    By the age of 34, Jiménez had already risen to the top of Colombian popular music, or “música popular,” a genre that fuses the soul of Mexican ranchera with Colombian tradition and has its roots in the country’s coffee-growing region, which includes Caldas (where Jiménez was born), Quindío, Risaralda and Tolima. In 2024, he achieved a career-defining feat, selling out Bogotá’s Movistar Arena three times and drawing more than 40,000 passionate fans to the venue.

    Yeison connected with his fans not only through his numerous hits, but also with his inspiring life story of struggle and big dreams. Last year, he fulfilled another dream: selling out Bogotá’s El Campín Stadium, becoming the first Colombian regional artist to do so. He had been gearing up for a second show at El Campín, scheduled for March 28.

    While most of Yeison Jiménez’s songs became anthems, here are five emblematic ones (in no particular order).
