“Being No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay is a dream,” Uribe tells Billboard. “I let life surprise me. I am a man of short dreams and let in these gifts from God. It’s also a gift from all my fans.”
For the Nov. 15-21 tracking week, “Si Ya Me Voy,” released via Mano de Obra, earned 6.5 million audience impressions in the U.S., according to Luminate, down 6% from the week prior. Despite that dip in impressions, the single still registered enough audience to land atop Regional Mexican Airplay. It sends Eden Muñoz’s “Traigo Saldo y Ganas de Rogar” to No. 3, after the latter’s one-week reign, with a 20% decline, to 6.1 million impressions.

“Si Ya Me Voy” becomes Uribe’s first single as a soloist, unaccompanied by any other act. The singer-songwriter scored his first ruler when “Si Ya Hiciste Mal,” with Luis R. Conriquez, ruled for one week in November 2022. It marked his first No. 1 on any Billboard chart.
“I know there are people that are just discovering my music, learning about this guy who sings of heartbreak and love. Grateful for my team, for all of those who listen to my music and request my songs to radio. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, I am here for you. How I always say, ‘¡repítelo!’”
Previously, “Te La Debo,” with Edwin Luna y La Trakalosa de Monterrey, took the Colombian to a No. 5 high in July. In sum, with the new champ, Uribe has placed five top 10s, encompassing his complete Regional Mexican Airplay career.
Further, Uribe becomes just the fifth soloist to secure a No. 1 on Regional Mexican Airplay in 2024. He follows Eden Muñoz and Xavi, who both placed three champs, Pepe Aguilar, two, and Gerardo Ortiz, one No. 1 this year.
Beyond the new No. 1, “Si Ya Me Voy” holds steady at its No. 5 high on the overall Latin Airplay chart, continuing as Uribe’s highest charting song to date.
In addition to the new No. 1, Uribe is celebrating his recent Grammy award nomination for best música Mexicana album.
Rauw Alejandro has much to celebrate this week as Cosa Nuestra, his fifth studio album, debuts at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums and Latin Rhythm Albums charts (dated Nov. 30). The set also launches at No. 6 on the overall Billboard 200, marking his highest charting set, and first top 10, among five career entries. Plus, the complete set pours onto the Hot Latin Songs chart.

Cosa Nuestra was released Nov. 15 via Duars/Sony Music Latin. The 18-track effort, an amalgam of Latin rhythmic, salsa and pop songs, invites big names into the mix, with Pharrell Williams, Romeo Santos, Laura Pausini and Bad Bunny, while Timbaland is one of six producers on the James Brown-sampling “Sexxxmachine.”
The album earns Rauw Alejandro his second No. 1 –and seventh straight top 10– on Top Latin Albums and Latin Rhythm Albums charts, after Vice Versa gave the Puerto Rican a first No. 1 (21,000 equivalent album units earned in its first week in the U.S. in 2021, according to Luminate).
Trending on Billboard
Cosa Nuestra launches with 67,000 equivalent album units in its first week (ending Nov. 21), the artist’s largest week by units earned. Of that sum, traditional album sales contribute 1,000, streaming activity comprises 66,000 units, while the remaining negligible number of units stem from track-equivalent album units.
One unit equals to 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.
Biggest Streaming Week for a Latin Album in 2024: Cosa Nuestra generated 66,000 in streaming equivalent album units in its first week, which equates to 87.7 million on-demand official streams of the set’s songs, marking the biggest streaming week for any Latin album in 2024. It surpasses the 87.5 million generated by the first full chart tracking week of Peso Pluma’s Éxodo (July 6 chart).
Second-Largest Week for a Latin Album in 2024: As Cosa Nuestra opens with 67,000 units, it yields the second largest weekly sum for a Latin album in 2024, after Kali Uchis’ Orquídeas opened at No. 1 on Top Latin Albums with 69,000 units.
Third-Highest Charting Latin Album on the Billboard 200 in 2024: Cosa Nuestra marks the third-highest charting Latin album on the overall Billboard 200 this year, following the debut frames of Kali Uchis’ Orquídeas (No. 2 in January) and Peso Pluma’s Éxodo (No. 5 in July). On the Billboard 200, Rauw Alejandro secures his highest charting performance among five career entries. Previously, the Puerto Rican reached a No. 17 high through Vice Versa in 2021.
It’s a Hot Latin Songs Splash: As Cosa Nuestra arrives, the complete album pours onto the Hot Latin Songs chart, which combines streaming data, digital sales and radio airplay into its formula. Out of those, 15 songs debut while three re-enter the multi-metric tally, including leading single “Touching The Sky” at No. 38, after its previous No. 22 high in June.
The album also yields five top 10s debuts with “Que Pasaría…,” with Bad Bunny, leading the pack at No. 2. The latter is also the album’s most-streamed song for the week, with 12 million official U.S. streams, enough for a No. 25 start on the overall Streaming Songs chart and a subsequent No. 2 debut on Latin Streaming Songs. The song likewise becomes the most sold track of the week, with 1,000 downloads sold and a No. 1 debut on Latin Digital Song Sales.
Here’s the full review of those cuts:
No. 2, “Que Pasaría…,” with Bad Bunny (debut)No. 3, “Khe?” with Romeo Santos (debut)No. 6, “Tú Con Él” (debut)No. 7, “Se Fue,” with Laura Pausini (debut)No. 8, “Revolu,” with Feid (debut)No. 11, “Déjame Entrar” (re-entry)No. 12, “Ni Me Conozco” (debut)No. 14, “Baja Pa’ Acé,” with Alexis y Fido (debut)No. 15, “Committed,” with Pharrell Williams (debut)No. 16, “Espresso Martini,” with Marconi Impara & Yan Block (debut)No. 18, “Amar de Nuevo” (debut)No. 20, “Cosa Nuestra” (debut)No. 24, “Mil Mujeres” (debut)No. 26, “IL Capo”No. 29, “2:12 AM,” with Latin MafiaNo. 30, “Pasaporte,” with Mr. Naisgai (re-entry)No. 38, “Touching The Sky” (re-entry)No. 40, “Sexxxmachine”
While “Que Pasaría…,” with Bad Bunny, is the album’s most-sold and streamed track, “Tú Con Él,” a faithful rendition of Frankie Ruiz’s ‘80s gem, stretched globally as Rauw Alejandro performed the song at the Global Citizen Festival.
While the late salsa icon died in 1998, he scored a Billboard chart entry earlier in 2024. Victor Manuelle’s “Otra Noche Más” includes Ruiz’s vocals from his 1989 song “Deseándote,” and gave him featured artist billing. The track reached No. 3 on Tropical Airplay and a No. 15 on the overall Latin Airplay chart.

“+57,” released Nov. 8 via Bichota/Interscope/ICLG, breaks into the top five largely based on streaming activity after its first full week of activity. The song — which drew attention for controversial lyrics — generated 8.3 million official streams in the U.S., according to Luminate, during its Nov. 8-14 tracking period. That figure sum prompts a No. 3 start on Latin Streaming Songs, where J Balvin collects his 32nd top 10 while Karol, her 29th, both trailing Bad Bunny’s robust 81 top 10s on his streaming account, the most overall since the tally launched in 2013.

With “+57’s” high debut on Hot Latin Songs, which combines streaming data, digital sales and airplay into its formula, Ovy On The Drums, Ryan Castro and Blessd achieve career milestones as each secure their first top 10 on the multi-metric tally.
Colombian producer Ovy neared the top 10 through another Karol G collab, “Cairo,” which reached No. 11 high in December 2022. Castro and Blessd, each one reached No. 12 high prior: the former through his first collab with Karol G, “Una Noche En Medellín (remix)” (2023), while the latter through “Medallo,” with Justin Quiles and Lenny Tavarez (2022).
“+57” also delivers new achievements for Karol G, Feid, Balvin and Maluma. Karol nabs her 28th Hot Latin Songs top 10, still the second-most among women (behind Shakira’s 27 top10s). Feid matches the No. 4 debut of his previous entry, “Sorry 4 That Much,” for his sixth top 10. Balvin ads his 36th career top 10, and Maluma, his 16th.
But “+57’s” biggest beneficiary is DFZM. The rapper earns his first Hot Latin Songs top 10 with his first title to make the chart. Further, DFZM makes his maiden appearance on three other main charts.
On the global front, “+57” opens at No. 20 on the Billboard Global 200 chart with 46 million clicks worldwide. Meanwhile, it debuts at No. 14 on the Global Excl. U.S. with 38 million streams outside the U.S. Plus, it bows at No. 62 on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100.

Two other Colombian team-ups –by two artists in a lead role– have landed at the summit on Latin Rhythm Airplay in the 2020s decade, both through Shakira collabs: while “Copa Vacía,” with Manuel Turizo, reigned for one week, “TQG,” with Karol G, dominated for seven weeks, both in 2023.
Before Ovy on The Drums’ secured his fist champ this week as an artist, he managed 12 No. 1s as songwriter and producer (mostly through Karol G songs) spanning his eight-year Billboard chart career. Among those, Becky G and Karol G’s “Mamiii” earned him his longest-leading No. 1 track on Latin Rhythm Airplay, dominating for 10 weeks in 2022.
Elsewhere, “Mírame” holds at its No. 3 high on the overall Latin Airplay chart, Ovy’s highest-charting entry and first top 10 there.
