Colombian rap is enjoying a major crossover moment in 2026, and Feid and Granuja’s “50 MIL PIEX” is right at the center of it.
Three months after its June release, the Medellín collaboration remains one of the biggest songs in Colombia. On the Billboard Colombia Hot 100 for the week of September 14, “50 MIL PIEX” holds the No. 2 position, matching its placement from the previous week. The record has now spent 12 weeks on the chart and previously reached No. 1.
For Colombian hip-hop, however, the significance goes beyond chart numbers. The record connects Feid’s mainstream urbano reach with Granuja’s underground Medellín rap background, bringing two different sides of the city’s music culture together on one of the country’s most successful songs.
From EL MOCO VERDE to a National Hit
“50 MIL PIEX” arrived on June 12, 2026, as part of Feid’s five-track EL MOCO VERDE project. Granuja actually appears twice on the EP, collaborating with Feid on both “Los Cuervos” and “50 MIL PIEX.”
The latter quickly separated itself from the rest of the project.
Rather than sticking completely to the reggaeton sound that helped turn Feid into an international star, the collaboration gives Granuja room to bring his distinctly rap-oriented approach into Feid’s world. The result combines melodic urbano elements with introspective rap and a melancholy atmosphere.
Lyrically, the record revolves around distance, nostalgia, regret and memories of a past relationship. The title’s reference to being 50,000 feet in the air becomes part of the song’s imagery of physical distance failing to erase an emotional connection.
That combination clearly connected with listeners.
“50 MIL PIEX” Has Serious Staying Power
The most impressive part of the story may be how long the record has remained relevant.
Billboard Colombia identified “50 MIL PIEX” as the highest-impact urbano song on its chart for the week of August 24. Urbano itself accounted for more than half of the music consumption represented on that week’s Colombia Hot 100.
By September, Feid and Granuja were still near the top.
Spotify data tells a similar story. During the week ending September 17, “50 MIL PIEX” ranked No. 5 on Spotify Colombia, generating roughly 1.13 million streams in the country during that week alone. On September 19, it remained at No. 6 on Spotify’s Colombian daily chart.
That is considerable longevity for a track released back in June.
A Big Moment for Granuja
For Granuja, the success places an artist strongly associated with Medellín’s underground hip-hop culture in front of a much broader audience.
That makes this collaboration especially interesting.
Colombia’s international music boom is frequently associated with reggaeton and the wider urbano movement. Yet beneath that mainstream success sits a long-established rap culture, particularly around cities such as Medellín and Bogotá.
Granuja represents a different part of that ecosystem.
Having his name beside Feid’s on a song that reached No. 1 on the Colombia Hot 100 shows how easily the boundary between Colombia’s underground rap scene and its mainstream urbano industry can disappear when the right collaboration happens.
Feid didn’t simply borrow a rap aesthetic. He put an established Colombian rapper directly alongside him.
And listeners responded.
Medellín’s Two Worlds Meet
There’s another reason “50 MIL PIEX” feels important: both artists come from the Medellín area, but their careers represent very different paths through Colombian music.
Feid became an international urbano superstar capable of reaching enormous audiences throughout Latin America and beyond. Granuja built his reputation much closer to hip-hop’s underground, cultivating an audience around darker production, lyricism and independent Colombian rap.
“50 MIL PIEX” allows those worlds to coexist rather than forcing one artist to completely become the other.
The numbers suggest that combination wasn’t simply an experiment.
With the song still sitting at No. 2 on Billboard Colombia after 12 charting weeks, Feid and Granuja have produced one of Colombia’s most enduring urbano/rap crossover records of 2026.
For Colombian hip-hop, that could ultimately be the bigger story: an underground rapper doesn’t necessarily have to abandon his identity to appear alongside one of the country’s biggest stars.
Sometimes the underground can simply meet the mainstream halfway.
