In his new album “Éxodo,” Peso Pluma reflects on his life before and after skyrocketing to fame. The young Mexican-American Grammy winner is boastful about leading música Mexicana‘s inflated global reach, but he also grapples with that responsibility, unleashing darker subject material ( “I live a fast-paced lifestyle / The life of an artist / Drugs and women,” he sings in “Hollywood”) than in “Génesis,” his 2023 Billboard chart-topping debut.
“Its very different — ‘Éxodo’ from ‘Génesis’ — I think I reached some maturity in my vocals and from everyday and every artist that I collaborate with,” Peso told PvNew in a video interview. “I learn something new from all of them and I try to grab those little things and bring them to my music.”
