The NFL, in partnership with award-winning production powerhouse, NEON16, led by multi-platinum selling creatives One Six and hitmaker, Tainy, announced the first-ever Por La Cultura Mixtape: Volume 1. The compilation, headlined by chart-topping artists, Will.I.Am, Anthony Ramos, El Alfa, Yandel, Snow Tha Product, Trueno, and others, and flanked by leading producers Albert Hype, Jodosky and Chael, features exclusive tracks that capture the excitement and essence of Latino culture while celebrating the sounds of the game in new and modern ways.

The collaboration comprises 10 exclusive tracks, including hit single “Rómpela” featuring Yandel, El Alfa and Will.I.Am and released earlier this season as the backdrop to the NFL’s “Por La Cultura” campaign spot, “The Celebration.” The second single to launch is “Latino Activo” led by actor and recording artist, Anthony Ramos, an upbeat ode to the energy and passion Latino fans bring to the game every week. Other songs in the compilation boast a similar, modern Latin sound drawing from reggaeton, trap, dembow, Latin pop, house, edm and crossover rhythms. The music will be used at the league and club levels throughout the season, enhancing in-game elements, marketing activations and social media content among others.

The Por La Cultura Mixtape: Volume 1 is one of many league efforts to connect more deeply with Latino fans, especially through music which is consistently shown to be a leading passion point for this community,” said Javier Farfan, Cultural Strategist at the NFL. “NEON16 as the premier Latin music powerhouse was the perfect partner to bring this concept to life and imbue the energy, passion and overall football vibe to each track that, at its core, connects high energy and high impact sounds with youth and pop culture.”

One Six and NEON16’s Head of Creative, Ivan Rodriguez notes, “It’s a dream come true for One Six and NEON16 to partner with the NFL and these talented artists to create a modern, Latin-focused soundtrack for this amazing sport that connects with so many people worldwide.
