Marca MP’s music is universal, having reached the hearts of individuals of all ages who identify with their lyrics and garnered millions of streams and followers.  Marca MP started out in January 2018 by playing gigs at quinceañeras and flea markets. By November of that year, Chato had amassed a collection of songs, with the dream of not only recording them, but also dropping them on major streaming platforms. In 2019, the band recorded four tracks, including a catchy, upbeat corrido named “El Güero,” marked by lyrics emoting a defiant declaration of principles and a nostalgic melody. A few months later, the song reached a million streams on Spotify, and Marca MP began to play outside of California.
