NLE Choppa:Yo, what’s up? It’s NLE Choppa and this is Billboard News. Tune in for the interview right now. Let’s do it.
Tetris Kelly:It’s slut season, you declared it man.
NLE Choppa:Yes, sir, the one in the flesh.
Tetris Kelly: So listen, “Slut Me Out 2”: 20 million streams, 4 million views on YouTube, man. You having fun with it?
NLE Choppa:Man, having a lot of fun. I feel like that’s the most important part of it. If we ain’t doing that, we ain’t doing something right so yeah.
Tetris Kelly:Then, “Slut Me Out” came out two years ago, so tell me why now was the time that you was like, “I want to do a part two, I want to follow that up.”
NLE Choppa:Man what’s funny is “Slut Me Out 2” came out two years ago. I released it around, like, March and it didn’t pick up traction until December, so like, it kind of was like a little bit under the rug and then in December, out of nowhere, it just started to gain traction. It goes crazy. I feel I could never really commit to it, so I was like, “No, I want to do a No. 2,” but really commit to it and see how far I can take it because the first one went like d–n near top 10 on Billboard, so I’m trying to push this one to one.

“I’m happy and I hope this a new beginning in my career,” Díaz tells Billboard. “It’s always great to see oneself in lists such as Billboard, continuing the sound with which one started.”
Sayonara, which dropped on May 17, the first day of the tracking week, earned 7,000 equivalent album units in the U.S. in the week ending May 23, according to Luminate. The album’s opening sum is mostly driven by streaming activity. The figure equals to 9.58 million on-demand official streams for the set’s songs during the tracking week.

Units comprise album sales, track equivalent albums [TEA] and streaming equivalent albums [SEA]. Each unit equals one album sale, or 10 individual tracks sold from an album, or 3,750 ad-supported or 1,250 paid/subscription on-demand official audio and video streams generated by songs from an album.
Díaz returns to Latin Rhythm Albums for the first time since Dec. 2016, when San Juan Grand Prix, his first chart entry there, debuted and peaked at No. 4, for one week in the top 10.
Elsewhere, the Puerto Rican claims his third entry on the overall Top Latin Albums, where Sayonara launches at No. 14. While San Juan Grand Prix concurrently earned Díaz his maiden chart performance in 2016, in between Felicilandia arrived at its No. 48 high in Nov. 2021.
Only one song preceded Sayonara, “1000Canciones” with San Senra, Díaz’s second top 10: No. 10 peak in April 2023, after “A Donde Van,” with Sebastián Yatra, took him to an equal No. 10 high in Oct. 2020.
Beyond “1000Canciones,” the set’s “Gatitas Sandungueras, Vol. 1,” with Feid, opens at No. 34 on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs charts, which combines airplay, digital sales and streams. The song logged 2.3 million official U.S. streams.
