The Lo Nuestro Award for Mexican Music Male Artist of the Year is an award presented annually by American network Univision. The accolade was established to recognize the most talented performers of Latin music. The nominees and winners were originally selected by a voting poll conducted among program directors of Spanish-language radio stations in the United States and also based on chart performance on Billboard Latin music charts, with the results being tabulated and certified by the accounting firm Deloitte. At the present time, the winners are selected by the audience through an online survey. The trophy awarded is shaped in the form of a treble clef.
Prior to 1992, the award was known as Regional Mexican Artist of the Year, until the category was split to form Regional Mexican Male Artist of the Year and the Regional Mexican Female Artist of the Year award. The award was Combined again in 2017 before being split up again in 2023. In 2025 the award was renamed to the Mexican Music Male Artist of the Year.
The award was first presented to Mexican singer Vicente Fernández in 1992. Mexican performer Christian Nodal hols the record for the most awards with 5.
