“Número 7” immerses us in the world of a young heir who has turned his father’s illicit talents into an empire. With vivid street slang, Junior H paints the rise from encostalaba mota (bagging weed) and cortaba la amapola (harvesting poppies) to crossing the border, multiplying greenhouses, and watching money “drip down his whole body.” The number 7 stitched in diamonds across his chest becomes a badge of power, family pride, and survival in a ruthless trade.
Beneath the swagger, the lyrics reveal loyalty to the viejón who taught him everything, gratitude for relatives like Francisco and Adrián, and an unbreakable resolve to keep pushing even as envy circles. It is equal parts cautionary tale and victory lap: a celebration of hustle, legacy, and identity from the Mexican corrido tradition, served with Junior H’s signature raw, melodic twist.
