Grupo Duelo achieved a significant career milestone during the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Week. The band was recognized for their chart success, specifically two No. 1 singles on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart: "Te Cura el Tiempo" and "Para Que a No Duela." These songs are featured on their album Gravedad.
During the event, Oscar Iván Treviño reflected on how Duelo has infused norteño music with a more romantic approach and experimented with different rhythms, contributing to its modernization. The band also highlighted their commitment to representing the distinct culture of northern Mexico and southern Texas.
This year also saw Duelo transition back to a traditional label, signing with Warner Music. This partnership coincided with their "Gravedad Tour," an arena tour across the United States and Mexico, which included multiple sold-out performances. The tour's success underscores the enduring appeal and evolution of norteño music.
