Songfacts®:

  • Peso Pluma teams up with Junior H and Eslabon Armado for this regional Mexican song with a laid-back-yet-assertive tumbado vibe. These three heavy hitters are part of the música Mexicana movement that has spread worldwide, and "La Durango" is a victory lap. Blaring horns intertwine with their nonchalantly delivered verses, painting a picture of their hard-earned success.
  • The Dodge Durango is a mid-size crossover SUV manufactured by Dodge since 1997.

    The rugged Dodge Durango is a metaphor for the artists' robust ascent beyond the regional Mexican music scene.
  • This isn't a one-off collab. "La Durango" marks Peso Pluma's seventh team-up with Junior H and his second with Eslabon Armado, following their smash "Ella Baila Sola."
  • Behind the scenes it's a familiar crew. Pluma co-produced the track with his production partners Jesús Iván Leal Reyes and Ernesto Fernánde, the same team who brought us Pluma and Junior H's "Luna" among many others.
  • Pluma and Eslabon Armado singer Pedro Tovar performed "La Durango" on the May 16, 2024, episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
