Alejandro Fernández

Singer Alejandro "El Potrillo" Fernández is one of Mexico's biggest international music stars. The son of icon Vicente Fernández, he established himself as a ranchero singer during the 1990s. His self-titled debut album was nominated for Regional Mexican Album of the Year at the Lo Nuestro Awards in 1993. Four years and four albums later, he debuted his first foray into Latin pop with the chart-topping Me Estoy Enamorando. He hasn't been a stranger to the charts since. Nine of his albums have ascended to the top spot on Latin Pop charts, while 11 more have entered the U.S. Top 200. 2000's Entre Tus Brazos was nominated for Best Male Pop Vocal Performance at the inaugural Latin Grammy Awards. 2004's chart-topping A Corazón Abierto wed classic Mexican romantic balladry to Latin pop production. 2009's Dos Mundos topped the charts and was certified multi-platinum. In 2017, Rompiendo Fronteras combined the ranchera sound with Latin pop and reggaeton productions, earning multi-platinum certification. In 2020, Fernandez issued Hecho en Mexico, his formal return to folk music, recording only norteno and mariachi after two decades of flirting with pop. It topped the Latin albums and Mexican Regional charts and went to 65 in the Top 200.
