Bad Bunny’s winning streak continues on radio…
The 27-year-old Puerto Rican rapper, singer and songwriter has reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart dated October 23 with the single, “Volvi,” with Aventura.
The 4-1 jump of the single is powered by an 8% increase in audience impressions, to 10.1 million, earned in the U.S. in the week ending October 17, according to MRC Data.
The Latin Airplay win arrives after “Volvi’s” one-week coronation on the all-metric (airplay, sales and streaming) Hot Latin Songs chart on the August 21-dated tally — Aventura’s first win since “Dile Al Amor’s” nine-week rule in 2010. For Bad Bunny, the tune’s lead followed the five-week reign of “Yonaguni” just two months prior (starting on the June 19-dated list).
Back on Latin Airplay, the new leader gives Aventura its fourth No. 1. The Dominican group first led with “Por Un Segundo” in 2009. In between, it earned two other champs: nine-week ruler “Dile Al Amor” (2010) and “Inmortal” (one week, June 2019).
Bad Bunny, meanwhile, scores his 16th Latin Airplay No. 1, dating back to his first as a featured act on Becky G’s “Mayores” in 2018. His longest-winning track arrived later in the year as “Mia,” featuring Drake, topped the ranking for six weeks starting on the Dec. 29, 2018-dated list.
Beyond Latin Airplay, “Volví” pushes back to the top 10 on Latin Digital Song Sales (14-9) after its debut at the summit in August. It concurrently reaches a new peak of No. 1 on Latin Rhythm Airplay; it’s the first time Aventura has topped the chart since “Dile al Amor” in 2010.
