- Chuyin always appears on camera wearing a massive crocheted baby mask with black eyes and a mischievous smile, keeping his real identity hidden.
- Street Mob Records, led by Fuerza Regida frontman Jesús Ortiz Paz, signed Chuyin in 2023 and is backing his rise in música mexicana.
- Los Locos Nunca Mueren is Chuyin's debut album, containing 16 songs and collaborations with Luis R Conriquez, Oscar Maydon, Fuerza Regida, and tololoche player Moisés López.
- Chuyin sustains a character of a reckless, alcohol‑guzzling three‑year‑old baby, posting on social media about being stuck in a white box “rehab” as part of the album rollout.
- Chuyin says the project is meant to show he is a genuine songwriter and artist, hoping the music will cement his credibility beyond the mask.
Why it matters: Chuyin's debut album and theatrical persona give Street Mob Records a fresh, marketable act while giving fans a new blend of humor‑laden regional music; Chuyin hopes the success will cement his credibility beyond the mask.
