Corridos Bélicos

Corridos bélicos are modern Mexican corridos with a confrontational tone and lyrics about weapons, armed conflict, power and the drug trade.

'Bélico' means warlike. The label describes what a song is about more than how it sounds, so a bélico can use the guitars of corridos tumbados or the instruments of norteño and banda. Singer Luis R Conriquez took up the name for his own music and is the artist most tied to it. The line between bélicos and tumbados is blurry, and the subject matter is close to narcocorridos.

Artists it is known for: Luis R Conriquez.
