Bestselling Rivera has sold more than 20 million albums worldwide and became the first artist to have all ten of her studio albums debut at number one on the U.S. Top Latin Albums chart. Hailed as “La Diva de la Banda” (Diva of Banda), Rivera is the most dynamic female artist in banda music, a blend of Mexican musical styles that incorporates brass ensembles and heavy percussion. In a genre comprised mainly of men, Rivera has emerged as a major star and was named Banda Artist of the Year at the 21st Univision Premio Lo Neustro a la Música Latin Awards. She became the first female banda artist to sell out a performance at Gibson Amphitheater in Universal City, California, and the first regional Mexican artist to sell out two consecutive concerts of 20,000 seats at Nokia Theater in Los Angeles.
At the 2008 Billboard Latin Music Awards, Rivera’s critically acclaimed platinum album Mi Vida Loca was honored Regional Mexican Album of the Year. The autobiographical record conveys personal accounts of single motherhood, domestic abuse, divorce, and her successful music career. While Rivera mostly sings in Spanish, she includes an English-speaking banda version of Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive.” Rivera executively produced her latest album, Jenni, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Latino charts.
