KORDELYA,
the rising Mexican-American artist and producer who is quickly emerging
as one of the most talented new faces of the exploding Latin music
scene, today pays tribute to her cherished Mexican heritage, releasing
her new single “-es + (menos es más)” alongside José Madero, acclaimed artist and founder of the popular Mexican rock band PXNDX.
Arriving right on time for Hispanic Heritage Month, “-es + (menos es más)”
is a traditional Huapango song that dives deep into the topics of
relationships and deception. Many of us have found ourselves in
situations where we think we know someone, relate to them well, and
develop deep feelings for them, but everything comes crashing down when
they do something that completely alters our perception and reveals the
reality of who they are. KORDELYA and Madero take this theme on with a
bold approach, speaking to the subject in the context of romance, where
we meet someone who sparks our interest, and we may think that we have a
genuine connection with them, but then we’re faced with the shocking
realization that we’ve been fooled by a smokey veil of masks and
manipulation. The song also plays on theatrical motifs, like “scene” and
“play,” and those seen in board games like chess, speaking to how
behavior and social interaction can be a cover for the interpersonal
politics and power plays that lurk beneath the surface.
The third single KORDELYA has shared from her upcoming album, which is set for release in March 2023, “-es + (menos es más)”
blends KORDELYA’s blossoming innovation with José Madero’s unmatchable
talent and will encourage listeners to assert their independence so they
can break free from any toxicity that has scarred their lives. It’s a
powerful reminder that it’s not only acceptable but vitally important to
put ourselves first in order to protect our own safety, mental health,
and conviction of truth. Fans can expect the music video to drop
shortly.
“-es + (menos es más)”
also comes ahead of KORDELYA and Madero’s highly anticipated tour
together, which will bring the brilliant artists to multiple cities in
Mexico through the end of the year.
