Christian Nodal’s ‘No Te Contaron Mal’ Passes 1 Billion Views on YouTube
The 2018 hit is the regional Mexican artist’s second to clear the mark following the official video for “Adiós Amor.”
Christian Nodal's music video for "No Te Contaron Mal" has achieved a significant milestone, surpassing 1 billion views on YouTube. The official video was directed by Omar Torres and Victor Zambrano and is Nodal's second song to reach this impressive number, following the success of "Adiós Amor" in 2020. The song is from Nodal's 2019 album Ahora, which was co-written with producer Edgar Barrera.
"No Te Contaron Mal" spent 38 weeks at the top of Billboard's Regional Mexican Airplay chart and won a Latin Grammy, as well as regional Mexican song of the year at the BMI Latin Awards. The songwriter, Barrera, shared that this song holds a special place in his heart as it was the first song he wrote with Nodal and marked the beginning of their friendship.
They met shortly after "Adiós Amor" was released, and within 30 minutes, they were already penning the lyrics on a remote trip to Jalpa, Mexico, where there was no internet or phone connection. The song tells the story of infidelity, and its creation happened in just 30 minutes. Nodal's latest studio album, Bandera Blanca, was released in May of this year and has been supported by his Pa' l Cora Tour 2026.
