Formed in Culiacán, Sinaloa in 2014, La Ventaja is a regional Mexican group that built its name on guitar-driven corridos and norteño songs before expanding into a broader mezcla of banda sinaloense and sierreño styles. Led by singer and songwriter Irvin Sánchez, the band moved from the local Sinaloa circuit to the wider Mexican market with the release of the album Guitarras in 2016, which showcased early favorites such as âPalabra de Hombreâ and âLa Paloma de Acero.â They consolidated their presence in the corridos scene with Culiacán Sigue Rifando in 2018 and its follow-up Culiacán Sigue Rifando, Vol. 2 in 2019, whose tracks âEl Adiós del Ranasâ and âJavier DÃazâ became key calling cards. In 2020 La Ventaja entered a particularly prolific phase, issuing the studio albums Llegamos para Quedarnos, Norteño and Vieja Escuela alongside the live sets Con Tololoche: Las Favoritas de los Patrones (En Vivo) and Grabaciones Con Servando, Vol. 2 (En Vivo), while releasing singles like âLos Inadaptados,â âNoche de Parrandaâ and âEl Comerciante.â The 2021 album Sin Miedo al Ãxito and the collaborative single âDéjenme Hacer Dineroâ featuring Marca Registrada, La Ventaja & Código FN marked their entrance into the mainstream Regional Mexican ecosystem, followed in 2022 by the corrido-heavy album ALVentajazo and collaborations such as âEl Jefe de Jefesâ and âEl Consentido.â In 2023 the group leaned further into live projects with En Vivo Pá Las Plebes, Culiacán Deluxe, Culiacán Deluxe 2 and Las Pisteables (Primera Ronda) [En Vivo], and in 2024 they issued the studio album Leyendas plus videos for songs like âTu Forma de Ser,â âMi FantasÃaâ and âWakala.â In 2025 La Ventaja focused on standalone singles including âPeliculón,â âFiesta en Michoacán,â âLocos,â âEl Malcriado,â âSubiendo a Mi Ritmoâ and âHasta el Amanecer,â while âSin Fin de Lucroâ became one of their biggest tracks and reached number 34 on Billboardâs Regional Mexican Airplay chart.
