Chayanne returns to the top 10 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart chart for the first time in nearly six years, as “Bailando Bachata” ascends 14-10 on the July 1-dated survey. The new top 10 follows the song’s debut on the upper region on Tropical Airplay, his first since 2008 there.

“Bailando Bachata” pushes from No. 14 after a 16% jump in audience impressions, to 6.09 million, earned in the U.S. during the June 16-22 tracking week, according to Luminate. It’s week-over-week improvement –the song debuted at No. 19 (June 10-dated chart) and hits the upper region in its fourth week– takes Chayanne back to the top 10 after almost six years. He last placed a No. 10-peaking song with “Qué Me Has Hecho,” featuring Wisin, in Sept. 2017.

With “Bailando,” Chayanne captures his 20th top 10 on Latin Airplay, tying with Luis Fonsi for the eighth-most among all Latin pop acts since the list’s inception in 1994. Here’s the scoreboard:

  • 41, Enrique Iglesias
  • 26, Shakira
  • 28, Ricky Martin
  • 25, Cristian Castro
  • 22, Alejandro Fernández
  • 21, Juanes
  • 21, Luis Miguel
  • 20, Chayanne
  • 20, Luis Fonsi

Chayanne’s 20 top 10s span four decades. He first broke the top 10 barrier in 1996 with the hit “Solamente Tu Amor,” which reached No. 6 and held in the upper region for eight weeks. The Puerto Rican joins the exclusive club of artists who have achieved top 10s on Latin Airplay during the ‘90s, ‘00s, ‘10s, and ‘20s: Enrique Iglesias, Shakira, Ricky Martin and Luis Fonsi.

As mentioned, “Bailando” also takes Chayanne to new heights on Tropical Airplay as the song drives 4-3, his highest ranking since “Amor Inmortal” landed at the summit in October 2008, where it remained for five weeks.

Natti Natasha Takes-Off on Tropical Airplay Chart

Elsewhere on the Latin charts, Natti Natasha’s “La Falta Que Me Haces” debuts at No. 5 on Tropical Airplay with 5 million in audience impressions earned in the U.S. during the same tracking week.

“La Falta” was originally released April 20 as a slow-tempo tune and did not enter the charts. The new bachata version was released June 1 via Pina/Sony Music Latin and produced by the Dominican Polo Parra and written by Natti alongside Joss Favela. All versions of the song combined for tracking and charting purposes.

The No. 5 debut marks the highest start for Natti among her six total Troical Airplay appearances. It also becomes her fifth top 10, dating back to her featured role in Don Omar’s one-week champ “Dutty Love” in 2012.

Further, “La Falta” picks up speed on Latin Airplay, jumping 21-17 in its fourth week.
