Jenni Rivera’s children always wondered what sort of music their mom left behind after she tragically died in 2012. What would her music sound like if she was still alive today? What would she have wanted her legacy to be?

“He was up all night!

And just months after releasing their 2019 LP, Mujeres, the band has returned with a heartrending Ep titled Entre Los Dos.
Released in February, Mujeres found Mendoza reckoning with her family history, drawing from the trauma (and unflinching fortitude) passed down from her foremothers. Mendoza was born in San Francisco to Mexican parents of indigenous Purépecha descent...
