Just six months after Fuerza Regida debuted in the top 10 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart with Dolido Pero No Arrepentido (EP), the group sets foot in the album ranking’s upper region with Pero No Te Enamores, its eighth studio album, which debuts at No. 2 on the Aug. 10-dated list.

Pero No Te Enamores, released July 25 on Street Mob/Rancho Humilde/ Sony Music Latin, launches with 23,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. during the tracking week ending Aug. 1, according to Luminate. Most of the 15-track set’s first week total is powered by streaming activity equating to 30.5 million official on-demand U.S. streams for the album’s songs. The album also bows at No. 19 on the all-genre Top Streaming Albums chart, where it ranks as the only Latin album debut of the week. It’s one of two Latin sets in the top 20, behind Peso Pluma’s Éxodo, which lifts 13-11 after its No. 3 debut in July.

Trending on Billboard

On Top Latin Albums, one unit equals one album sale, 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams for a song on the album.

With Pero No Te Enamores, Fuerza Regida ties regional Mexican music with contrasting genres such as jersey club, Latin rhythmic, pop, dance and drill in collaborations that include Major Lazer and Alok, Maluma with Gordo, Afrojack and Bellakath. The album was also produced by Afrojack, Alok, Gordo and Major Lazer.

Further, as the album debuts at No. 2, Fuerza Regida banks its seventh top 10 and its second No. 2 start, after Pa Las Baby’s y Belikeada (November 2023), which landed at the summit in its 26th week where it held for three consecutive weeks starting the April 27-dated survey. Beyond those two, the San Bernardino, Calif.-based band has collected five other top 10s dating back to 2019 when it earned its first top 10 through the No. 8-peaking Del Barrio Hasta Aquí.

Fuerza Regida becomes the second regional Mexican act to debut in the top two rankings on Top Latin Albums in 2024, trailing only Ivan Cornejo whose album Mirada bowed at No. 1 on last week’s chart (dated Aug. 3). Notably, only two other acts of any genre have debuted that high this year, both female pop artists: Kali Uchis with Orquídeas and Shakira with Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran, both which launched at No. 1 on the Jan. 27 and the April 6-dated tallies, respectively.

Elsewhere, Pero No Te Enamores starts at No. 25 on the overall Billboard 200 tally, for the group’s fifth chart entry.

As Pero No Te Enamores arrives, eight of the project’s cuts debut on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart, giving Fuerza Regida a total of 46 career visits on the airplay-, streaming- and digital sales-blended list. That said, the Mexican-American act enters an exclusive group of regional Mexican bands with as many or more entries on Hot Latin Songs since its inception in 1986. The list is led by Los Tigres del Norte with 67 total entries, followed by Intocable (57), Banda El Recodo de Cruz Lizárraga (54), Los Tucanes de Tijuana (47) and now Fuerza Regida (46).

In addition to the new arrivals on Hot Latin Songs, “Tu Name,” the first single from Fuerza’s Dolido Pero No Arrepentido (EP) holds at No. 6 for a fifth week, after the song reached No. 2 high in March. Here’s the rundown of Fuerza Regida’s simultaneous songs on the current Hot Latin Songs chart:

  • No. 5, “Nel” (debut)
  • No. 6, “Tu Name”
  • No.12, “Pero No Te Enamores” (debut)
  • No. 24, “TUQLO” (debut)
  • No. 27, “Secreto Victoria” (debut)
  • No. 32, “Sofia,” with Major Lazer & Alok, (debut)
  • No. 40, “Kylie” (debut)
  • No. 41, “Bella” (debut)
  • No. 42, “Valeria,” with Maluma featuring Gordo, (debut)
