"La Culpa" (Spanish for "The Guilt") is the debut solo single by Mexican-American singer Joel DELEŌN.[3] It was released on October 21, 2021, by WK Entertainment following DELEŌN's exit from CNCO in May.[4]

Produced by Orlando Vitto and accompanied on guitar by Joss Favela, the song is a fusion of pop and Mexican regional music. It was composed by DELEŌN and his friend Samantha Cámara (daughter of Víctor Cámara).[3] Its lyrics tell about the guilt carried by the protagonist for betraying his girlfriend. The music video depicts Mexican heritage and cowboy-like scenes.[4]

Background

DELEŌN announced his exit from CNCO in April 2021, citing wishes to "grow and explore new artistic venues". It was preceded by a last-name change of the artist in an homage to his maternal grandfather, who taught him to sing.[5]
