The discography of Mexican singer and rapper Peso Pluma consists of four studio albums, two live albums, one extended play, and 59 singles. After departing from the independent label El Cartel de Los Ángeles in late 2021, he would join the Prajin Parlay label and collaborate with label-mate Raúl Vega on the song "El Bélicon", which was released on 4 February 2022.[1] It appeared on the US Hot Latin Songs chart at number 34, becoming Peso Pluma's first entry on the chart.[2]

In 20 April 2022, to purposely coincide with the number 420, he would release his debut EP Sembrando along with its accompanying single of the same name.[3][4] After releasing "30 Tiros" in June of the same year,[5] he would then collaborate with fellow singer Luis R. Conriquez to release "Siempre Pendientes" on 15 August 2022.[6] After the single was released, it attained controversy for its lyrics, which praise Mexican drug lord Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán and contains a mention of his son Iván Archivaldo Guzmán Salazar.[7] Further escalating its controversy, its music video, which attained 2 million views in its first 24 hours, was also removed from YouTube due to public outrage.[8] The release of "AMG" with Natanael Cano and Gabito Ballesteros led to Peso Pluma's rise in worldwide prominence, debuting on the US Billboard Hot 100. The song lyrically revolves around the Mercedes-AMG G 63 6x6 truck.[9]

After achieving his first song to appear on the Billboard Hot 100, Peso Pluma gained fame within Latin music at the start of 2024, collaborating again with Cano on "PRC", which peaked at number 33 on the chart.[10] After again attaining similar success with collaborations with Junior H on "El Azul" and Fuerza Regida on "Igualito a Mi Apá", which peaked at numbers 55 and 80 on the Hot 100, respectively, the singer simultaneously released two collaborative songs on 17 March 2023, "Ella Baila Sola" with Eslabon Armado and "La Bebé (Remix)" with Yng Lvcas. The pair became hits in the United States, peaking at numbers four and 11 on the Hot 100, respectively, and also reached peaks on the top two of the Billboard Global 200, with the former peaking atop the chart. For the former, it became the first regional Mexican song to peak within the top 10 of the Hot 100 and the first to peak atop the Global 200.[11][12][13][14]

Later releasing "Chanel" with Becky G and the solo song "Bye", he announced his third[15] studio album Génesis, which contained further collaborations with Junior H and Natanael Cano.[16] Released on 22 June 2023, it debuted at number three on the Billboard 200 with 73,000 album-equivalent units, making it the highest debut for a regional Mexican album in the chart's history.[17][18] From the album, the hit single "Lady Gaga" with Junior H and Gabito Ballesteros peaked atop the US Hot Latin Songs, as well as number 35 on the Hot 100.[19][20]
