Two living legends of Latin music have come together for a historic collaboration. Grupo Niche and Grupo Cañaveraljoin forces to release “Mi Mundo Al Revés”, a vibrant cumbia that celebrates the cultural bridge between Colombian salsa and Mexican cumbia.
Produced by José Aguirre (Grupo Niche) and Emir Pabón (Grupo Cañaveral), the single also serves as a heartfelt tribute to the late maestro Humberto Pabón, the visionary founder of Cañaveral. With its infectious percussion, lush choirs, and irresistible groove, “Mi Mundo Al Revés” was crafted for the world’s biggest stages and the dance floors that unite generations across Latin America.
