• January 21: The Latin music categories for the 37th Annual Grammy Awards are revealed. In addition, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences introduces a new category for Latin jazz albums. ^[3]
• January 28:
  • The Mexican peso crisis sets off an uncertainty for Latin music, as regional Mexican music remained one of the biggest music genres and could have negatively affect Latin music as a whole. ^[4] Due to the crisis, EMI Music Mexico began reducing stuff, becoming the first Latin music company to do so. ^[5]
  • KAFY-AM (based in Bakersfield, California) and KELF-AM (based in Santa Barbara, California) were dropped from the Hot Latin Tracks reporting radio panels due to format changes. ^[4]

  • American executive and musician Jay Ziskrout forms Grita Records a label aimed at the Latin Alternative, or rock en español, market in the United States. ^[2]
  • A report published by Billboard magazine showed that unsigned Latin music acts in Canada were easily selling thousands of copies, showing a correlation in Canada's melting pot cities Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver. ^[2]
• February 11: Little Joe and La Mafia decided not to attend the 1995 Tejano Music Awards and spoke out against the organization for what they believed to be a faulty voting process. ^[5]

• March 31:
  • American Tejano performer Selena is shot and killed by Yolanda Saldívar, her friend and former manager of the singer's boutiques. ^[12] The impact of the singer's death had a negative impact on Latin music, her genre—which she catapulted it into the mainstream market—suffered and its popularity waned following Selena's death. ^{[13] [14] [15]} It was called an end of an era, as the Tejano market's "golden age" ended and never recovered. ^[16]
  • During the aftermath of Selena's death, the state of Texas cancelled all concerts that were scheduled for that day. ^[17]
  • American regional Mexican music television host Johnny Canales married his wife Nora. ^[18]
• April 1: Beginning with the April 1, 1995 issue of Billboard magazine, the weekly column of Latin music called "Latin Notas" began incorporating a column dedicated to the Music of Chile spearheaded by Pablo Marquez of the El Mercurio. ^[7]
• April 4: American disk jockey Howard Stern mocked Selena's murder, burial, and mourners, and criticized her music. Stern said "Spanish people have the worst taste in music. They have no depth." He then played Selena's songs with gunshot noises in the background. ^{[19] [20]} After an arrest warrant for disorderly conduct was issued for him, Stern made an on-air statement, in Spanish. ^{[21] [22]} The League of United Latin American Citizens found Stern's apology unacceptable and urged a boycott of his show. ^[23]
