Multi-platinum música mexicana phenomenon, Gabito Ballesteros, joins forces with corridos tumbados kingpin and visionary Natanael Cano for the striking release of “El Boss.”
“El Boss” is an artistic testimony to Cano’s tireless efforts of expanding Mexican music to new horizons, along with Ballesteros’ one-of-a-kind approach to the genre. Experimenting with the depths of their vocalization, the Mexican superstars layer dreamy harmonies over an intricate string arrangement and whimsical trumpet blares.
In the Luxon Films-directed video for “El Boss,” Ballesteros and Cano navigate through dark twists and turns in this tale of power and fame – but at a cost. After signing a ‘deal with the devil,’ the artists are met with an alluringly mysterious red-robed woman who leads them into a brainwashing ritual. The transaction continues with Gabito and Natanael singing through their verses in a glass enclosure while the world watches, and haunting cuts of the artists roaming in an endless void flash across the screen.
