Roberto Tapia, renewed and with new music
'Let the bush continue giving' is one of the Sinaloan artist's favorite songs
Roberto Tapia is celebrating that his new album has been well received and that this time things are working out the way he wants.
“Well, the truth is that we are all very motivated working together,” said Tapia in relation to the collaboration between his new publishing house and his work team. “The new record company is one hundred percent focused on my project.”
The area of the Sinaloan singer, he specifies, is northern music, banda music and occasionally mariachi. His new album is called “Que Continue La Mata Giving,” and it is a kind of “all about me” because the phrase that gives its name to the album is one of the performer's favorites.
“It is a form of expression of 'don't give up', of moving forward in my own way,” he said. “And it is a topic that I wrote just a couple of months ago with the intention of motivating everyone, not just the new generations, but the entire public in general, to fight.”
The emphasis that Roberto places on his new record company has nothing to do with a bad streak or a bad relationship with his previous company, he stressed. Rather, it has to do with the excitement of new promoters for his music and how successful his previous album was, the first one he made with his new recording house, which was called “The Return of Roberto Tapia”, and which was released in 2025.
The album, like all of Roberto's, has songs about love, heartbreak and corridos that narrate the exploits of renowned drug traffickers in Mexico, a genre that is quite widespread in that country and, in fact, with which Roberto became known when he began his career. That and having grown up in one of the states with the most drug-related activity in the country are his reasons for continuing to record this type of songs.
“I grew up in Culiacán, and the corrido is something that you have heard since you were a child,” he said. "So, telling real stories is something that I have always liked; many like it, others don't like it, but at the end of the day I have an audience that started supporting my career with that type of corridos and we continue to give that content to that loyal audience that I have."
In other words, your audience is in charge and “to the public what they ask for.”
On this album, Roberto wrote the songs “Las Palabras del Mochomo”, dedicated to Alfredo Beltrán Leyva, known in the drug world as “El Mochomo”, former leader of the Beltrán Leyva Cartel. Also “El Popeye”, which tells the story of a character who managed to generate “millions of greens” – dollars – and who started from the bottom, “Things are not going well”, and “The Lord”.
The stories are inspired by real events and situations “that everyone knows.”
“Living in Culiacán you realize everything,” he said. “What people talk about, what you have to see, what you have to live, so you get a little bit of everything.”
Heartbreak also has an important presence in Roberto's music, and many of these themes are those with which he has been able to establish a connection with his audience. They talk about experiences or a crisis at a time in their life. Among the most recognized are “Different Paths”, “It Was Not Easy” and “Looking at the Sky”.
Currently his heart is fine, no one has hurt him.
“My heart is always very good, it is always very well,” he said. “I'm always happy with love.”
