LOU LOU drops you straight into a neon-lit pool party in Guadalajara, where luxury labels and hard-edged bravado mix like bubbles in a glass of Dom Pérignon. Gabito Ballesteros and Natanael Cano paint the scene with shout-outs to Versace, Ferragamo bikinis, pink powder, cherry-flavored weed, and a Rolex that ticks past midnight. The vibe is playful yet intense: glamorous women glide through the water, armored trucks cruise outside, and a tight security team called “los Delta” keeps danger at bay while the music pumps.
Below the sparkle, the song flaunts the rising power of the corridos bélicos movement. References to “el señor de la M,” loyal “plebes,” and bulletproof rides echo real-world cartel mythology, turning the track into a badge of status, loyalty, and calculated risk. It is a celebration of youth that balances on the edge of excess: equal parts fashion show, street anthem, and fearless declaration that this new wave of Mexican artists can party, protect their own, and dominate the spotlight all at once.
Gabriel "Gabito" Ballesteros Abril, born on July 23, 1999, in Cumpas, Sonora, Mexico, is a rising singer-songwriter and record producer in the Regional Mexican and corridos tumbados genres. Raised in a musical family, he learned guitar at eight and performed in mariachi and choir groups from a young age. After pausing his early career to earn a degree in industrial engineering, Gabito returned to music with renewed energy, signing with Los CT Records and collaborating with major artists like Peso Pluma, Natanael Cano, Junior H, and Becky G.
Gabito Ballesteros gained notable recognition with the 2022 breakout single "El Chamán" and his 2022 collaboration "AMG" alongside Natanael Cano and Peso Pluma, which landed on the Billboard Hot 100 and reached number one in Mexico. Known for blending traditional Mexican sounds with modern melodies, he continues to shape the future of Latin music and was named Billboard's Latin Artist on the Rise in July 2023. In 2024, he released his debut full-length album, The GB, marking his impressive arrival on the international stage.
