"La Intención" (English: "The Intention") is a song by Mexican musicians Christian Nodal and Peso Pluma. Released on 25 January 2024 through Sony Music Mexico, it was written by Nodal, Brian and Isaías Sandoval, and was produced by Nodal, Pluma, Iván Leal Reyes and Ernesto Fernández. The single is the first collaboration between the artists and serves as Nodal's foray into the subgenre of corridos tumbados.

Background
Mexican musician Christian Nodal had become one of the most prominent artists in the Latin music scene during the 2010s and 2020s, gaining attraction for his unique fusion genre of traditional mariachi music with norteño, dubbed "mariacheño". His first three albums, Me Dejé Llevar (2017), Ahora (2019), and Ayayay! (2020), all entered record charts in the United States and Mexico.

A photo of both singers in a studio was posted on Instagram, with fans speculating that it would be a possible collaboration between both singers.

The former told Sony Music about Peso Pluma and about working with him: "Starting this new year fulfilling the pending dream of two kids who started in this for the love of music, seeking to express in lyrics and melodies what we wanted to say to the world, is all I can ask for. Peso Pluma belongs to a generation that wants the world to know its music, which carries the aroma of ranch, grass and gallop. We are very happy with the result of how 'La Intención' turned out for us, it is made with the intention that you love it as much as we love you."

Music video
A music video was released on the same day of the song's release, which features both singers. It was filmed in Los Angeles and was directed by Fernando Lugo.
