El Caballero is a spirited corrido where Manuel Felix raises a glass with his buddies and invites us into a buzzing night in Guadalajara. Over the hum of clinking Ron Martí, he paints himself as the kind of man who works hard so his people can thrive, enjoys life’s simple pleasures, and never needs bodyguards because he owes no one. His humble brag: with the little he owns he never flaunts, yet he is known as buena gente—honest, generous, and always ready to entertain.
Beneath the festive shout-outs, the song delivers a cautionary wink. Success attracts envy, and false friends can drag you into ruin, prison, or the grave. The real “caballero,” Felix reminds us, keeps his integrity shining even when surrounded by jealousy. In short, this track is both a toast to loyalty and a warning that the true mark of a gentleman is staying humble, sincere, and fearless in a world of hidden daggers.
