It’s a special first for Eslabon Armado…

The Regional Mexican group has scored its first No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart with “Te Encontré,” featuring Ulices Chaidez, as the track rises 3-1 on the June 26-dated survey.

The song, written by Chaidez, takes the lead with a 19% gain in audience impressions to 7.2 million in the week ending June 20, according to MRC Data. The Sinaloan-born artist captures his fourth No. 1.

He previously reached the top of the list with the six-week ruler “Que Bonito Es Querer,” with his band Los Plebes (starting June 30, 2018).

California-based trio Eslabon Armado meanwhile secure their first Regional Mexican Airplay No. 1 after reaching a No. 3 high with “Con Tus Besos” (September 26, 2020-dated list).

Beyond its Regional Mexican Airplay win, “Te Encontré” also pushes to the top 10 on Latin Airplay with a 12-6 surge. It grants Chaidez his fourth top 10. Eslabon claim their first top 10 on the all-Latin genre chart.

Elsewhere, “Te Encontré” sees progress on Hot Latin Songs (which blends airplay, steaming data and sales). Boosted by its airplay gain and streaming activity increase (up 4%), the tune ascends 36-30.

The band is composed of Pedro Tovar on vocals, Gabriel Hidalgo on background vocals and harmony and Brian Tovar with the bass and bajoloche.

Servando & Florentino are inviting you into their cuarto…

The Venezuelan salsa-pop duo, composed of brothers Servando and Florentino Primera, are blessing fans with an intimate “En Tu Cuarto” livestream on Sunday, one they’re calling “a new experience to tell.”

Performing their biggest hits like “Una Fan Enamorada” and “Estas Hecha Pa Mi,” Servando & Florentino will be joined by a six-member band revamping their setlist.

“We began brainstorming with our longtime producer Yasmil Marrufo and thinking of what rhythms could go with each song,” Florentino tells Billboard, saying that fans can expect to hear their songs in bolero, bossa nova, merengue, reggae, vallenato and bachata, in addition to salsa. “The process has been a lot of fun and it’s a new experience to tell.”

“En Tu Cuarto” marks the duo’s first virtual concert during the global pandemic. Prior, they toured Venezuela in December 2019, which paved the way for a promising European tour in 2020 that came to a halt because of COVID-19.

However, Servando says they have been taking advantage of the tumultuous times in a productive manner. “We found a balance between spending time with the family and work,” he says. “Musically, we’ve been composing a lot. It’s been an interesting process.”

On that note, Servando & Florentino will unveil their new single “Te Encontre” during the livestream. “We haven’t done music together in a while. In fact,” Florentino tells, “this song wasn’t meant to be for us but we recorded it anyway. The proposal is good and fresh.”

“En Tu Cuarto: Servando & Florentino Livestream Concert” will take place at 7:00 p.m. ET on Sunday. General tickets cost $15 and a VIP package that includes a virtual party costs $50. For more information, visit here.
