El Apoyo is a modern corrido that feels like jumping into the passenger seat of a roaring pickup cruising through Sinaloa. El Chachito and Óscar Maydon sing from the perspective of a loyal guardian who enjoys the apoyo—the backing—of a powerful “chapito,” a clear nod to the feared Chapo Isidro. Even when tired or sleepy, our narrator refuses to drop his guard because protecting the boss is non-negotiable. The repeated lines “Aquí sigo pa delante” underline a spirit of stubborn perseverance and absolute loyalty.
The song doubles as a road map of the region, name-checking Bamoa and Guasave while painting vivid snapshots of life in the countryside: convoys of armored trucks, men in bulletproof vests, and the code of honor that keeps everyone in line. References to “mochomos” (ants, slang for gunmen) and “fuertes flores” (strong flowers, coded language for narcotics) add color to the landscape. At its core, El Apoyo is an ode to camaraderie, courage, and regional pride—an anthem for those who stick together no matter how rough the road gets.
