“Imagínate” rules the overall Latin Airplay ranking after a 35% boost in audience impressions, to 8.4 million, earned in the U.S. during the April 11-17 tracking week, according to Luminate. The song, released Nov. 7, 2024, via Atlantic/Warner Latina, debuted at No. 48 in January, and makes its way to the top of the chart in its 17th week.

Coincidentally, both Ocean and Kapo secure their second No. 1 on the overall Latin Airplay chart. Previously, Ocean led for one week with “Amor” in June 2024. Kapo, meanwhile, replaces himself atop the list, after “Más Que Tú,” with Ozuna, reached No. 1 last week, chart dated April 19. The latter falls to No. 3 following a 15% dip in audience impressions (to 7.1 million).
The last act to replace itself at No. 1 was Grupo Firme, when the band’s “El Beneficio De La Duda” ejected its collaboration with Thalia, “Te Va a Doler” (chart dated July 2024).
“Imagínate” continues making its rounds atop two other Latin radio rankings: over on the Latin Pop Airplay chart, it holds strong at the summit for a seventh consecutive week, tying with Shakira’s “Soltera” for the most in 2025 so far. The latter has spent a total of 14 total weeks at No. 1 between 2024-25.
On Latin Rhythm Airplay, “Imagínate” rebounds to its No. 1 for a total of two nonconsecutive weeks in charge, Ocean’s sole No. 1 to date, and Kapo’s third.
Thanks to its radio draw, the song also holds steady at its No. 3 peak on the third iteration of the new Hot Latin Pop Songs chart. Plus, it also moves up on the airplay-, streaming-, and digital sales-blended Hot Latin Songs chart, where it jumps 35-32.

The impressive career of Colombian reggaeton superstar Karol G is the focus of new documentary Tomorrow Was Beautiful, which has unveiled its trailer today.
Set for release on May 8 and produced by This Machine, Interscope Films and Bichota Films, Karol G: Tomorrow Was Beautiful takes an in-depth look at Karol G’s impressive rise to fame as one of the biggest Latin musical artists of all time, and how she defied the odds along the way.

The documentary is directed by Cristina Costantini, who serves as a producer alongside R.J. Cutler, Elise Pearlstein, Trevor Smith, Kristofer Ríos, Alex Simmons, and Mariem Pérez. Mark Blatty, Margaret Yen, John Janick, and Nir Seroussi also join as Executive Producers.
Trending on Billboard
“Karol G was told her dream was too big, that she was the wrong gender, and from the wrong place, to ever be a global star,” a synopsis of the documentary notes. “But only fools bet against a Bichota.”
The film traces Karol G’s beginnings in Medellín, Colombia along her journey to international stardom, including the release of chart-topping albums such as 2023’s Mañana Será Bonito (the first all-Spanish-language album by a woman to top the Billboard 200) and its accompanying record-breaking tour.
“I told the team, ‘I have this idea. Let’s do a stadium tour,’” she remembers in the trailer. “The first stadium tour by a Latin artist in history. And everyone started like, ‘Caro, no.’” Karol G’s instinct ultimately paid off, with her 65-date trek grossing $313.3 million and selling 2.3 million tickets to become the highest-grossing Latin tour of all time by a female artist.
“Since I was a child, people told me: ‘Karol, this dream is not for you,’” she adds in the trailer. Paired with exclusive behind-the-scenes footage and in-depth interviews with Karol G and those close to her, Karol G: Tomorrow Was Beautiful traces an entire career spent defying the odds to reach dizzying new heights.
“It’s a rare look at the unique determination, raw talent, and relentless work ethic that has launched Karol G to superstardom and paved a path for future generations of Latinas,” the synopsis concludes.
Liam Gallagher has confirmed that he and brother Noel spent Easter Sunday together, marking a rare public show of unity just months before Oasis reunite onstage.
On Sunday (April 20), Liam Gallagher took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a surprising family moment: he spent Easter Sunday with his brother Noel and Noel’s two sons, Donovan and Sonny.

“So we had a BIBLICAL Easter Sunday,” Liam wrote. “Noel, Donavan and Sonny popped over to ours for a cup of tea. It was absolutely incredible to meet the young guvs. I obviously blew their minds coz I’m cool as f—. You heard it here 1st.”

The casual tea catch-up arrives just months before the first Oasis shows since the band’s 2009 split. The iconic Britpop group is due to kick off its global reunion tour this July, having announced 41 dates so far.
The shows will kick off with the first of two shows at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales, before criss-crossing the U.K. in advance of a North American run beginning August 24 in Toronto; the tour will then move on to Mexico City, South Korea, Japan, Australia and South America.
The new tour follows decades of tension between the brothers, who last performed together during Oasis’ 2009 tour before an infamous backstage blow-up in Paris led to the band’s split. Since then, both Gallaghers have pursued solo careers — Liam releasing multiple solo albums and Noel fronting the High Flying Birds.
In January, Liam responded to a fan’s dream setlist, telling them “it’s not far off,” when they asked if the unsolicited rundown was “official.” The list included band’s past setlists, including such live staples as: “Acquiesce,” “Some Might Say,” “Lyla,” “Shakermaker,” “The Hindu Times,” “Cast No Shadow,” “Slide Away,” “Supersonic,” “Morning Glory,” “Rock ‘n’ Roll Star,” “Cigarettes & Alcohol,” “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” “Live Forever” and “Champagne Supernova.”
Last month, the band announced that a film documenting the Oasis Live ’25 tour would be created and produced by BAFTA- and Oscar-nominated writer/producer/director Steven Knight (Peaky Blinders, Spencer, Dirty Pretty Things) and directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace (Meet Me in the Bathroom, Shut Up and Play the Hits). No release date has been announced as of yet.
