TWO RISING FORCES IN MÚSICA MEXICANA COLLIDE AS RIA AND JASIEL NUÑEZ UNVEIL “PERDERTE”

LOS ANGELES, CA (September  2026) - With each release revealing a new dimension of her artistry, Mexicali-born rising star RIA continues to bring her distinct perspective to the evolving landscape of música Mexicana. Teaming up with Jalisciense sensation Jasiel Nuñez, they present “Perderte,” a collaboration that marks an exciting new chapter for RIA. Centered on the emotions that remain long after a relationship has ended, the track brings both rising stars together in a shared reflection on heartbreak, distance, and the process of moving forward while memories of a past love continue to linger. Through their distinctive perspectives and undeniable vocal chemistry, RIA and Jasiel Nuñez capture the longing, heartache, and unspoken emotions that remain when letting go proves easier than done. "Perderte," along with its official music video are available now on all streaming platforms.

Built around enchanting requinto melodies and the rich resonance of the tololoche, “Perderte,” pairs a romantic warmth with an underlying sense of melancholy that mirrors the song’s emotional tension. Jasiel Nuñez opens the song with a heartfelt delivery before RIA enters with an emotionally charged presence of her own, transforming the collaboration into an emotional dialogue between two people still carrying the weight of a love they have yet to fully leave behind. Together their voices come together in striking harmonies, amplifying the emotion behind the feeling they can no longer hide. The contrast between their distinct vocal styles adds another layer of depth to the track, allowing each artist to showcase their vocal range individually while creating an undeniable chemistry through their shared harmonies.

RIA enters this release amid a defining stretch of live and creative momentum. On September 5, she will make her highly anticipated festival debut at ARRE Fest in Mexico City, standing as one of the only five women on this year’s lineup alongside names including Banda MS, Gabito Ballesteros, Alejandro Fernández, Los Tucanes de Tijuana.
