Xavi - The Making of 'La Diabla' (Vevo Footnotes)

La carrera de Xavi ha sido corta pero con giros tan extraordinarios que han convertido la historia del músico en leyenda. Oriundo de Phoenix, Arizona, Xavi comenzó su travesía artística en el 2020 con guitarra en mano, inspirado por las bandas de pop rock Camila y Sin Bandera. Tras llamar la atención de la disquera Interscope con su canción viral “Amigos con Derecho”, el artista tuvo un accidente automovilístico que casi termina con sus ambiciones artísticas al dejarle sin poder cantar. Sin perder tiempo, Xavi continuó trabajando en su música y subió un video a las redes cantando desde su cama de hospital, el cuál no sólo se fue viral en TikTok, sino también despertó admiración dentro de su fanaticada. Su recuperación marcó su regreso triunfal con “La Víctima”, su tumbado romántico que debutó en la posición #24 en la lista Hot Latin Songs de Billboard. A finales del 2023, su canción “La Diabla” se viralizó en las redes y debutó en el Billboard Hot 100. “La canción fue inspirada por las morras”, dice Xavi en entrevista exclusiva con Footnotes. “El videoclip fue dirigido por Hector Toro, y me encantó el principio del video donde aparezco con los músicos al lado de la mesa de billar. Me gusta porque it looks like we’re just jamming out”. Xavi y el director Héctor Toro nos dieron todos los detalles detrás de la filmación del video de “La Diabla” en el nuevo episodio de Footnotes.

Xavi’s short career has had some extraordinary twists and turns that have made his story into the stuff of legends. Hailing from Phoenix, Arizona, the "La Diabla" hitmaker began his musical journey in 2020 with guitar in hand, inspired by the ballads of Mexican pop-rock stars Camila and Sin Bandera. After garnering the attention from Interscope Records with his viral “Amigos con Derechos,” he suffered a serious car accident that left him without the ability to sing, forcing his artistic ambitions to the backburner. Without missing a beat, Xavi kept working on his music while recovering, and later uploaded a video to TikTok singing from his hospital bed. Not only did it go viral, it awakened a certain admiration for the artist’s plight. His recovery brokered a triumphant return with “La Victima,” his tumbado romantico that debuted at #24 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs chart. In late 2023, “La Diabla” became smash as well. “The song was inspired by girls,” the singer reveals in an exclusive interview with Footnotes. “The video was directed by Héctor Toro, and I love its beginning, where I’m at the pool table surrounded by all the musicians. Me gusta porque, it looks like we’re just jamming out.” Xavi and Toro gave us all the details behind the scenes in our latest episode of Footnotes.
