Peso Pluma & Ryan Castro’s ‘Quema’ Hits the Billboard Hot 100
La Double P is breaking records within the music industry, and this collab marks Castro's first time entering the chart
Breaking records within the music industry scene is becoming a daily habit for Peso Pluma. No so long ago, the corridos tumbados singer achieved a remarkable accomplishment by surpassing English artist Adele in terms of Spotify listeners. He was also the most listened-to artist in the world, with more than 52 million monthly listeners.
No one can deny that he’s becoming a true icon of Regional Mexican Music and corridos tumbados genre and his influence has already transcended his music.
His collaboration with Colombian artist Ryan Castro is a Reggaeton del viejito or de la vieja escuela song that has debuted on Billboard‘s Hot 100 List at no. 92. According to Luminate, it accumulated an impressive 6.1 million official US streams and has sold 1,000 downloads in the tracking week of July 14-20. This achievement marks the first time ever for the Colombian artist to enter the prestigious list.
Additionally, the song makes an entry at No. 21 on the Hot Latin Songs chart. Ryan Castro is relatively new to the Billboard charts, making his debut in January 2022 with his song ‘Mujeriego’. This track reached No. 33 on Hot Latin Songs, as well as No. 94 on U.S. and No. 125 on the Global 200.
Quema Music Video
The video clip was filmed in Guadalajara, same state where the Double P was born, and as a highlight of Mexican culture, some mariachis can be seen in the video.
Quema’ es el hit del verano de Ryan Castro que muestra el impacto de ambos artistas como fuerzas globales en la música y la cultura» –Sony music.
Another interesting detail that can be seen in the video is Peso Pluma’s teeth, a dental prosthetic apparently valued at 58 thousand dollars.
Braggao, a Mexican jewelry store known for creating designs for renowned figures in the artistic world like rapper Gera MX, Christian Nodal, and Cazzu, made the Double P design. The process involved an entire dental molding process to perfectly sculpt the teeth to match Doble P’s dental features, and the diamonds were individually placed on each tooth of the dental prosthesis.
It should be noted that the singer can put it on and take it off at any time he wants, because the precious stones were not added directly to his real teeth.
Here’s the official music video and lyrics of Ryan Castro and Peso Pluma’s collab.
Song Lyrics
Qué chimba SOG
Ghetto Star
Zaga
La Doble P
Zaga zaga zaga zau
¡Pu-pu-pum!
Ojitos chiquitico’ (Yah, yah), mirada que enamora
Un cuerpo que es candela y que te quema, quema (Ah)
Yo le saqué una moña (Yah, yah, yah; ajá), pensé que había un problema (Yeah)
Lo que yo no sabía es que ella quema, quema
Ese soy yo, el que te ve y te come a besos
El que tú llamas si quieres s*xo
Soy tu cantante, nene travieso
Quiero ese c*lo grande (Chau), ese c*lo obeso
I love you (Pu), qué chimba de view (Pu-pu; ja, ja, ah)
La mejor eres tú y no tiene novio
Y la que esté soltera que se suelte completa (Zaga)
Que esta noche no hay videos ni foto’
Ojitos chiquiticos, mirada que enamora
Un cuerpo que es candela y que te quema, quema
Yo le saqué una moña, pensé que había un problema
Lo que yo no sabía es que ella quema, quema (Tra, tra, tra)
Ese soy yo, el que te ve y te come a besos (Zaga zau)
El que tú llamas si quieres s*xo
Soy tu cantante, nene travieso
Quiero ese culo grande, ese c*lo obeso
I love you, cómo se ve el tattoo
Cuando capoteaba en la noche en el BMW (Zaga)
Que nadie intente enamorarla
Porque solamente yo soy el dueño de ese toto (¡Eh!)
I love you, vámono’ pa’ Tulum
Y cuando tú prenda’ ese Phillie, encendemos un bambú (Yah, yah)
Quiere’ de mi menú, mamacita, ere’ tú
La que me lo pone bien duro, pegada contra el muro
Bájalo sin disimulo, qué grande tiene ese culo
Tú sabe’, baby, soy tu Joker (Yah, yah, yah), soy el número uno
Cierra los ojos, bien, siéntelo, muy bien, soy el dueño de ese toto
