Food, entertainment and tons of great music. Hi, this is Tetris Kelly with Billboard News. We are in Houston at the Livestock Show and Rodeo. We bring you up close with your favorite artists. Thanks to Spotify, Billboard has all the access.
The Houston Rodeo attracts millions of people from all over the world with food, games and so much entertainment. In its 92nd year, the Rodeo is the hottest event in Houston. With daily musical acts, there is something for everyone. And I'm right here on the floor at NRG Stadium where your favorite artists are about to take the stage. Música Mexicana was well represented with acts like Ivan Cornejo.
Ivan Cornejo:
My first show was here in Houston. Half the crowd was my family and the other 12 people were, you know, just fans. It feels good to come back just two years later and do the Houston Rodeo which was crazy for me. It's a beautiful feeling. Houston has always shown me so much love.
Tetris Kelly:
Spotify has the fiesta in full force here at Rodeo. Their activation at the Houston Rodeo brought authentic Mexican culture to the fore. The La Tierra De Texas venue celebrated Tejano culture with soulful tunes from Spotify's Rompiendo: Houston playlist, air fresheners and two free months of Spotify Premium. Go Tejano Day was the epicenter of Mexican pride, highlighting the greatness of Música Mexicana. Los Tigres Del Norte made their big comeback breaking their own attendance record with 75,595 stadium fans.
Los Tigres Del Norte:
We broke our own record today. It feels fantastic. It feels very emotional. This is our fifth time coming here to Houston. The next time you come here, we want to put on a better show for them. This is our responsibility.
