Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma continue their Billboard charts takeover as “Ella Baila Sola” debuts at No. 7 on the Regional Mexican Airplay ranking (dated May 6). The new airplay top 10 lands as the song extends its No. 1 domination for a fourth week on Hot Latin Songs.
“Ella Baila Sola,” written by Eslabon Armado’s lead singer Pedro Tovar, was released March 17 via DEL/Prajin Parlay. It’s the first single from the sad sierreño group’s album Desvelado, which dropped April 27.
The viral hit debuts in the top 10 on Regional Mexican Airplay with 4.5 million in audience impressions earned in the U.S. in the week ending April 27, according to Luminate. As “Ella Baila” bows at No. 7, it becomes Eslabon Armado’s highest start on the chart among three total entries, all top 10s. The Mexican American group placed a No. 1 through the Ulices Chaidez’ collab “Te Encontré” in June 2021. Prior, the No. 3-peaking “Con Tus Besos” earned the quartet its first top 10 in Sept. 2020.
As “Ella” arrives in the upper region, Peso Pluma captures his first top 10 on his first chart appearance. He joins six other artists who have earned a first top 10 with their maiden entries in 2023. Here’s a recap:

Notably, among the 38 tracks that have ranked in the top 10 on Regional Mexican Airplay so far in 2023, “Ella” becomes the first track to debut in the top 10.
Further, “Ella” also makes its first Latin Airplay appearance, at No. 20, the highest start for both Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma there.
Becky G and Peso Pluma add a new top 10 to their Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart count, as “Chanel” powers from No. 15 to No. 9 on the ranking dated May 6. As the pair’s first partnership advances to the upper region, Peso Pluma places seven simultaneous songs in the top 10 (and 15 across the chart), the most ever for a regional Mexican act. The septenary includes “Ella Baila Sola,” with Eslabon Armado, in its fourth consecutive week in charge.
“Chanel” advances with gains in all metrics that contribute to Hot Latin Songs: streams, sales and airplay. It registered 10.2 million official U.S. streams during the April 21-27 tracking week, according to Luminate. That sum yields a No. 42 debut on the overall Streaming Songs chart and top 10 flight on Latin Streaming Songs, where it pushes 14-10 in its second week, with a 33% increase.
Sales rose 49%, to 1,000, in the same period. That drives “Chanel” 14-6 on Latin Digital Song Sales, jumping 14-6. The song also makes progress on the radio front, up 386% to 1 million audience impressions.
Becky G adds her sixth Hot Latin Songs top 10, and her first in the region since last year’s “Mamiii,” with Karol G, became her first No. 1, having dominated for 10 weeks.
Meanwhile, 23-year-old Peso Pluma notches his seventh Hot Latin Songs top 10 – with all simultaneously in the tier. The feat is historic, as he’s the first regional Mexican artist with as many as seven top 10s in a single frame. Only one other act has charted as many or more top 10 titles together: Bad Bunny grouped between seven and nine songs in the top 10 in 27 distinct weeks in 2020-22.
Prior to Peso Pluma, among core regional Mexican acts Joan Sebastian logged the most concurrent Hot Latin Songs top 10s: four on the Aug. 1, 2015 chart.

As mentioned, Marshmello lands his first top 10 through his first foray on a Latin chart. He also becomes the third non-Spanish-language-speaking act to secure a top 10 on Tropical Airplay this year. He follows Justin Timberlake and Lil Jon.

The track peaked at No. 5 last October and held strong in the upper tier for a total of 15 weeks.
“El Merengue” also contributes to the individual Latin Airplay ledgers for Marshmello and Turizo: as the song bows at No. 14 on the all-genre ranking, it becomes Marshmello’s highest start following two English-language tracks that peaked outside the top 40 in 2018.
