California norteño band Grupo la Meta made waves last week after they composed a corrido about Bernie Sanders – but it turns out he’s not the only candidate who has been immortalized in song. Since at least last year, artists have been composing corridos as a way to get the word out about the candidates they support and issues in the upcoming election. Grupo la Meta, for example, decided to write their song because they felt other Latinos had thrown their weight behind Hillary Clinton without ever considering Bernie.
Below, we’ve rounded up some of the other fire corridos that have cropped up this campaign season – there’s even a few dedicated to Donald Trump.
