Fuerza Regida Manifests Big Dreams, Bigger Ambitions on ‘111XPANTIA’: Stream It Now

Mexican American powerhouse Fuerza Regida has turned their vision into reality with the release of their ninth studio album, 111XPANTIA, released Friday (May 2). Explored through imaginative storytelling exploratory regional Mexican music sounds, the 12-track album captures the group’s hustle, evolution, and deep connection to their roots.

The title — pronounced “ixpantia” and derived from the Náhuatl word, a dialect of the Aztecs meaning “to manifest” — reflects frontman Jesús “JOP” Ortiz Paz’s lifelong belief in the power of the law of attraction and turning dreams into reality. “This is the most important album of my career, the one that brings everything together,” JOP previously told Billboard Español.

Opening with the gritty anthem “GODFATHER,” it sets the tone for an explorative ride beyond Mexican music, free of collaborations for the first time in the band’s history. From nostalgic nods like “Malboro Rojo” that evoke their early norteño-laden sound to inventive risks like the corrido synth-laced “Nocturno” and innovative banjo riffs on “Peliculiando,” Fuerza Regida expertly balances their street-inspired roots with inventiveness.

Adding another layer of intrigue, the loop of Vicente Fernández’s live version of “Acá Entre Nos” is subtly reimagined throughout “Ansiedad,” while a hypnotic sample of Ellie Goulding’s vocals from “Don’t Say a Word” is seamlessly woven into “Tu Sancho,” adding another surprise element for fans diving into the album’s details.

111XPANTIA arrives during a period of sky-high momentum for the San Bernardino troupe, following the massive success of their No. 1 hit “Me Jalo” with Grupo Frontera — which topped Billboard‘s Latin Airplay and Regional Mexican Airplay charts — and the teaser track “Por Esos Ojos,” which has already surpassed 154 million streams on Spotify alone since its February release.

With ambition woven into every song, the album continues to testifies Fuerza Regida’s ability to dream big, push boundaries, and stay true to their roots along the way.

They are slated to perform at Madison Square Garden and Hollywood Bowl June 20 and 21, respectively. The album is now available across all streaming platforms and physical formats, including CD and vinyl.
