Try not to cross Peso Pluma and Cardi B.
Pluma tapped the Bronx, New York-born rapper for his new single, "Put 'Em in the Fridge," with both flexing their Spanglish skills.
The track is from Pluma's new album "Éxodo," released Thursday.
On it, Cardi raps in her first and second languages: "Diablo Cardi / tengo a to' los narcos smelling de lo white / y a sus mamis pidiendo que le firmen los panties." Translated in English: "Devil Cardi / I have the narcos smelling of the white / and your girls asking me to sign their panties."
Peso Pluma knows you know who he is. How the Grammy winner put Mexican music on the map.
She later raps, "Ya no 'tamos broke, 'tamos shining, 'tamos pretty / White powder del aeropuerto cruzando pa' la city." Translated in English: "We're not broke anymore, we're shining, we're pretty / White powder from the airport crossing the city."
Though Cardi, who is Afro-Latina, has noted her first language is English, she has opened up about having both languages spoken in her household.
"My mom, she speaks English. But my dad, he really speaks mostly ... Spanish," she told Jazzys World TV in 2022. "And some of my family members, they don't speak English at all. So I grew up with both."
Pluma, a native Spanish speaker, boasts his English later in the song: "Forty shooters, if I send them in, they comin' in / Fifty kilos, if you need them, then they comin' in / Hundred thousand real close and they're Mexicans / I say the word, and they put you in the (expletive) fridge."

The first disc includes regional Mexican music and corridos tumbados, while the second includes Latin trap and reggaeton. Other features on the rapper's fourth body of work include Quavo, Anitta, Rich the Kid, Arcángel and DJ Snake.
"Éxodo," follows Pluma's third album, "Génesis," released in June 2023.
