Luis Cortés, Angelina Victoria, Maeso & More Emerging Latin Artists on Our Radar
Every month, Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors spotlight a group of rising artists whose music we love. Think 'diamantes en bruto,' or 'diamonds in the rough.' These are newcomers who have yet to impact the mainstream — but whose music excites us, and who we believe our readers should make a point to discover. Our latest edition of On the Radar Latin includes a wave of emerging artists, who we discovered either by networking, or coming across their music at a showcase, or elsewhere. See our recommendations this month below: More from Billboard El Fantasma Claims Eighth No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay Chart With 'Ya Me Vale Madre' Khalil Fong and Tanya Chua Named Best Male and Female Singers at the 3rd Wave Music Awards Doechii & Tyler, the Creator Preview Pharrell-Produced 'Get Right' Collab During Louis Vuitton Paris Show Artist: Angelina Victoria Country: U.S. Why They Should Be on Your Radar: I wasn't able to catch Angelina Victoria at the Chicago White Sox Mexican heritage night earlier this month, which was a bummer given that she's one of a handful of women who are making waves in regional Mexican music today. The 22-year-old Chicago-born artist already boasts of a wide-ranging collection of singles that showcase her versatility, including cumbias, norteño, corridos tumbados to pop and opera. But it's in música mexicana where she really shines, allowing her polished vocals to take centerstage as she sings songs of love and heartbreak. Earlier this year, she also performed at SXSW, setting her up for a promising 2025. She's also set to drop her debut album sometime this year. — GRISELDA FLORES Song For Your Playlist: 'Mejor Nada' Artist: Cielo Torres Country: Peru Why They Should Be On Your Radar: She might be petite in size, but Cielo Torres carries potent vocals that I discovered firsthand when I saw her perform live at the Heat Latin Music Awards music festival earlier this year in Medellín. Hailing from Tacna, a city in southern Peru, Torres kicked off her solo music career in 2018 with her debut single 'Si Me Tenías' and hit No. 1 in the country with her 2020 'Nunca Es Suficiente.' Prior, she was the lead vocalist of cumbia group Agua Bella and formed part of local telenovelas. In the past seven years, she's established herself one of the leading voices of salsa music in her country and is currently making the rounds with her five-track EP Confidencial—fully charged with tropical finesse and empowering lyrics.— JESSICA ROIZ Song For Your Playlist: 'Te Equivocas' Artist: Luis Córtes Country: Spain Why They Should Be On Your Radar: If it weren't for an invite to his first showcase in Miami this month, I would have never had the pleasure of discovering the magical artist that is Luis Cortés. In 2019, the artist from Valencia, Spain launched his debut single 'Ojalá,' which put at the forefront his raspy yet dulcet and passionate vocals. Morevoer, it introduced his captivating music project that fuses traditional flamenco with R&B, neo-soul, reggaetón, and tropical music, as best heard in his 2021 breakout single 'Mala Vida.' This year, Cortés—who easily became one of my favorite new artists—released two albums: his live Gira Dolores (En Directo) and studio set Corazón Negro. The latter of the two includes his romantic and melancholic collaboration with Camilo on 'Desamarte.' — J.R. Song For Your Playlist: 'Desamarte' with Camilo Artist: MAESO Country: Puerto Rico Why they should be on your radar: Alternating between merengue, reggaetón, EDM, and bachata, emerging artist MAESO demonstrated in 2024 what he's capable of in his seasonal EP series Primavera and Verano, which included collaborations with Guaynaa, OG Flamez, and La Tribu Royale. This Friday (June 27), he is back with another EP, the six-track Mucho Gusto, which includes the previously released merengue 'Te encontré' with Venezuelan star Nacho and the bachata 'La Botella,' his latest single. Maeso is a fresh voice that gives tropical music a contemporary touch. — SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS Song for your playlist: 'La Botella' Artist: The Rumba Madre Country: Spain Why You Should Be On Your Radar: Think Gogol Bordello or Manu Chao, but with flamenco flair and the fiery energy of Spanish punk rebellion. The Rumba Madre blends sharp political critiques with genre-defying sounds that confront today's pressing issues. From border discrimination to intergenerational trauma, their music speaks truth to power in ways that feel urgent. Take 'La Rumba del Coco,' a cutting critique of immigration policies, where frontman David Vila Diéguez recounts a surreal incident of being accused of trespassing at the U.S.-Mexico border for simply carrying a coconut. Meanwhile, their recent single, 'Abuela,' shifts the focus to Spain's post-Francoist trauma, blending grief with vivid storytelling about two grandchildren safeguarding the ashes of their anti-Francoist grandmother. Diéguez's work extends beyond music and in academia. His forthcoming book, Spanish Punk: Screaming for Democracy in a Post-Dictatorial State (paperback out Nov. 11) — full disclaimer: I had the honor of penning its foreword — examines the radical impact of punk music in Spain during and after Franco's dictatorship. Now based in Nashville, the troupe challenges conventions and confronts history head-on, while creating a sound as unapologetic as the stories they tell. — ISABELA RAYGOZA Song For Your Playlist: 'Abuela' Best of Billboard Chart Rewind: In 1989, New Kids on the Block Were 'Hangin' Tough' at No. 1 Janet Jackson's Biggest Billboard Hot 100 Hits H.E.R. & Chris Brown 'Come Through' to No. 1 on Adult R&B Airplay Chart

'Rooted in heritage, pride, and connection, BelicoFest exists for the culture and will continue to create unforgettable experiences that honor and represent it.' Two-day GA tickets start at $259, and VIP entry begins at $358. Fans can also acquire La Toxica passes for $499, which include admission to VIP areas and access to La Bota Shoe Shine, a barbershop, private beverages, and a Spotify-hosted lounge. The fest also offers El Belicon passes, which include four complimentary drinks and more special access. Last month, Bojorquez spoke to Rolling Stone about his commitment to hosting the fest for its second year, even amid the uncertainty around artists' visas under the Trump administration. (Michelada Fest canceled its Chicago event over the issue.) 'We're very, very cautious about who we book, and not taking away from the whole experience, because our name is based on that genre and culture of Mexican music,' Bojorquez said at the time. 'It's a movement that we started, and now we have to continue. We can't let government restrictions stop us. We gotta work with what we have and give the audiences what they want.' Last year, the event was headlined by Gerardo Ortiz, Junior H, and Luis R. of Rolling Stone The 50 Greatest Eminem Songs All 274 of Taylor Swift's Songs, Ranked The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time

Carín León Brings 16-Piece Mexican Band to Tiny Desk Concert
Carín León is the latest Latin star to perform his very own Tiny Desk concert for NPR Music. The Mexican superstar went all out for his set, which included a 16-piece band that helped him bring to life 'Ese Vato No Te Queda,' 'Lado Frágil,' 'El Amor de Mi Herida' and 'Por la Suave.' León exuded Mexican pride with instruments like charchetas (alto horn), tololoche, tuba, trumpets and trombones, which give regional Mexican music that rich and nuanced sound. After opening with 'Ese Vato,' León expressed a few words. 'Thank you for having us here, que viva la música mexicana,' he said.
