Los Angeles, CA (August 23, 2024) – Grupo Firme and Demi Lovato, accompanied by a team of songwriters from Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG), a leading, global music publisher, have taken the best of both worlds to create “Chula,” a unique song that blends genres and languages.
“Chula” emerged from a songwriting session organized by UMPG in Los Angeles, CA. In just one day, the artists, producers, and songwriters came together and created the sound of “Chula” with a credit list that includes UMPG talent such as Pablo Preciado, Luis Mexia, Sheeno; as well as Eduin, the lead vocalist of Grupo Firme, and Demi Lovato.
Eduin Caz, from Grupo Firme, expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating: “’Working with Demi and the talented UMPG team has been an incredible experience. ‘Chula’ is a testament to the power of creative collaboration and the endless possibilities that arise when artists come together to create music.”
Demi Lovato shared her enthusiasm about the track, stating: “Collaborating with Grupo Firme on this track was an unforgettable journey. Eduin’s lively energy and the UMPG composers’ talent shined during the creation process, and you can truly feel it when listening to the song.”
“Chula” comes as part of UMPG’s strategy to amplify Musica Mexicana across the global market. “At UMPG, we take smart risks and love to pursue innovative projects with a global reach. We are honored to have incredible songwriters and songs like ‘Chula’ in our catalog,” commented Yadira Moreno, Managing Director Mexico & Central America and VP of New Business Development LATAM.
Isael Gutierrez, President of Music VIP Entertainment and Manager of Grupo Firme expressed: “We are proud of Grupo Firme and how far we have come, we know that our sound is ready to reach a broader audience, and there was no better artist to collaborate with than Demi Lovato.”
