Peso Pluma Unleashes Dual ‘Éxodo’: Stream It Now
Written by djfrosty on June 20, 2024
Peso Pluma unleashed his highly anticipated new album, Éxodo, on Thursday (June 20). The two-disc set — with one disc powered by his signature corridos and the other packed with hard-hitting trap and hip-hop songs — showcases the Mexican star’s duality and versatility.
The LP follows Peso’s massive 2023, which included the release of his history-making Génesis. The album debuted and peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard 200, the highest ranking for a Mexican music album on the tally. Earlier this year, it won the Grammy for best música mexicana album (including tejano).
Éxodo is a testament to Peso Pluma’s commitment to continue globalizing regional Mexican music and, at the same time, introduce himself to a new audience collaborating with artists such as Cardi B (“Put Em in the Fridge”), Quavo (“Pa No Pensar”) and Rich the Kid (“Gimme a Second”). In these trap and hip-hop songs, part of the second disc, he shows off his slick rapping skills.

For those OG Peso fans, who fell in love with his music thanks to his corridos like “El Belicón” and “PRC,” are in for a treat. In disc one, Peso delivers back-to-back songs powered by his signature sound that thrives on horn instruments. His collabs there include Ivan Cornejo (“Reloj”), Neton Vega (“La Patrulla”) and Luis R Conriquez (“Sr. Smith”).
Peso Pluma, Billboard‘s 2023 Rookie of the Year, catapulted to stardom last year placing more than 20 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 in a span of months. The hitmaker is currently on his Éxodo Tour, produced by Live Nation, which includes upcoming stops in Miami, Dallas, Nashville and Atlanta.
