Gloria Estefan Scores Second No. 1 This Year on Latin Airplay Chart With ‘La Vecina (No Sé Na’)’

Gloria Estefan banks her 13th No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart with “La Vecina (No Se Na’),” which rises a spot on the survey dated Sept. 27. The song is the second single to land at the summit on the overall Latin Airplay chart from her album, Raíces, after the title track led for a week in May.

The set debuted in the top 10 on the Top Tropical Albums chart in June. “It’s both humble and incredibly emotional for me,” Estefan told Billboard upon its chart start.

Estefan first topped Latin Airplay with “Abriendo Puertas” in 1995 (nearly a year after the chart began). When “Raíces” reached No. 1, she became the seventh artist with leaders in the ‘90s, 2000s, ‘10s and ‘20s, joining Marc Anthony, Alejandro Fernández, Enrique Iglesias, Jennifer López, Ricky Martin and Shakira.

The genre legend earns multiple Latin Airplay leaders in a single year for the first time since 2000. She also doubled up in 1997.

“La Vecina (No Se Na’)” drew 9.8 million audience impressions, up 31%, Sept. 12-18, according to Luminate. The song also adds an eighth week at No. 1 on Tropical Airplay.

La Arrolladora Banda El Limón’s 20th Leader: “It Fills Us With Pride”

On the Regional Mexican Airplay chart, La Arrolladora Banda El Limón de René Camacho claims its 20th leader as “Aunque Tiren Hate” lifts 2-1.

“It fills us with pride to know that our music has become part of so many people’s stories,” the group’s Don René Camacho tells Billboard. “These songs are not just melodies, but memories, feelings and moments that have marked important stages in their lives.”

The group becomes the fourth act with 20 or more No. 1s since Regional Mexican Airplay began in 1994. Calibre 50 holds the record with 27, followed by Banda MS de Sergio Lizárraga and Intocable, each with 21.

“Aunque Tiren Hate” totaled 8.3 million in audience during the tracking period, a 33% gain. The song also surges 7-2 on the overall Latin Airplay chart, marking the group’s highest position since 2013.

“Thank you for opening the doors of your hearts to us,” Camacho directly nods to the band’s fans, “and for keeping our music alive, transcending generations and borders.”

Maluma Bounds With ‘Bronceador’

Marking another airplay coronation, Maluma scores his second No. 1 this year, and 14th overall, on Latin Pop Airplay as “Bronceador” bumps 2-1. The Mad Musick, Ily Wonder and Los Jaycobz-produced track, whose title translates to “suntan lotion,” is the second single, and chart-topper, from Maluma’s forthcoming set, +Pretty +Dirty.

The song advances via a 14% gain to 6.8 million in audience. It also posts a new high on Latin Airplay (9-5).
