Jesús Alfredo RodrÃguez Hernández, known as El Compa Chuy, is a corrido singer from Culiacán, Sinaloa, who began performing in his local music scene as a teenager, developing a storytelling style built around accordion, guitar, and tuba. He launched his professional recording career in 2008 with the album Alacrana Lavada, which included songs like the title track and âLa Avioneta y el Boludo.â He followed up in 2009 with Gente Peligrosa, which featured singles like âAl Nuevo Altataâ and "Llegó un Matón al Infierno." That year, his version of "El Corrido del Katch" gained traction on Latin charts and helped broaden his audience. He continued that momentum with the 2010 album Con Estilo, known for tracks such as âEstilo Especialâ and "Comandante Antrax." After a few years focused on touring and live performances, he released the live album Corridos y Canciones Paârribeñas (En Vivo) in 2016, followed by En Vivo Desde la Finikera in 2023, both of which highlighted his ability to connect with fans through raw, in-the-moment renditions. In 2025, he released a new studio album titled El Más Poderoso, a 12-track project reaffirming his role in preserving and evolving the corrido tradition with updated production and timeless narrative themes.
