The discography of Moroccan-American rapper French Montana consists of five studio albums, twenty-six mixtapes, 51 singles including 57 as featured artist, 32 music videos and 18 promotional singles.

French Montana first gained notoriety in his native the Bronx as the creator of the DVD series Cocaine City, a locally-oriented series loosely based on Smash DVD, for which it is an aesthetic tribute. Debuting in 2002, the series focused on hip hop-based interviews with artists including 50 Cent, Jeezy, and the Diplomats, and often served to instigate local feuds and rivalries. The series ran until 2010, and he used the recognition to severally promote his career as a recording artist, which was its ultimate intention. His debut mixtape, The French Revolution was released in 2007. He became acquainted with Senegalese-American singer Akon in 2008 prior to joining his record label, Konvict Muzik the following year as a "shopping artist." His tenure on the label proved to be short-lived, as Akon failed to come to mutual terms with the rapper and its parent label, Interscope Records.

Meanwhile, French Montana persisted in his recording career and amassed a number of mixtapes. His tenth, Coke Boys (2010) spawned the local hit single "Choppa Choppa Down" (featuring Waka Flocka Flame). His eleventh mixtape, Mister 16: Casino Life (2011) contained his future hit song "Shot Caller" (featuring Charlie Rock). Prior to its commercial release, he became acquainted with prominent Miami rapper Rick Ross—as Montana's music began gaining traction in that area—as well as Puff Daddy—whose song "It's All About the Benjamins" is referenced on "Shot Caller," while also being a frequenter of the Miami area. Both Ross and Puff Daddy appeared on the official remix of the song, and by December of that year, Montana signed to Combs' Bad Boy Records in a joint venture with Ross' Maybach Music Group; both labels were under Universal Music Group, and the contract was under the aegis of the former label's distributor, Interscope Records. The following month, "Shot Caller" was issued as his debut commercial single, and it soon marked his first entry on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts.

While his debut studio album was scheduled for release in May 2012, it suffered numerous delays. Its first single, "Pop That" (featuring Drake, Rick Ross and Lil Wayne) was released the following month and became his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100—at number 36. The song also received double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America, and was followed by "Freaks" (featuring Nicki Minaj), released in February 2013 and the similarly successful "Ain't Worried About Nothin'" in April; all three served as promotion for Excuse My French (2013), which peaked at number four on the Billboard 200 and saw generally negative critical reception. He released a number of commercially-oriented singles in the following three years—including the gold-certified "Bad Bitch" (featuring Jeremih), and the platinum-certified "Lockjaw" (featuring Kodak Black) and "No Shopping" (featuring Drake)—to mild success, each receiving placement on retail mixtapes. His 2017 single, "Unforgettable" (featuring Swae Lee) saw his furthest commercial success and peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot 100.
