Nuestro Silencio (Our Silence)
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah nah
Nah nah nah
Yo solo fui una víctima de tus sagrados ojos
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah
nah nah nah
I was just a victim of your sacred eyes

Neto Peña and Leonel Garcia's "Nuestro Silencio" is a sweet, intimate serenade about wanting to escape the world with someone special. The singer is completely smitten, calling himself "una víctima de tus sagrados ojos" [a victim of your sacred eyes] and describing his love as "marítima, nadas por toditos mis antojos" [maritime, you swim through all my whims]. He sees her as beautiful no matter what, even when "la foto no esté editada" [the photo isn't edited], and wants to take her to the beach to be enchanted.

This song is all about deep connection and trust. He wants to talk in silence, believing "tus labios me entienden" [your lips understand me], and dreams of a secret escape: "Ven, pero en silencio Para que nadie moleste Y podamos disfrutar este silencio Nuestro silencio" [Come, but in silence So no one bothers us And we can enjoy this silence Our silence]. He sees her as the "música que hace que pare el tiempo" [music that makes time stop] and promises to stay by her side, even when things are tough, saying "No sueltes esto que aún le queda vida" [Don't let go of this that still has life]. It's a beautiful picture of wanting to share everything, from quiet moments to seeing "como sabe el mundo a tu manera" [how the world tastes your way].

Sería Un Placer Remix (It Would Be a Pleasure Remix)
This is the remix
Pluh-pluh
Si pudiera conocer
A tu corazón, sería un placer
this is the remix
pluh-pluh
if i could know
To your heart, it would be a pleasure

Have you ever met someone and just instantly felt that connection, like you're already partners in crime? That's exactly what Neto Peña, Mcklopedia, and Golden Ganga are singing about in "Sería Un Placer Remix"! They're totally captivated by someone new, and the whole song is about how much they want to get to know this person better.

They're so open about their feelings, saying things like, "Si pudiera conocer a tu corazón, sería un placer" [If I could know your heart, it would be a pleasure]. They love everything about this person, even their perfume! They're ready to drop everything and follow them wherever destiny leads, promising, "Si me voy, tranquila, siempre vos a volver" [If I leave, don't worry, I'll always come back]. It's a really sweet, direct song about that exciting, slightly nerve-wracking feeling of wanting to explore a new connection.

Pura Borrachera (Pure Drunkenness)
Si camex de pura borrachera es el único
Que hablo porque es lo único que hago
Soy un borracho y que siga las
Penas
if camex of pure drunkenness is the only one
that I speak because it is the only thing that I do
I'm a drunk and follow the
sorrows

“Pura Borrachera” is a loud, funny drinking song about trying to leave heartbreak and stress at the bottom of a bottle. The narrator says, “de pura borrachera” [because I’m completely drunk], and admits that being drunk is practically all he talks about and does. His girlfriend has dumped him, ignored his calls, and inspired several dedicated songs, but he keeps insisting, “ya se fue el dolor” [the pain is gone]. The repeated invitation to “tomar y tomar” [drink and drink] turns the breakup into a group celebration, with alcohol treated as both a blessing and a curse: “bendito sea el alcohol, maldito sea tu amor” [blessed be alcohol, cursed be your love].

The verses are packed with Mexican slang and comic exaggeration. “Hasta la madre” means extremely fed up, while “carnal” is a casual word for a close friend, like “bro.” He asks the bartender for a drink “en nombre de ellas” [in their name], tells the group to raise a glass, and says he is smoking and drinking to escape stress. There are playful references to Facebook memes, Waze, Fifty Shades of Grey, and the magician Merlin, mixed with the wonderfully confused line about forgetting he is not a dancer. The result is a messy night of bottles, rejected calls, hurt pride, and friends shouting along with Neto Peña and Yubeili. The narrator says he has moved on, but the sheer amount of drinking suggests the breakup is still sitting right there beside him.

Todo Bien (All Good)
¿Cómo darle tu cariño a una persona que no sabe querer?
Se nubló el cielo y la semilla dejó de crecer
El humano ya no es humano y eso hace que todo sea imposible
Hubo a quién consideré un hermano, pero hasta la amistad es corruptible
How can you give your affection to a person who doesn't know how to love?
The sky was clouded and the seed stopped growing
The human is no longer human and that makes everything impossible
There was who I considered a brother, but even friendship is corrupt

Neto Peña's "Todo Bien" is a really honest look at feeling lost and overwhelmed, but still finding hope. He starts by asking, "¿Cómo darle tu cariño a una persona que no sabe querer?" [How do you give your love to someone who doesn't know how to love?], which sets the tone for a lot of the struggles he's feeling. He talks about how exhausting life can be, even saying, "Estoy exhausto, cansado, no puedo respirar" [I'm exhausted, tired, I can't breathe]. It's a feeling many of us can relate to when things get tough, especially when he mentions feeling like a human isn't human anymore and that "hasta la amistad es corruptible" [even friendship is corruptible].

But even with all that weight, the song takes a beautiful turn. He finds comfort in simple things, like a good friend, a conversation, a beer, or a bonfire in nature. He realizes that "La vida es tan rica que no hace falta riqueza" [Life is so rich that wealth is not needed]. It's a powerful message about what truly matters. He's not chasing being first anymore, saying, "Ya no me importa si no llego primero a la meta" [I don't care anymore if I don't reach the finish line first]. Instead, he finds solace in his mother's voice and art, believing that "todo puede solucionarse" [everything can be solved]. Despite feeling lost, like in "el país de Nunca Jamás" [Neverland], he holds onto the idea that "Todo estará bien" [Everything will be fine]. It's a journey from deep struggle to finding peace in the small, meaningful parts of life.

A Toda Velocidad (At Full Speed)
Ya llevamos demasiado tiempo
Sentados bajo una tormenta
Tanta discusión me roba el aliento
Por última vez hay que escapar
We've already been too long
Sitting under a storm
So much discussion steals my breath
For the last time we must escape

Get ready for a wild ride with Neto Peña and Yoss Bones in "A Toda Velocidad"! This song is all about that exhilarating, bittersweet moment when you know a relationship is ending, but you want to go out with a bang. They've been through a lot, sitting "bajo una tormenta" [under a storm] and all the arguments are stealing their breath. But instead of dwelling on the end, they decide to escape one last time.

It's like they're saying, "Yeah, 'fue bonito el vuelo' [the flight was beautiful], but it's going to crash eventually." So, why not enjoy the final moments at full speed? They want to forget all the bad stuff, bury it in a jar, and just have one last passionate night. Even though the "contrato" [contract] is over, they're still down to turn up the heat and remember all the good things about each other before it all goes to "la basura" [to the trash]. It's a powerful anthem for living in the moment, even when that moment is the very last one.

Locos Eternos (Eternal Crazies)
Directamente desde Alzada
La Bruja está en el beat
Súbele
Aunque el dinero llueva
Directly from Alzada
The Witch is in the beat
Turn
Even if the money rains

“Locos Eternos” is a loud promise of survival through music. Neto Peña and Turek Hem describe themselves as “pobres locochos” [poor crazy guys], saying that money can rain down without changing who they are. The central boast is simple: “Pasan los años y yo estaré” [Years will pass and I will still be here]. Their music will keep playing, so they will not disappear. “No tengo stop, voy a volverme eterno” [I have no stop, I’m going to become eternal] turns that idea into a mission. In this song, becoming “eternal” means leaving a mark through rap rather than living forever literally.

The verses mix street pride, hard work, jokes, and threats. The former troublemaker says, “Me reformé” [I changed my ways], while still warning rivals not to provoke him. Two young men have become “lobos” [wolves] who bite back, and their fire cannot be put out once it is lit. “La cosecha no se va a dar sola” [The harvest will not grow by itself] gives the song its work ethic: he keeps moving because he wants to go worldwide. There is also a playful line about needing “Una cerveza, mami, porque aquí me derrito” [A beer, baby, because I’m melting here]. By the end, the “niño del barrio” [neighborhood boy] calls himself “rey del bloque” [king of the block], while giving respect to the streets and his parents. It is brash, funny, and determined, with the chorus turning that attitude into one stubborn message: the years can pass, but these “locos” plan to remain.

Lo Fácil Es Difícil (The Easy Is Difficult)
Pero pa' mí no ha sido fácil
Y volverlo fácil ha sido difícil
Como todo ser humano, soy frágil
Y más frágil con esta puta ambición
But for me it hasn't been easy
And making it easy has been difficult
Like every human being, I'm fragile
And even more fragile with this damn ambition

“Lo Fácil Es Difícil” means “Easy Is Difficult,” and that contradiction is the song’s central idea. Neto Peña says success has not been simple for him: “Pero pa’ mí no ha sido fácil” [But it hasn’t been easy for me]. He admits that ambition makes him even more vulnerable, while rejecting the fantasy that some people discovered a secret route to perfect luck or eternal life. Instead, he describes sacrificing his mental health and almost everything else to achieve his dreams and protect the people he cares about. The phrase “rifarme de reversa y en contra” is slangy and vivid: it means struggling hard, going against the odds, even moving backward before finding a way forward.

The second half gets tougher and more confident. He says showing weakness can make him stronger, and compares himself to someone wearing “un caparazón” [a shell] forged by pain. He has hit rock bottom, walked the streets alone, and now refuses to hide. Then comes the blunt refrain about money: “Maldito y bendito dinero” [Cursed and blessed money]. He earned what he has, admits he wants more, and does not pretend money is purely good or bad. That honesty makes the song feel like a conversation with someone who knows ambition can build a life while also taking a serious toll.

Carita De Santa (Santa's Face)
Ella tiene cara de que no rompe nada
Pero todo cambia en la madrugada
Le gusta lo mejor, no le dices que no a esa carita de niña educada
Pero le encanta la fiesta, fiesta, fiesta, fiesta, fiesta
She looks like she doesn't break anything
But everything changes at dawn
She likes the best, you don't say no to that polite girl's face
But she loves to party, party, party, party, party

“Carita de Santa” plays with the contrast between a sweet, well-mannered appearance and a serious appetite for nightlife. The woman looks like she “no rompe nada” [wouldn’t break anything], with “cara de niña educada” [the face of a well-behaved girl], but “todo cambia en la madrugada” [everything changes in the early morning]. The repeated hook, “le encanta la fiesta” [she loves partying], makes her real priority clear: dancing, drinks, and staying out late. The title means “saintly face,” which fits the joke perfectly: she looks innocent, but the lyrics call her “una diabla” [a devil].

The verses turn the night into a playful, extravagant flirtation. There is Chanel perfume, bikinis, alcohol, a borrowed Mustang, speeding, and later a borrowed Rolls-Royce with a romantic dinner and rum. “Vaga” here suggests someone wild or always out having fun, while “te late” means “you like” or “you’re into it.” Even the “caguamón” is slang for a large beer, so the polished image keeps colliding with casual party behavior. The narrator is clearly hooked by her looks and her mischievous attitude, admitting that she “mueve como nadie” [moves like nobody else]. It is a cheeky celebration of a woman who appears refined, breaks the rules when the sun goes down, and knows exactly how to turn a night into trouble.

Lento Y Contento (Slow And Happy)
Rap Trap Records
Trai-go pa' que te enganches
Flow, blunts y un par de samples
Lagrimas hicieron flashes
Rap Trap Records
I bring so that you get hooked
Flow, blunts and a couple of samples
tears made flashes

“Lento Y Contento” means “Slow and Happy,” and Neto Peña builds the song around that relaxed pace. The repeated line, “Más lento, fumar me pone contento” [“Slower, smoking makes me happy”], presents cannabis as his way to calm down and heal: “Sé que no soy perfecto / Pero es mi manera de sanar” [“I know I’m not perfect / But it’s my way of healing”]. “Déjate llevar” means “let yourself go” or “go with the flow,” so the chorus invites the listener to loosen up, breathe, and move more slowly. The opening mentions “flow, blunts, and samples,” bringing together rap style, rolled cannabis cigarettes, and music production.

Under the laid-back hook, the verses carry heavier memories. He says anxiety gives him away, while images of children and death fill his mind, and he smokes because he keeps “real and frightening stories” inside. Even so, he refuses to stay down: “El dolor nunca me venció / Sigo de pie dándolo to’” [“Pain never defeated me / I’m still standing, giving it everything”]. He also praises a true friend who does not make excuses, celebrates his Mexican roots in “mi tierra en los cerros” [“my land in the hills”], and speaks with pride about his people and the music they make. The result is a song that sounds loose and funny in places, especially when he jokes about being called a “yonki” [“junkie”], while its lyrics admit that the relaxed smoke-and-music routine is covering anxiety, street memories, and the effort of staying on his feet.

Música Mexa (Mexican Music)
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
Los locos siguen en la esquina
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
Ah-wah-wah-wah-uh-wah
The crazy ones are still in the corner

Get ready to dive into the world of Neto Peña with "Música Mexa"! This track is a proud declaration of Mexican identity and street credibility.

Neto Peña makes it clear he's a true "mexa de hueso colorado" [dyed-in-the-wool Mexican], with "tatuajes en mi piel morena" [tattoos on my brown skin] shining under the moon. He and his crew, "los locos," are always around, enjoying "medicina de la buena" [the good medicine] and making their presence known. He's confident, even a bit cocky, saying "no se haga wey, nos conocen desde lejos, pendejos" [don't play dumb, they know us from afar, assholes]. He's a master of his craft, comparing himself to a modified dice with sixes on every side because he doesn't like to lose. Neto Peña is all about that "música mexa" – a raw, authentic sound from the streets of Mexico, full of "mucho flow" and "contenido pesado" [heavy content]. He even throws in a shout-out to the legendary José José, saying he wants to "saborear mi dolor" [savor my pain] because "no ha nacido mal que me rompa" [no evil has been born that can break me]. It's a powerful anthem of resilience, national pride, and staying true to your roots, all wrapped up in a cool, laid-back vibe.

Gallo De Pelea (Fighting Rooster)
Soy un gallo de pelea
Estoy dispuesto a morir por mi bandera
Nada me voy a llevar cuando me muera
Solo una cruz y una caja de madera
I'm a fighting rooster
I am willing to die for my flag
I'm not going to take anything with me when I die
Just a cross and a wooden box

“Gallo De Pelea” presents a tough, determined voice that refuses to give up. A gallo de pelea means a fighting rooster, so the image is someone ready to defend what he believes in, even at great personal cost: “Soy un gallo de pelea” [I am a fighting rooster]. The singer says he would die for his flag and leave this world with only “una cruz y una caja de madera” [a cross and a wooden box]. That blunt image is balanced by hope: “Un día saldrá el Sol a pesar de las tormentas” [One day the sun will come out despite the storms]. He remembers working until dark, making mistakes, losing sleep, and carrying scars from a difficult journey. Chambeando means working, especially working hard, while “la aterrizada” [the landing] describes the painful fall back to reality after a long, difficult road.

The song is also a proud declaration of Mexican identity. The singer honors his roots, his mother’s effort, the Virgin tattooed on his body, and the people who fought for independence. He compares himself to Emiliano Zapata, a Mexican revolutionary named in the lyrics, “batallando” [battling] through struggle. The Mexican flag becomes personal: green carries hope, white reflects purity, and red holds his inherited history. “Soy águila en nopal, comiéndome culebras” [I am an eagle on a cactus, eating snakes] refers to the image on Mexico’s flag, while turning it into a fierce self-portrait. Even after falling, learning from mistakes, and facing the certainty of death, he chooses to keep working, laughing, crying, and following his chosen path. It is proud, bruised, and sometimes wonderfully over-the-top, like a speech shouted from the heart.

Risas Y Dolor (Laughter And Pain)
Y quién dijo que no
Claro que la calle tiene sabor
Sabe a vicio, frío, risas y dolor
Y quién dijo que no
And who said no
Of course the street has flavor
It tastes like vice, cold, laughter and pain
And who said no

Ever wondered what life on the streets of Mexico feels like? Neto Peña and MC Davo are here to tell you in "Risas y Dolor"! They declare, "Claro que la calle tiene sabor" [Of course the street has flavor], and that flavor is a mix of "vicio, frío, risas y dolor" [vice, cold, laughter, and pain]. It's a blunt and honest look at their world.

MC Davo comes in hot, calling himself the "rey de la lírica" [king of lyrics] and boasting about his unique flow. He talks about hanging with his "clica" [crew] and getting the party started, saying, "Saquen la fiesta, que hoy le damos hasta que amanezca" [Bring out the party, today we'll go until dawn]. It's all about loyalty, good times, and the realness of their neighborhood. They even mention the importance of family as their "motor" [engine] in life, showing that even in the midst of the street's challenges, there's a strong sense of community and support.

Bang Bang
Yo, yo
El pinche Neto Peña
La Bruja está en el beat
Estamos mal de la cabeza, lo sé
I, I
Neto Peña
The Witch is on the beat
We're sick in the head, I know

Neto Peña introduces himself with a loud, mischievous crew anthem. “Estamos mal de la cabeza, lo sé” [We’re crazy in the head, I know] is less a confession than a cheeky badge of identity: people already know them that way, and he is not changing. “No le saco a los problemas, más bien al topón” [I don’t back away from problems, I face them head-on] gives the song its tough attitude, while “Yo sigo igual, el mismo pelón” [I’m still the same, the same bald guy] says that success or attention has not changed him. The repeated “bang, bang” sounds like a warning from his clica, meaning his crew, but it also works as a punchy chant over the beat.

The verses mix street pride, dancing, weed, and independent teamwork. At home, “la moneda se reparte” [the money gets divided], with everyone receiving their share, while “un montón de cholos haciendo mundial su arte” [a bunch of cholos making their art known worldwide] gives the group big ambitions. He contrasts the old “sueño americano” [American dream] with being “orgullosamente mexicano” [proudly Mexican], then turns the party up with a bottle, flirtation, and a dance floor where even “la niña fresa” [the posh or preppy girl] moves to the hip-hop. The references to Robocop, Princess Leia, and the count “siete, ocho, nueve” [seven, eight, nine] keep the mood playful and cinematic. It is a rowdy portrait of a Mexican rap collective claiming space, sharing the spotlight, and making enough noise to be heard.

Acelero (I Accelerate)
Directamente desde México
Llegaron los de Alzada (así nomás, perro)
El pinche Neto Peña (a huevo)
Acelero, acelero y los números hablan
Directly from Mexico
The guys from Alzada arrived (just like that, d*mn)
The f*cking Neto Peña (hell yeah)
I accelerate, I accelerate and the numbers speak

Get ready to feel the energy! Neto Peña, straight out of Mexico, brings us "Acelero," a track all about ambition, success, and proving yourself. He's not shy about his love for money, declaring "los billetes me encantan" [I love money] and how "los números hablan" [the numbers speak] when it comes to his achievements. This song is a shout-out to his crew, his "clicka loca," and a warning to anyone who doubts him.

Neto Peña is all about pushing limits, saying he'll keep going "Hasta que me canse y la línea final rebase" [Until I get tired and cross the finish line]. He’s confident in his unique style, comparing his words to "Un arma nuclear va saliendo de mi garganta" [A nuclear weapon coming out of my throat]. He's a hustler, a survivor, and he's made a deal with success, giving his soul to it. He's not just aiming for fame; he plans to be a classic, "más que los noventas" [more than the nineties]. It's a blunt message to his haters: work hard, earn your stripes, and don't expect anything for free. He's moving forward, "Pa' alante y sin mirar atrás" [Forward and without looking back], and wants everyone to know that success is up to you, "Depende ti y nunca de los demás" [It depends on you and never on others].
