“Cartier” is a tumbado romántico, staying true to Xavi’s signature style. Built on smooth guitar melodies and a laid-back regional tumbado rhythm, the track captures late-night emotions of heartbreak and excess, delivering a collaboration that feels natural and refreshing for fans of música mexicana.
The release comes at a peak moment for Xavi, who continues to dominate streaming platforms with his recent hits. “No Capea” and “En Privado” currently rank within the Top 20 of Spotify Mexico and are charting across Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Honduras. ‘En Privado’ also broke into the Spotify Global Chart, peaking at #77 and remaining a steady international presence, further solidifying Xavi’s position as one of música mexicana’s leading voices.
Up next, Xavi will bring his hits to fans across the United States with the X Tour, spanning more than 18 confirmed dates and including major stops in Los Angeles, New York, El Paso, Chicago, and more. Additionally, he is a finalist at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Awards with two nominations for his chart-topping collaboration ‘En Privado’ in the categories of Sales Song of the Year and Tropical Song of the Year. Xavi will also appear as a featured speaker at the Billboard Latin Music Week conference.
