"Qué Onda" is a song by the regional Mexican group Calle 24, Mexican singer-songwriter Chino Pacas and American regional Mexican band Fuerza Regida. It was released on August 30, 2023 and was produced by Angel Tumbado and Jesús Ortiz Paz. It is the former's breakout single, peaking at number 61 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[1]

Background

Diego Millán, the leader of Calle 24, made the song on a request from another group. He and Miguel Armenta started working on the song around August 2023 in California. He said, "and midway through it, we said, 'It's coming along very well.' That same day we recorded it, and it was something very impressive. So, the other project didn't happen, and I was like, 'Well, I'm going to take my song,' because I wrote it. [JOP] told me we should do it together, so we uploaded a reel to Instagram, promoting the song. That day, we added the voices, and we did not imagine [the results]. That night it accumulated several million [streams]. It was something crazy."[2]

On the day the song was released, the truck of Fuerza Regida's security team was attacked in Veracruz by criminals, who killed a member of the team. Following the incident, the song went viral on the video-sharing platform TikTok.[3]
