Peso Pluma

About

Peso Pluma isn't just riding the wave of música Mexicana's global explosion; he's the damn tsunami. Emerging from Guadalajara, Jalisco, this young artist has redefined corridos tumbados, injecting a raw, urbano energy into the traditional genre. His music, a potent cocktail of traditional instrumentation, trap beats, and gritty storytelling, speaks directly to a new generation. Peso Pluma’s style is characterized by his distinctive, almost strained vocal delivery, a signature that cuts through the layered production. The 2022 release of "El Belicón" (with Raúl Vega) proved to be a breakthrough, solidifying his status as a rising star. Collaborations with Natanael Cano, Junior H, and Becky G have further expanded his reach, blurring genre lines and attracting a diverse fanbase. His chart-topping success is a testament to his ability to capture the zeitgeist, addressing themes of street life, romance, and ambition with unapologetic honesty. With his unique blend of tradition and innovation, Peso Pluma is not just a musician; he's a cultural force reshaping the landscape of Latin music. Recent projects, including high-profile collaborations and festival appearances, cement his place as a major player.
