all think? Is this a good move?

Can latin Americans create a whole new music genre by fusing reggaeton, Dembow and bachata?? Cause I’d wish we have something similar to 90s R&B. Cause 90s R&B is literally hiphop, pop, and new jack swing fused together.

I’m being so serious, just slow down the reggaeton beat and then fuse dembow and bachata it if not just bachata. Could it work? Or if not just slow down the reggaeton beat and figure something out??

Latin song - sounds classic band song

I tried every app and didn't find this spanish/latin song.

I thought this is a classic one but no one knows it but me and my partner.

Wish this article wasn't paywalled but it's refreshing to see these two hyping each other up so much. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-latin/j-balvin-ryan-castro-omerta-cover-story-1235553494/

Some highlights from the article about their new collab album, Omertá:

They frame Omertà less as a literal mafia reference and more as a symbol of loyalty, respect, and unspoken bonds, especially tied to their roots in Medellín and the idea of “the people around you first.”

Ryan talks about looking up to J Balvin as a mentor

They mention how Balvin represents a bridge between generations in Latin music, and how this new album reflects that dynamic, almost like a passing of the torch.

They mention there being a lot more visual storytelling with this new album so hopefully we will be getting a lot of videos along with the songs.

And they discuss how there is a deeper meaning behind the title and imagery that we were speculating about a few months ago.

A big take away is also how they are continuing to push Latin music forward on a global scale and being part of a movement alongside artists like Karol G and Bad Bunny, and how they are creating projects that feel both true to their Colombian roots while also being globally relevant and influential.

Honestly it sounds like we might be getting a visual album/cinematic experience along with omertá and I'm really looking forward to it.

Thoughts?
