Episodio #164 - El Randal | Aumenté la DOPAMINA, confié en mí y me firmó Peso Pluma

There are artists who emerge when success arrives. And there are others for whom success simply finds them… after years of perseverance. This episode of Abstracta Mente is a conversation with El Randal, but it's really a conversation about what happens before people know who you are. Before the Peso Pluma messages. Before a song like Dopamina started to take off on its own. Before all of that… there was hunger. A literal hunger to play wherever possible. Private gigs, dives, flea markets. Places where no one is thinking about the “future of the industry,” only about whether something will come up that day to keep them moving forward. Randal recounts how he started playing at 13, how his family was part of his musical development, how his father formed the band with his brothers, how music was initially a form of resistance before becoming an opportunity. Here we talk about that moment when you go from dreaming about something… to starting to act as if it's already your reality. From anecdotes like the origin of his nickname to the difficult decisions he had to make to fully commit to music, this episode becomes a portrait of what it truly means to pursue something when it still seems impossible. This episode isn't about a record deal. It's not about a viral moment. It's not about a song. It's about mindset. About self-belief. And about why, as Randal says in this conversation: if you don't believe in yourself… no one else will.
