Songfacts®:

  • Tito Double P, a singer and songwriter hailing from Culiacán, made quite the splash in the música mexicana scene, thanks in no small part to his cousin, Peso Pluma. Signed to Peso's label, Double P Records, Tito's not just a family member but also a frequent collaborator. He's co-written several of Peso Pluma's chart-toppers, including "PRC" with Natanael Cano and "Chanel" with Becky G, making it clear that musical talent runs in the family.

    "Dos Días" is a collaboration between Tito Double P and Peso Pluma, featured on Tito Double P's debut album Incómodo, released on August 22, 2024.
  • "Dos Días" translates to "Two Days," and the song explores the age-old predicament of strained relationships - namely, when their partner gives them the cold shoulder for two days. Mixed in with the emotional tension, the song tosses in references to drinking, drug use, and a love for money, with lyrics that touch on the hollowness that can come with material success. Sure, they've got the stacks of cash, but what about the love?
  • The track is a blend of traditional corridos with a contemporary twist, typical of the música mexicana genre that Tito Double P has come to represent. Produced by Tito with his go-to team, Ernesto Fernández and Arturo García, the song mixes familiar sounds with modern production flair.
  • Tito's collaborations with Peso Pluma have consistently struck a chord with listeners, from earlier hits like "La People" and "La People II" to "Los Cuadros." Even though "Dos Días" wasn't released as a single, it didn't stop the song from finding its way onto the Billboard Hot 100, where it debuted on September 21, 2024.
  • The title of his debut album, Incómodo, was inspired by a viral social media comment that said "Tito se ve incómodo" ("Tito looks uncomfortable") in photos where he appeared serious or reserved. The phrase became a running joke among fans, so he decided to use it as his album title to spark conversation.
  • Tito's album Incómodo soared to the top of Billboard's Top Latin Albums chart, surpassing even his cousin Peso Pluma's album Éxodo. It dominated the chart for nine nonconsecutive weeks.
