Fans were quick to drop comments, discussing how great he looked and even mentioning a resemblance between him and Johnny Depp. “You look like Edward Scissorhands,” wrote a fan. “Wow, so handsome without any tattoos,” wrote a second viewer.
Nodal’s face tattoos have long been one of his trademarks
One of Nodal’s biggest trademarks have been his tattoos, which cover his body and his face, and make him standout from other regional Mexican artists. In an interview with Billboard, Nodal discussed his appearance and made it clear that he always wanted to look different than other regional Mexican artists. “I didn’t want to be anyone’s shadow,” Nodal said. “I felt that the genre was stigmatized under all these stereotypes, and I wanted to break all of that because I was unsatisfied to see that our genre wasn’t going far enough.”
Nodal revealed that breaking into the industry was difficult, with many of the performers being challenged by what Nodal was doing with a genre of music that has remained relatively the same for decades. “I think the first year they saw me as the new kid, but by my second year, I don’t think they liked that I was still around. I saw a face of the regional Mexican that was quite raw, real and ugly,” Nodal said. “I was disappointed and thought, ‘OK, we probably won’t be creating a bond, much less collaborating. Fine. I’m going this way and [making] regional music bigger.’”
His work has paid off, becoming one of the world’s biggest stars within a few short years.
