Feid Scores a Career-High on Top Latin Albums With ‘Mor, No Le Temas a La Oscuridad’
Written by djfrosty on October 12, 2023
Feid captures his second top 10 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart — and highest charting release yet — with his latest set Mor, No Le Temas a La Oscuridad, which debuts at No. 4 on the Oct. 14-dated survey.
Mor, No Le Temas a La Oscuridad launches with 20,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. during the Sept. 29-Oct. 5 tracking week, according to Luminate. It’s the biggest opening week in terms of units among Feid’s six career entries on the overall albums ranking.
On Top Latin Albums, an equivalent album unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album (track equivalent album units, TEA), or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album (streaming equivalent album units, SEA).
Streaming powers most of the album’s activity, with 15,000 of the first week from the consumption method. That figure equals to 20.1 million official U.S. on-demand streams for the album’s songs in its opening week. Traditional albums sales, meanwhile, account for 5,000 units, while a negligible amount derives from track-equivalent unit.
Mor, No Le Temas gives Feid, whose off-stage name is Salomón Villada Hoyos, his second top 10 on Top Latin Albums. The album was released Sept. 28 via Universal Music Latino/UMLE. Previously, Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo: Te Pirateamos El Album peaked at No. 6 in Oct. 2022. The set held in the top 10 for 12 weeks. In between, Sixdo (EP) debuted and peaked at No. 32 last December.
Feid also nabs his highest charting album on the all-genre Billboard 200, as Mor debuts at No. 31. Plus, the album arrives at No. 3 on Latin Rhythm Albums, likewise his highest charting album there.
Mor was previewed by two songs: Feid’s first collab with Sean Paul, “Niña Bonita,” which peaked at No. 41 on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart, and “Bubalu,” with Rema, that rises 39-32. Further, “Luces de Tecno” debuts at No. 40 on the current tally.
