Bad Bunny’s ‘DtMF’ Dominates Billboard Global 200 Chart
Written by djfrosty on January 21, 2025
Bad Bunny’s “DtMF” blasts to No. 1, from No. 12, on the Billboard Global 200 chart. The song becomes the superstar’s fifth leader on the list, tying Taylor Swift for the second-most, and the most among soloists, since the survey began in September 2020. BTS leads all acts with seven No. 1s.
Bad Bunny scores five simultaneous Global 200 top 10s, all from his new LP, DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS, which ascends to No. 1 on the U.S.-based Billboard 200 albums chart. The set reigns following its first full tracking week of activity (Jan. 10-16; it was released Jan. 5).
The Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.

Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.
“DtMF” rules the Global 200 with 130.5 million streams and 3,000 sold worldwide Jan. 10-16. Bad Bunny previously hit No. 1 with “Monaco,” for a week upon its debut in October 2023; “Where She Goes” (in its debut week in June 2023); “Un x100to,” with Grupo Frontera (two weeks, May 2023); and “Dakiti,” with Jhay Cortez (now Jhayco; three, November-December 2020).
Bad Bunny also infuses the Global 200’s top 10 with “BAILE INoLVIDABLE” (10-4), “NUEVAYoL” (9-5), “VOY A LLeVARTE PA PR” (14-8) and “VeLDÁ” (22-9). With three new top 10 hits, he swells his count to 24 top 10s since the chart began. Only Drake (35) and Swift (33) have more.
Also in the Global 200’s top five, ROSÉ and Bruno Mars’ “APT.” descends to No. 2, following 11 weeks at No. 1 beginning upon its debut in November, and Lady Gaga and Mars’ “Die With a Smile” dips 2-3, following eight weeks at No. 1 beginning in September.
