The single Entre les murs was placed at number 62 on the French single charts. On January 18, 2019, Di Malonda's third mixtape Mexico followed , which reached number five on the French album charts. In the first week, the project was able to sell over 5,700 units and by March 2020 had sold over 40,000 units. With the release of his debut album Architecte on April 3, 2020, he jumped straight to the top of the French album charts . The included collaboration with Ninho Crois-moi also reached number three in the single charts. In the first week of sales, almost 9,800 units of the album were sold.
