Eden Muñoz notches his fifth consecutive No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart, and ninth overall, as “Lejos Estamos Mejor” lifts 2-1 on the ranking dated Aug. 30. It marks the singer-songwriter’s third straight No. 1 in 2025.

“A No. 1 on Billboard, along with this great song, is definitely a big career achievement,” Muñoz tells Billboard. “I’m happy because we can say that ‘Lejos Estamos Mejor’ has come to stay in the hearts of our people. Grateful to God, the team, and all those who connected with the song.”

“Lejos Estamos Mejor” is the title track and second song from Muñoz’s Lejos Estamos Mejor EP (released via Sony Music Latin), after “Mi Primer Día Sin Ti” crowned Regional Mexican Airplay for one week in May. “Lejos” rises to No. 1 with 8.1 million audience impressions earned in the United States in the tracking week of Aug. 15-21, according to Luminate. For its coronation, the song surged 17% in impressions compared the prior week.
