Iván Cornejo
Ivan Cornejo is a singer and songwriter of Regional Mexican Music from Riverside, California. Alma Vacía, his 2021 debut album, was released by Manzana Records in August, just two months after his 17th birthday. It peaked at number two on the Regional Mexican Albums chart, while its singles, "Noche de Relajo" and "Corazón Frío," also registered inside the Top 20. A week before his 18th birthday, he issued the full-length Dañado. It too topped genre charts during its first week of release. He followed with sophomore long-player Donde Estas in December 2023.
An adept guitarist who taught himself to play at age seven, Cornejo began jamming with older friends at 14. They praised his playing and singing acumen and encouraged him to develop his skills further. He did. At 15 he began posting video requintos (guitar instrumentals) on TikTok, covering songs by his favorite artists. They registered millions of views and drew the attention of Andres Garcia, president and A&R boss of Houston's Manzana Records, who encouraged his singing and then signed him after discovering that he was also a fine songwriter.
"Noche de Relajo" appeared in late 2020 and registered on streaming charts. "Llamas Perdidas" followed in June 2021, just after his 17th birthday. In the meantime, his performance videos began to score major notice on YouTube, garnering millions of views. In late July, Cornejo issued the single and video for "Corazón Frío" and in October he released the eight-song album Alma Vacía; it rocketed to number two on the music industry's Regional Mexican charts. He followed it with the Top Ten single "El Greñas Mentado."
In February 2022, Cornejo issued the single "Perro Abandonado," a corrido of insufferable heartbreak. Two weeks later, he released "Triste," a duet with Polo Gonzalez. In June, a week before his 18th birthday, Cornejo released the romantic, ballad-centric Dañado, another seven-track album. It soared to the Top of the Regional Mexican Albums chart as well as streaming, debuted at number four at Top Latin Albums, and cracked the Top 200 at number 149 (unusually high for a Regional Mexican album). The set also became the first chart-topper for Manzana Records, boosting the label's profile across the industry. Cornejo took seven months to release the heartfelt single "Aquí Te Espero" that peaked at 89 on the Hot 100. He followed it with the single "Donde Estas" in October, which served as the title track of his second long-player, released during his first U.S. tour.
