With “La Diabla,” Xavi earns his second top 10 on Hot Latin Songs, which blends airplay, digital sales, and streaming activity. The new champ joins “La Víctima” which advances 7-5 with 7.4 million official streams during the same tracking week.

Thanks to “La Diabla,” released Nov. 30 via Interscope, the record label returns to No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs for its first champ of the year. Karol G and Peso Pluma’s “Qlona” was the label’s last leader, completing a fifth week at No. 1 on the Oct. 14-dated ranking.
On a global scale, “La Diabla” takes Xavi to his highest-charting effort on Billboard Global Excl. U.S., peaking at No. 23. While the track dips 32-33 on Billboard 200, “La Víctima” climbs 79-64.

“Labios Mordidos” is the third preview from Uchis’ fourth studio album Orquídeas, the all-Spanish-language set due Jan. 12. The Colombian now repays the favor, after “Me Tengo Que Ir” — from Karol G’s No. 1 album Mañana Será Bonito (Bichota Season) — placed the pair at No. 19 on Hot Latin Songs last August.
“Labios Mordidos” which translates to “Bitten Lips,” arrives at No. 10 on the strength of streaming activity. The song logged 5.6 million official U.S. streams on latest tracking week of Nov. 24-30, according to Luminate. The seven-figure sum sparks a No. 9 start on the Latin Streaming Songs chart.
Further, “Labios” also begins with 500 downloads sold in the same period, enough for a No. 3 arrival on Latin Digital Song Sales.
With “Labios,” Uchis ups her career top 10 count on Hot Latin Songs to two and her first equal-billed top 10 debut. The new top 10 follows the eight-week ruler “Telepatía” (2021). The ranking blends weekly streaming, sales, and radio airplay data.
Karol, meanwhile, collects her 25th top 10, extending her second-most among women, trailing only Shakira who leads with 35 top 10s. Plus, as“Labios” debuts on the upper tier, la bichota captures her fifth all-women pair-up top 10 debut, the most by a woman in the history of Hot Latin Songs, which dates to 1986. Only one other female pair has racked up a top 10 launch without Karol G as one of the collaborators, Becky G and Natti Natasha with “Sin Pijama” in May 2018.
Here’s the full list of top 10 debuts by two co-billed women:
Debut Date, Debut Position, Title, ArtistMay 5, 2018, 10, “Sin Pijama,” Becky G & Natti NatashaNov. 23, 2019, No. 1, “Tusa,” Karol G & Nicki MinajApril 10, 2021, No. 9, “El Makinon,” Karol G & Mariah AngeliqFeb. 26, 2022, No. 1, “MAMIII,” Becky G & Karol GMarch 11, No. 1, “TQG,” Karol G & ShakiraDec. 9, No. 10, “Labios Mordidos,” Kali Uchis & Karol G
Elsewhere, “Labios” gives Uchis her second all-Spanish-language entry on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100, at No. 97. For Karol, it becomes her 29th career entry – still the most for a Latin female artist with all-Spanish-language songs.

“Así Es La Vida” leads Tropical Airplay with a 14% improvement in audience impressions, to 4.8 million, earned in the U.S. in the week ending Nov. 30, according to Luminate.
The song was released Sept. 28 via Sony Music Latin and lands at No. 1 on Tropical Airplay in its ninth week. It unseats Chayanne’s “Bailando Bachata” from the penthouse after 15 weeks in charge, the third-most this decade and the longest-leading song in 2023.
“Así Es La Vida” propels Iglesias back to the top spot after “Bailando,” featuring Descemer Bueno and Gente de Zona, hit No. 1 in 2014. With over nine years to take over Tropical Airplay, it becomes the third-longest gap between No. 1s. Chayanne holds the second-longest span with a 15-year break between “Amor Inmortal” (2008) and “Bailando Bachata” (August 5-dated list). Jennifer Lopez continues to lead with the longest-break between champs — both Marc Anthony collaborations — with a 17-year wait between “No Me Ames” (1999) and “Olvídame y Pega La Vuelta” (2016).
Thanks to the new champ, Iglesias collects his eighth No. 1 on Tropical Airplay. Here’s his collection:
Peak, Title, Artist, Weeks at No. 1May 31, 2003, “Para Que La Vida,” oneJune 2, 2007, “Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song),” oneDec. 19, 2009, “Gracias A Ti,” with Wisin & Yandel, oneSept. 11, 2010, “Cuando Me Enamoro,” featuring Juan Luis Guerra, sixDec. 31, 2011, “Ayer,” oneMarch 22, 2014, “El Perdedor,” featuring Marco Antonio Solis, oneJuly 5, 2014, “Bailando,” featuring Descemer Bueno & Gente De Zona, fourDec. 9, 2023, “Así Es La Vida,” with Maria Becerra
For Becerra, the new achievement gives her a second No. 1 on the tropical ranking. The Argentinian earned her No. 1 in her first chart visit through another bachata, “Te Espero,” with Prince Royce, in May 2022.
Beyond its Tropical Airplay coronation, “Vida” makes progress on the overall Latin Airplay tally, pushing 24-17.
