The name says it all: ‘the kings of cumbia’. Profiled as a musical breakthrough and market phenomenon, the Tejano band Kumbia Kings, has prevailed as one of the most lively and avant-garde bands in Latin entertainment. Led by renowned writer and producer Cruz Martínez, the Texas-based bilingual hitmaking collective is a fixture on the biggest and most prestigious stages in the United States, Mexico, Central and South America. For more than two decades, its unique fusion of traditional Mexican music with hip-hop, funk, R&B and reggae, has made millions of people dance around the world, making them the most sought-after act for international music festivals.

With millions of albums sold, close to a billion YouTube views and nearly one hundred massive performances a year, the band that came to light at the end of the 90s, is a staple on the Latin pop charts. Its first unpublished hit “Sabes a chocolate”, released during the first trimester of 2004, awarded the band the power to knock down all musical borders and give Latin pop a new sound.

Its innovative ability to fusion any genre of music has led the Kings to collaborate with the biggest names in the industry, including the late maestro Juan Gabriel, with whom the band recorded the singer’s hymn “No tengo dinero” in 2003. This collaboration not only positioned the Kings at the top of the charts but allowed Juan Gabriel to reach a new generation of listeners. As a Texan group, its love and musical influence for Selena is undeniable. In 2005, the band paid tribute to the late legend with an unmatched duet of “Baila esta cumbia”. Thanks to the power of technology, the singer’s unparalleled voice came to life once more and registered a new record.

The band’s success in the Latin world with songs like “Azucar”, “Pachuco”, “Fuego”, Te quiero a ti”, “Mi dulce niña” and “Fuiste mala” has only been topped by its cross-over prevalence. Its first English-language hit titled “U Don’t Love Me”, stayed on the Billboard charts for 95 weeks, beating the biggest stars in the mainstream market. Its continued hard work has won over audiences since its
inception, but its sound continues to resonate across generations and continents.

In 2024, the band went viral on TikTok worldwide, becoming trending topic as its musical repertoire captivated the young generation of South Korea. Its songs, “Sabes a Chocolate” and “Mi Dulce niña”, were the protagonists of fun and diverse choreographies by K-Pop lovers. This new trend led to a worldwide dance competition on the popular platform. With this newfound audience, the Kumbia Kings are ready to conquer the rest of the world.
