The Double P dynasty is thriving — and proudly rooted in corridos. On Christmas Day, Peso Pluma and his cousin and longtime collaborator Tito Double P released their long-awaited joint album, Dinastía.
“It’s something we’ve always wanted, and it’s only now that it could finally happen,” Tito tells Rolling Stone. “[Peso] was doing his thing and I was doing mine. It was always something we wanted to do, but now we’ve finally made it happen. We’re here.”
The 15-track project finds the cousins fully leaning into their corridos foundation, trading verses and melodies in their signature raspy delivery — but also tapping into elevated production and angelic choir arrangements between songs. The decision to stick to corridos — after both stars forayed outside of the genre in recent months — was fully intentional.
“It was important to send a message to the Mexican people that the more united we are, the stronger we are,” Peso says, with Tito adding, “[Corridos] is where we come from. It’s what we like to do, and it’s what’s going to last.”
Peso says the duo spent months trying to land on a title, only to realize the fans had already chosen it for them. “We ended up realizing that the people had already named it without us even knowing,” he says, referring to the way listeners had long dubbed the pair a “dinastía.”
Beyond family ties, Tito has also been one of Peso’s closest collaborators, with Peso calling him “the musical support I was missing” in his Rolling Stone cover story several years ago. “There’s a special chemistry, a different kind of chemistry when the two of us are together and when we work together,” Peso says now.
“People were always waiting for it — it’s what people want to see, and it’s what we like to do,” Tito adds.
