Oscar Maydon's latest venture into the corridos bélicos scene is nothing but bold and daring, as showcased in his second full-length album, "Distorsión," released under Rancho Humilde. Hailing from Mexicali, Baja California, Maydon fearlessly delves into the genre's unapologetic storytelling, infusing it with a mix of grit, grime, and the unexpected swank of a reggaetón track titled "YW&F - Versión Reggaetón."

Embarking on a journey that transforms them into modern-day Mexican Gatsbys, Maydon, alongside Natanael Cano and Gabito Ballesteros, kicks off the album with the symbolic "Tipo Gatsby," rewriting the conventional narrative of the American Dream. The 17-track album features collaborations with familiar names like Junior H, Chino Pacas, and Codiciado, along with the unexpected addition of the renowned rapper Tyga on "Kim Kardashian."

"Distorsión" boldly confronts listeners with punishing lyrics, invigorating guitar leads, and clever use of Mexican slang, as exemplified in the track "Ahuevo Que Sí." Maydon embodies the rebellious spirit of a musical outlaw, solidifying his position as a dynamic force in the corridos bélicos scene. The album leaves listeners captivated by the audacious charm woven into his musical narrative.

With Maydon's fearless approach, "Distorsión" serves as a testament to his ability to navigate and redefine the boundaries of the genre. It's a bold entrance into the booming corridos bélicos movement, promising a sonic experience that challenges the listeners' perceptions of traditional storytelling within the genre.
