Mexican and regional rock are at an unexpected point with the release of “Love to be loved”, the new single by The Warning and Carín León, available as of February 6, 2026, along with its respective music video. The collaboration has sparked immediate interest among fans of both projects for its international approach and its break with traditional formulas.
The Warning, made up of sisters Daniela, Paulina and Alejandra Villarreal Vélez, continues to consolidate its global growth from Monterrey, while Carín León, one of the most influential names in regional Mexican music, explores a different facet without losing its interpretative identity. The result is a song completely in English, a decision that clearly targets the international market and, in particular, the U.S. audience.

It does not seek a forced mix of genres, but a sonic meeting point.
This song by Carín León and The Warning moves between a rock base, pop tinges and a vibe close to country.
Allowing both styles to coexist without losing authenticity.
For Hispanic audiences living in the U.S., this collaboration represents a sign of Latin music’s momentum.
Where artists of different genres bet on projects that dialogue with wider audiences without renouncing their roots.

The narrative plays with the idea of winning and losing, both in the game and personally.
The closing of the video transforms the atmosphere into a kind of karaoke-like duet.
An intimate scene that symbolizes the encounter between two musical worlds that, although different, share an emotional sensitivity.

For the Latino community in the United States, the collaboration between Carín León and The Warning is not only a musical experiment.
It is a clear sign of the reach that Mexican artists are achieving on a global stage.
