Shakira soars in at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart (dated April 6) while the set’s “Puntería,” with Cardi B, bounds in at No. 3 on Hot Latin Songs. Plus, two other tracks launch in the latter list’s top 10.
First up is “La People II” by Peso Pluma, Tito Double P and Joel De La P, new at No. 2 on the multi-metric chart. The tripartite collab, released March 21 through Double P Records, traces its high entrance to strong streaming activity. During the March 22-28 tracking week, it generated 9.1 million official streams in the U.S., according to Luminate. The sum yields a No. 2 debut on Latin Streaming Songs, notably becoming Peso Pluma’s 18th top 10, the most for any core regional Mexican music act.
Tito Double P and Joel De La P each score their first Hot Latin Songs top 10. Both regional Mexican newcomers notched their first entry on the tally with the No. 35-peaking “Dembow Bélico,” with Luis R Conriquez, in July 2023. Tito Double P previously came closest to the top 10 through the new single’s prequel — likewise with Peso Pluma, as “La People” reached a No. 12 high last December.
Further, “La People II” captures the highest Hot Latin Songs debut in 2024 for a regional Mexican song by artists who primarily record in the genre, and the topmost such start since Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma’s “Ella Baila Sola” also premiered at No. 2 in April 2023. In between, last August, Karol G’s “Mi Ex Tenía Razón” became her first regional Mexican-focused No. 1, among eight total.
At No. 4 on Hot Latin Songs, Xavi snags his third top 10 with “Corazón de Piedra.” The romantic sierreño, released March 22, also arrives at No. 3 on Latin Streaming Songs with 8.3 million official U.S. streams. Xavi totals three installments in the Hot Latin Songs top 10, as “La Diabla” holds strong for a 13th week No. 1 – the most this year and the seventh-most this decade – and “La Víctima” dips 3-7, after reaching No. 2.
All three debuts in the Hot Latin Songs top 10 also enter the all-genre Billboard Hot 100: “La People II” at No. 69, becoming the first entry on the chart for Tito Double P and Joel De La P; “Puntería,” at No. 72, as Shakira has now debuted songs on the Hot 100 in four consecutive years (eight tracks since 2021) for the first time, dating to her first appearance in 2001; and “Corazón de Piedra” at No. 73, giving Xavi his third and highest start.
