There is a new face on Billboard’s Tropical Airplay chart: Christopher Comstock, better known as Marshmello, makes his first chart visit with “El Merengue,” with Manuel Turizo, as the song debuts at No. 4 on the March 18-dated ranking. It also becomes the EDM music producer and DJ’s first top 10. Colombian Turizo claims his third straight top 10.
“El Merengue” is a tropical tune peppered with electronic beats and was released March 3 via Joytime Collective/Sony Music Latin. It starts with 6 million in audience impressions earned in the U.S. during the March 3-9 tracking week, according to Luminate.
The song is the first pair-up by the electronic DJ and Turizo. The latter previously spent 12 weeks at No. 1 on Tropical Airplay (starting the August 6, 2022-dated list) with his first official tropical attempt, “La Bachata.” Prior to “La Bachata” Turizo secured a first No. 1 through his featured turn on Piso 21’s “Déjala Que Vuelva” (two weeks at No. 1, 2021), when Tropical Airplay was a station-based 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. Timberlake spent five weeks in the top 10 since January through his Romeo Santos three-week champ collab, “Sin Fin,” which debuted and peaked at No. 1 last Sept. Lil Jon, meanwhile, completed three weeks in the top 10 this year through “Let’s Get Crazy,” his partnership with Don Omar. 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. Turizo concurrently scores his highest start there after the No. 25 debut of “La Nota,” with Myke Towers and Rauw Alejandro, in Oct. 2020 (the song later reached No. 1, in Jan. 2021). In total, the Colombian singer-songwriter has landed nine top 10s there, with five of those reaching No. 1.
Elsewhere on Latin charts, “El Merengue” makes its No. 9 debut on Latin Digital Song Sales; a first chart visit and top 10 for Marshmello there.
Further, Turizo makes his debut on the Dance charts as “Merengue” debuts at No. 6 on Hot Dance/ Electronic Songs with 2.7 million U.S. clicks logged in its first tracking week plus 500 downloads.
All charts (dated March 18) will refresh on Billboard.com tomorrow (March 14).
Emilia, Big One and Callejero Fino hold at No. 1 on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 for a second frame as “En La Intimidad” rules the March 4-dated chart. The song, released Feb. 1 through Fifty One, debuted at No. 9 and landed at the summit in its third week (chart dated Feb. 25).
Karol G and Shakira score their career-high debut as “TQG” arrives at No. 2. The song, which becomes the Hot Shot Debut of the week, is the fifth single from Karol G’s latest album Mañana Será Bonito, which debuted at No. 1 on the overall Billboard 200 chart, Top Latin Albums and Latin Rhythm Albums charts (dated March 11). The track concurrently debuted at No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs in the same period.
Further, TINI’s “Cupido” moves up the ranking with a 6-3 climb. It’s the closest she’s been to the top since “La Triple T” reached No. 1 in its second frame, where it remained for five weeks starting on the May 14-dated tally.
Back to Shakira, her Bizarrap collab “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53” dips 2-4 after its four-week run at No. 1 (Jan. 21-Feb. 11). Meanwhile, BM’s “M. A (Mejores Amigos)” holds steady at No. 5 for a third week.
Elsewhere, 16-year-old Camilo Villaruel, known by his stage name Milo J, has the Greatest Gainer of the week as “Rara Vez” rallies 61-17, a 44-position trek. It’s the closest the Argentinian rapper has gotten to the top as his “Milagrosa” rises to its new No. 61 peak also on the current chart. “Rara” propels to the top 20 mainly supported by its popularity on TikTok, where the song has generated more than 31,000 videos.
Further, Miranda! and Emilia each add a new chart entry with their collab “Uno Los Dos,” at No. 28.
The week brings four other debuts, starting with The Weeknd and Ariana Grande’s “Die for You” at No. 63, followed by Sebastian Yatra’s “Una Noche Sin Pensar” at No. 70, Sech’s “29 de June” at No 87, and Camilo and Camila Cabello’s “Ambulancia” at No. 88.
Bad Bunny has scored his tenth music video to hit one billion views on YouTube. One of Bunny’s earliest hits, 2016 trap anthem “Soy Peor” was one of the songs that helped put him on the map. The track — produced by the artist himself — peaked at No. 19 on Billboard‘s Hot Latin Songs chart.
The official visual for the song is Bunny’s tenth video as lead, featured artist, or collaborator to achieve this milestone. Elsewhere on YouTube, the chart-topping artist also has presence on the platform’s U.S. Top Songs chart thanks to the the swooning “Ojitos Lindos” video, which rises to No. 25 as “Titi Me Preguntó” takes No. 4 and his collaboration with Arcángel “La Jumpa” comes in at No. 81. Bad Bunny takes No. 2 on U.S. Top Artists and No. 5 on Global Top Artists.
Since “Soy Peor,” Bunny has only catapulted to global success with albums YHLQMDLG, Las Que No Iban a Salir, El Último Tour del Mundo and Un Verano Sin Ti. The latter two of those debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, making him the only artist to top the tally with a Spanish-language album — not once, but twice.
Most recently, Bunny’s Un Verano Sin Ti won the IFPI Global Album Award, becoming the first Latin artist to ever win an IFPI global award, according to the organization. The set spent a total of 13 non-consecutive weeks atop the Billboard 200 and became the first Spanish-language album to be nominated for album of the year at the Grammy Awards.
Revisit “Soy Peor” below.
The sunny and lighthearted “Mientras Me Curo Del Cora (While My Heart Heals)” opens Karol G‘s highly anticipated new album Mañana Será Bonito, out today (Feb. 24).
Powered by a disarming, joyous whistle, her stripped-down vocals take center stage in this opening track. “Give me time/ I’m not at my best moment, but I’ll get better little by little/ Today, I’m down but tomorrow will be prettier,” she sings. Time was what Karol G needed to heal from heartbreak. Now, she’s entered a new era that’s marked by a renewed sense of freedom and empowerment.
“Mientras Me Curo” serves as Karol’s introduction to the set, but don’t be tricked by its simplicity in terms of production. In fact, the rest of the tracks on the album are quite the opposite — packed with fast-paced verses, raw and sensual lyrics with dembow, regional Mexican and reggaetón powering the beats. Along the way, she tapped a few fellow hitmakers for star-studded collaborations, including Shakira on “TQG,” “Dañamos La Amistad” with Sech and “Pero Tú” with Quevedo. The set also includes previously released collaborations with Romeo Santos (“X Si Volvemos), Ovy on the Drums (“Cairo”) and Maldy (“Gatubela”).
The highly awaited collab with Shak finds the two Colombianas in a sultry music video, confirming once more that there’s no messing with them (and their hearts). Meanwhile, on the simmering reggaetón track “Pero Tú,” the Medellín singer continues to cultivate the allusions of passion, set against pensive piano chords and an irresistible rhythm. This time, Karol is armed with a hypnotic coo like that of a siren, which captures Quevedo as a love interest.
Mañana Será Bonito is Karol’s fourth studio album, and it follows her 2021 Grammy-nominated KG0516, which scored Karol her first No. 1 on Billboard‘s Top Latin Albums. The set earned the biggest week for a Latin album by a woman since Shakira‘s 2017 El Dorado.
Below, check out all the collaborations on the set ranked:
“Cairo” feat. Ovy on the Drums

On her new album’s penultimate track, Karol G continues to explore her provocative wanderlust, and “Cairo” sets the stage for a too-hot-to-handle escapade in the desert capital. Propelled by the undulating reggaetón beats of Ovy on the Drums, her long-time producer, Karol G confesses her newfound emotions on a fling. Near the end of the track, “Cairo” transitions into an Ibiza-leaning number to get lost to. The song debuted at No. 89 on the Billboard Global 200 chart on December 3, 2022, becoming Ovy on the Drums’ first entry on the chart.
“Ojos Ferrari” feat. Justin Quiles & Angel Dior
Karol G teams up with veteran singer-songwriter Justin Quiles and emerging artist Angel Dior to deliver the ultimate party anthem. The bouncy and dizzying dembow track “Ojos Ferrari” is a certified club banger, where the three sing about living it up. “Hoy se bebe/ Hoy se fuma/ Hoy se jode,” they chant on the Ovy on the Drums-produced song.
“Kármika” feat. Bad Gyal & Sean Paul
“Kármika” finds the Colombian artist joined by two generations of artists and of two different cultures: Sean Paul of Jamaica and Bad Gyal of Spain. Instead of having them sing a perrero tune, Karol delivers a sensual dancehall track — best fitting with Paul’s and Gyal’s signature sound. Telling the story from the perspective of a woman who doesn’t want any commitment, but still wants to spend time with that special person, Karol sings about “becoming another person when she’s drinking” and “only wanting casual sex” because she’s alone. “I know I’m a bad boy for you,” sings Sean Paul, who assures he’s different than the rest of the boys.
“Dañamos La Amistad” feat. Sech
“Chingué con mi amigo y no me explico/ dañamos la amistad pero rico/ y ahora estoy pensándote,” seductively croons the Colombian femme fatale (“I f–ked my friend and I can’t explain it/ we damaged the friendship but deliciously / and now I’m thinking about you”). On her Sech collaboration, the pair detail a steamy night when two friends become lovers, after a night of rocking and partying until the wee hours, with the Panamanian singer delivering his utmost passionate flow that spills over. It’s a risky and adventurous trope that’s also relatable, set against the hard-hitting beats of Sech himself and his producer Dímelo Flow.
“Mañana Será Bonito” feat. Carla Morrison

The closing and title track on the set finds Mexican singer-songwriter Carla Morrison exploring the infectious reggaetón beats of Karol G. On the track, the two artists deliver a feel-good track filled with positive lyrics and manifestations, again, to heal a heartbreak. The track tells the story of a girl who gave it all for love but her trust was broken. Then, there’s Karol and Carla reminding every heart-broken person that “tomorrow will be beautiful” and no one can “take way their light.” “In life, we can’t go back and recuperate the time wasted/ But yes, we can start brand new,” says Karol toward the end of the track.
“Gatúbela” feat. Maldy
Like this album, “Gatúbela” — released in August — marked a new chapter for Karol G. Unveiling her fiery red hair for the first time with this song, for which she reeled in Latin urban pioneer Maldy, “Gatúbela” is an infectious old-school reggaetón jam laced with intense perreo beats. Produced by DJ MAFF, Karol G knows exactly what she want. “I’m not with anyone but I’m hooked/ I’m elevated, I feel like a Catwoman/ It feels good when he moves my panties to the side/ It feels good when you kiss me down there,” she confesses bluntly. Maldy’s spit-fire verses match the track’s fast-paced beat, which hooks you instantly.
“Pero Tú” feat. Quevedo
Karol G is a riveting storyteller — she simply knows how to spellbind her listeners. On the simmering reggaetón cut “Pero Tú,” the singer continues to cultivate allusions to passion, set against pensive piano chords and an irresistible rhythm. This time, Karol is armed with a breathy hypnotic coo like that of a siren, which captures Quevedo as a love interest. Buoyed by his deep growl, the Spanish rapper responds with a wicked flow to meet his match. His poetic prowess details her as a beaming — no, sizzling — conquest, making this collaboration one of the lustiest songs in the game.
“TQG” feat. Shakira
On the heels of “MAMIII” (Becky G, Karol G) and “BZRP Music Session, Vol. 53” (Bizarrap, Shakira) — two very empowering breakup tracks — Karol G and Shakira join forces on “TQG,” short for “Te Quedó Grande.” Loosely meaning “I was too good for you,” this collab is powered by a somber, hard-hitting reggaetón beat, but packed with fierce and unapologetic lyrics about getting over an ex and successfully moving on. “It hurt me to see you with the new one, but I’m already doing my own thing,” chants Shakira. The long-awaited collab finds the two Colombianas in a sultry music video, confirming once more that there’s no messing with them (and their hearts).
“X Si Volvemos” feat. Romeo Santos

Coming in at No. 1 on our list is “X Si Volvemos” with Romeo Santos. It’s almost hard to imagine that this track could’ve been released without Santos on it, because they sound so good together. The last-minute pairing is a total departure from the opening song, “Mientras Me Curo Del Cora,” a sweet and joyous song about healing. In “X Si Volvemos,” which follows “Mientras,” Karol G’s La Bichota alter ego takes over and she’s as blunt as ever in the sultry track. “It didn’t work out, we gave it our all/ So we’re leaving, but before we leave, let’s do it one last time/ Our relationship didn’t work, but we understand each other in bed,” she declares. The pair find the perfect chemistry in this song, where Santos may not be singing his signature bachata — but his voice is, as ever, soft and sultry, perfect for this sensual song that thrives on a hypnotizing reggaetón beat.
Karol G‘s Mañana Será Bonito has arrived. The 17-track set released Friday (Feb. 24) kicks off with “Mientras Me Curo del Cora” and features collaborations with Shakira, Quevedo, Carla Morrison, Sean Paul, Sech, Bad Gyal, Justin Quiles and Angel Dior. It also includes previously released hit singles “Provenza,” “Cairo” with Ovy on the Drums, “Gatubela” featuring Maldy, and the Romeo Santos-assisted “X Si Volvemos.”

One of the most anticipated collaborations on the set was the one with Shakira, which was confirmed just days before the album dropped. The pair join forces for “TQG,” which marks the first time the Colombian superstars unite for a track. “We know what you’ve all been waiting for and here we are,” Karol G and Shakira jointly posted on social media when they shared the news with their millions of fans.
For this new album, Karol worked with producers Tainy, Finneas and Edgar Barrera although most of the tracks on the set are produced by her go-to collaborator, Ovy on the Drums.
Mañana Será Bonito is her fourth studio album and it follows her 2021 Grammy-nominated KG0516, which scored Karol her first No. 1 on Billboard‘s Top Latin Albums. The set earned the biggest week for a Latin album by a woman since Shakira‘s 2017 El Dorado.
Karol announced the new album in January with a heartfelt message that said: “Today I announce a project that I’ve dedicated so much love and time to. I just know that for me and for everyone else, Mañana Será Bonito (Tomorrow Will Be Pretty).”

The set kicked off with “Si Me Duele Que Me Duela” featuring Firme. Then, Pepe Aguilar took the stage to join Intocable for a rendition of their collaboration, “No Me Hablen de Amor.”
Following their performance, Intocable received the Excellence Award but, unlike other special award recipients such as Victor Manuelle and Ivy Queen, Intocable’s frontman Ricky Muñoz opted for a brief statement as opposed to an elaborate speech.
“Thanks so much, see you,” he said.
The 2023 Premio Lo Nuestro, which is themed “El Mundo Es Lo Nuestro” (or The World is Ours), is co-hosted by Colombian pop star Sebastian Yatra, Mexican TV presenter and actress Alejandra Espinoza, Mexican superstar Paulina Rubio, and Adrián Uribe of Univision’s late-night show De Noche Pero Sin Sueño.
Sebastián Yatra tops this year’s nominations with 10 nods including the all-genre artist of the year category. He’s closely followed by other top nominees Bad Bunny, Camilo, Becky G, and Grupo Firme, who each have nine nods; Maluma, Daddy Yankee, and Ozuna with eight each; power couple Rauw Alejandro and Rosalía tie with seven, as well as Carin León, Karol G, Carlos Vives, and J Balvin. In total, 192 artists across diverse musical backgrounds are nominated within 39 categories.
The nominations for the fan-voted Premio Lo Nuestro are based on Uforia radio airplay during the eligibility period of Oct. 1, 2021 through Sept. 30, 2022. Streaming counts and the assessment of a committee of music and entertainment experts also factor in this list.
Looking like a total goddess in gold, Ivy Queen gave a reggaeton master class at Thursday’s (Feb. 23) Premio Lo Nuestro. Ivy Queen performed a medley of her biggest hits, including “Te He Querido Te He Llorado,” “Que Lloren” and “Quiero Bailar,” surrounded by a troupe of women and men dancers.
Following her performance, Ivy Queen received the special Premio Lo Nuestro Legado Musical, making history as the first woman to get that honor.
“Thank you so much,” she said, visibly emotional. “I know what it is to get up without strength. I know what it is to hear someone tell you no, or that a type of music isn’t for you because you have ovaries. But I also heard a voice that told me, ‘don’t give up, Caballota.’ I celebrate this award with those that know me, that make me visible. And like Celia Cruz, an artist that’s inspired me, once said, as long as I breathe and aspire, I take on the role to elevate women with elegance. This is to all women who are filled with courage when they hear my music.”

Argentinians Luck Ra and Ke Personajes score their first leader on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 chart, as “Ya No Vuelvas,” with La K’Onga, ascends 2-1 on the Feb. 18-dated ranking.
While Luck Ra bests his previous peak of No. 11 with “Te Mentiría,” with Rusherking (May 2022), Ke Personajes also add new career achievements as two of their total six entries reach new highs: as mentioned, “Ya No Vuelvas” leads the chart, while “Si No Te Tengo/ Angel/ Aquello Que Pasó” peaks at No. 33. The group also scores two new debuts on the current chart: “Otro Día Más,” featuring La Contra, at No. 93 and “Adiós Amor, Oye Mujer” at No. 99. Meanwhile, the song is the second leader for Argentinian trio La K’onga after “Universo Paralelo,” featuring Nahuel Pensi, ruled for one week in March 2022.
Back in the top 10, as “Ya No Vuelvas” takes the lead, it sends Bizarrap and Shakira’s “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53″ to the runner-up slot after four consecutive weeks in charge.
Big One and Callejero Fino claim their highest ranking as “En La Intimidad,” with Emilia, rallies 9-2 in its third week. Plus, TINI, La Joaqui and Steve Aoki’s “Muñecas” dips 3-4, and BM’s “M.A (Mejores Amigos)” jumps 6-5. Further, Lil Cake and Migrantes’ “Mercho” featuring Nico Vadi, climbs 10-6, while Yandel notches his first top 10 as “Yandel 150,” with Feid, climbs 13-10.
The Greatest Gainer honors of the week goes to Luck Ra, La T Y La M and Rusherking’s “Quiero Creer” with a 38-13 surge.
TINI’s “Cupido” takes the week’s Hot Shot Debut at No. 52. She adds a 28th career entry, the third-most for a female act behind Maria Becerra’s 38 total entries and and Karol G’s 29. Among all acts, Bad Bunny continues in the lead with 55 entries on his account.
Finally, three other songs debut this week, starting with Karol G and Romeo Santos’ “X Si Volvemos” at No. 65, Alan Gomez, Callejero Fino, Javiielo, and Julianno Sosa’s “Mío No Tuyo” at No. 88, and Quevedo’s “Wanda” at No. 90.

The “Rockero Stage” will feature sets by artists such as Natalia Lafourcade, La Ley, Ska-P, Aterciopelados and Maldita Vecindad. The “Las Clásicas Stage” roster includes Alejandro Fernández, Pepe Aguilar, Los Tucanes de Tijuana and Conjunto Primavera. Meanwhile, the “Te Gusta El Pop?” stage’s lineup includes Reik, Camila, Belinda, Emmanuel and Jesse & Joy. Returning artists from last year include Café Tacvba, Hombres G, Enanitos Verdes, Ramon Ayala and Banda El Recodo.
Last year, the inaugural Bésame Mucho festival edition sold out in 12 minutes, according to sources, when the 2000s-inspired lineup was announced. At the actual event, thousands of fans had to sprint across the stadium’s parking lot to catch whichever act was on their must-see list. The literal back-to-back sets were 35-50 minutes in length, which fans weren’t too crazy about, especially with technical difficulties that impacted the sound leaving artists to deal with the situation onstage and, ultimately, left them with a shorter set. This year’s lineup isn’t as packed as last year, which could lead to more efficient set transitions and overall production quality.
Tickets for Bésame Mucho 2023 will go on sale Friday, Feb. 24 at 10am PT.
