In late 2014, Calibre 50 struck a deal with Sony. It not only landed the band a number one single with the title tune, but it also landed the band a number one full-length album. For that year’s Contigo album, Lopez and Augusto were replaced by Alejandro Gaxiola on tuba and Erick Garcia on drums. The band’s personnel changed in 2014 due to the band’s hectic schedule on the road and the creative pressures of composing and recording. The song “El Immigrante” from this album not only topped the radio charts, but also stayed at number one in Mexico for almost 10 weeks.
In October, Calibre 50 struck again with Corridos de Alto Calibre. Its debut single, “Aqu Estoy,” topped the Regional Mexican Music airplay charts in both Mexico and the United States, and was followed by “Ni Que Estuvieras Tan Buena,” which was also the genre’s most played song that year on radio. In February of 2013, they released La Recompensa. Calibre 50’s work ethic was both motivating and tiring. El Buen Ejemplo had four successful singles when it was released in 2012: “Mujer de Todos, Mujer de Nadie,” “Bohemio Loco,” “El Buen Ejemplo,” and “Gente Batallosa.” “Gente Batallosa,” a duet with the band Carnivale, became Mexico’s most popular single of the year and earned the band a Billboard Award for Song of the Year Vocal Collaboration. Calibre 50 laid the groundwork for their 2011 breakthrough album De Sinaloa para el Mundo, which featured the smash songs “El Tierno Se Fue” and “Te Estoy Engaando con Otra,” as they started to get airplay and attract recognition on YouTube.Ĭalibre 50 maintained a hard touring schedule while while continuing to record. Mazatlán” (a duet with Gerardo Ortiz), and “El Tierno Se Fue” were among the album’s hits. Renovar o Morir, their first full-length album, was released in 2010. They created a video of their song “The Infiernito” after performing concerts everywhere they could, from backyard parties to tiny eateries, which caught Disa’s notice and earned them a recording deal. Their boisterous stage performance is a musical extravaganza with plenty of audience involvement.
Since then, each album has charted, including three that reached the Top 200 and topped the Mexican Regional Albums list (2012’s Grandes Exitos, 2014’s Contigo, and the following year’s Historia de la Calle). Mazatlan” (a duet with Gerardo Ortiz) and “Callejero y Mujeriego” (a duet with Gerardo Ortiz) helped push their 2010 debut album, Renovar o Morir, to a good chart showing and the Lo Nuestro Award for Regional Mexican New Artist of the Year. The band began performing on the stages of small restaurants and neighborhood events in 2010, when their theme song, “El Infiernito,” gained attention. Despite the fact that many of their narcocorridos are legally prohibited from broadcast in their native country, word of mouth and streaming have helped them reach a growing following.
