Jayma and Dalex's first album, "Gravedad", was released in October 2015. It featured collaborations with Justin Quiles, Jory Boy and Pusho.[8] [9]

Solo career - EPs, Climaxxx, and Unisex

In 2017, Jayma y Dalex split and Dalex began his solo career and was signed by Rich Music.[7] His first debut single, "Puesto Pal Millón" was released in 2018, with Sech, Myke Towers, Justin Quiles, Arcángel, and Alex Rose joining him on the remix after the single gained popularity .[7] This led to Dalex releasing two EPs in 2018: "License to Trap" and "La Nueva Ola" with features like Rauw Alejandro, Sech, Lyanno, and Justin Quiles.

In 2018 he released the single "Pa Mi" with Rafa Pabön, which peaked inside the top three on the streaming charts in six countries and at number one in 12 other countries.[7] This led to the release of "Pa Mi (Remix)" which featured Cazzu, Sech, Feid, Khea, and Lenny Tavárez and became Dalex's first Billboard charting song.[10]

He released his first studio album "Climaxxx" in 2019 which features Nicky Jam, Justin Quiles, Rauw Alejandro, and Lyanno.[11] "Climaxxx" debuted at number 20 on the Global Streaming list and in the Top 20 Latin Rhythms Albums rankings.[12] In June, he released "Cuaderno," a popular video and song that also featured Nicky Jam, Sech, Justin Quiles, Feid, Lenny Tavárez, and Rafa Pabon. In the same year, he collaborated on the EP “The Academy” with fellow Rich Music labelmates Sech, Justin Quiles, along with promising artists Feid, Lenny Tavárez, and Dímelo Flow.[13] He released the Modo Avión mixtape in 2020.

"Unisex", Dalex's second LP, was released in 2021. The album featured the songs "Máquina del Tiempo" with Rauw Alejandro, and "XLEY," with one of his favorite artists, Trey Songz. The album also features Jay Wheeler, Zion y Lennox, and Ryan Castro.[14]
