Peso in My Pocket is the nineteenth and final studio album by American country music artist Toby Keith. Released on October 15, 2021, by Show Dog-Universal Music, it was Keith’s final album to be released before his death in February 2024.
Content
The album was Keith's first new studio album since 35 MPH Town in 2015. He began writing for the album at a house he owned in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico during the COVID-19 pandemic. After receiving calls for new music from "radio honchos", he decided to compile a new album. The album's lead single is "Old School", co-written by country singer Maren Morris and her then-husband, Ryan Hurd.
Critical reception
The album received four out of five stars from AllMusic, whose reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote that "Lively, funny, and brawny in a way he hasn't been since his hot streak in the 2000s, Peso in My Pocket is filled with songs so lean that it takes a moment to realize that Keith covers a lot of musical ground here."
