Billboard cover star Luis R Conriquez rapidly rose to fame with his corrido “El Buho.” The talented singer opened up a new style of corridos by creating “corridos bélicos.” He shares how he rapidly rose to stardom, working with many of his friends/artists on ‘Corridos Bélicos, Vol. IV,’ including Peso Pluma, Gerardo Ortiz, Ryan Castro and more!

Luis R Conriquez:

Luis R Conriquez, done. The Luis from two years ago is still the same as now because since I started in this, I’ve always been making music. I work hard, I mean, right now we are working, you know? After this, I can go record a video. Then go home and rest. Or I might want to do some vocals. I’m always looking for work. I always want to make music. I always want to try to have a lot of material, I want to create music so that people can listen to it. So I feel that I am still the same Luis R that I was two years ago. Maybe with more experience, and not making the same mistakes, or maybe I’ve just gotten over them. But it is different. I think that when… when I recorded the songs I had at that time, I felt that it was something new, that it was different from everything that was playing. And the day that I recorded it, I felt happy with it. I recorded a video and a new song after I joined Kartel Music, and I told Freddy and Leo, “You know what? I think this song will be a hit.” And it was. That song made me famous. It was called “El Buho.” It’s called “El Buho” and even now, I sang it yesterday, I released it four years ago and it still feels like a new song.

Keep watching for more!
