Christian Nodal and Cazzu have ended their relationship, confirming the unexpected split via social media on Thursday (May 23).
The former couple — who first went public in November 2022 and had their first baby together the following year — shared a joint statement on their Instagram Stories. “The time has come to share that Julieta and I are going our separate ways,” Nodal wrote, which Cazzu reposted on her own account. “Our love and respect for each other remains strong, especially in our role as parents to our wonderful daughter, Inti.”
Following Nodal’s repost, the Argentine singer (born: Julieta Emilia Cazzuchelli) shared in her stories: “We artists are a screen of what happens in real life. You go through love, heartbreak, successes and mistakes with us. Today, as it was many times and as there are still many, you accompany us, some with hate and others with much love. Thank you, everything heals.”
Both Cazzu and Nodal are artists in their own right who have broken barriers in their respective genres.
The former is known as one of the female pioneers of the trap movement in Argentina, and who paved the way for other urban women including Nicki Nicole, Maria Becerra and Emilia. Hailing from Jujuy, a northwestern province of Argentina, Cazzu first dipped her toes in cumbia and rock music before discovering the trap realm, where she’s had the opportunity to collaborate with artists such as Bad Bunny, Rauw Alejandro, Bizarrap and Natti Natasha, to name a few.
At the age of 18, the latter revolutionized regional Mexican music by pioneering mariacheño, a subgenre fusing mariachi’s strings and horns with the norteño accordion. The Latin Grammy-winning artist, who has collabs with Romeo Santos, Ricky Martin, Residente, Alejandro Fernandez and more, made history after the Gera MX-assisted “Botella Tras Botella” became the first Regional Mexican title to enter the Billboard Hot 100 chart in its over 60-year history.
