Now, of course, when it comes to Nathan El Cano, we've gotten into him a bunch of times, but when it comes to right now, as of right now, this man is going crazy on the charts with his album that's out now on all DSPs.
Now, when it comes to Nathaniel Cano, obviously with our coverage of him, it hasn't been of this latest album as far as specific tracks, but I have covered the album, Poor K. Lod Demora, as far as the album that we're currently talking about.
I did talk about it in totality, giving an overview, but now, especially with the track Perlas
Negros, I believe that's how you say it, that is more of an Afrobeat plus regional Mexican
fusion type of track.
And of course, when it comes to that track, it's currently the third most played track in
Mexico, but more specifically, when it comes to nothing Elcano, I believe Latin
musicians are currently finding the foothold in the global landscape of music.
And I think maybe the internet has a lot to do with that as far as people being more open to expanding their palette.
But K-pop Demon Hunters being the second most play track project in the world definitely showcase that people are more willing to expand their palette.
So with that being said, I think when that they'll Kay know having five tracks in the top 100, well, really the top 35 in Mexico specifically.
at some point at some point hopefully he is able to cross over because i remember
natan vaga um paco paco paco paco ptolema bad bunny as far as this specific year artists like that
that have crossed over and i believe rosa regita also cross over but as far as it's getting back
into the track it did go number three in mexico but if you wanted to know where else it was
affecting the masses. Just know it was the 33 most played song in Guatemala,
91 overall as far as global. And when it comes to Apple music, it's number two on Mexico,
but number 17 in Guatemala. So as far as the debuting and the top 20 in two specific countries,
but then of course when you come to Mexico and it being the third most played track
on Spotify, but the second on Apple, safe to say that,
Perloss Negras is the most successful track off of his album currently.
And when it comes to that, I think a lot of people don't realize that when it comes to the music
consumption in 2025, a lot of people are streaming.
Not a lot of people are going out and buying physical copies of your album or singles.
So that means you need a lot of user generated streams to cultivate even a certain amount
of album units.
Because if you don't know, it takes approximately 1,400.
streams to equal one album unit and ultimately when it comes to not the nail cano he's been putting out
his time and time again to the point where i believe the first time i ever covered him was may 3rd
2024 and that was with oscar may adone titled with the track titled madonna so i've been following him
for quite some time as far as the podcast being considered especially when we're covering all of his
releases up until this album release so i do believe when it comes to nothing el can no the main thing
you need to know is that with his album a lot of people really listen to it from a club anthem type of
standpoint because of course in mexico that is where the perlos negas track is really going
crazy because of having like unofficial drink promos and nightlife venues and don't ask me how i know
that just know you know i'm pretty good in my job so that being said um definitely make sure to rate
this five stars and share this is this
somebody who you think would enjoy Latin music deep dots but we're gonna keep going
into Nathanel Cano's latest music and the next track we will be getting into is Como S
