Banda MS & Alfredo Olivas Reign Atop Regional Mexican Airplay With ‘Tengo Claro’

“Tengo Claro” takes Banda MS and Alfredo Olivas to No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart, where the song rises a spot on the Oct. 5-dated list. The coronation comes thanks to 6.4 million U.S. audience impressions, up 12% from the week prior, registered in the week ending Sept. 26, according to Luminate.

While both acts add their second champ of 2024, Banda MS collects its 21st No. 1, after “Tu Perfume” ruled for one week in April. With the new win, the group continues as the act with the second-most leaders since the tally launched in 1994, coming closer to Calibre 50’s 25 rulers.

Here’s a review of the acts with the most No. 1s on the almost 30-year-old chart:

25, Calibre 50
21, Banda MS
19, Intocable
18, Banda El Recodo de Cruz Lizárraga
18, La Arrolladora Banda el Limón de Rene Camacho
17, Christian Nodal
17, Los Tigres del Norte

With “Tengo Claro,” Olivas ups his career count to five total No. 1s among 23 chart visits. The song also becomes his second champ through a collaboration, following his featured role on Alejandro Fernández’s “Cobijas Ajenas,” for one week atop Regional Mexican Airplay in June.

“Tengo Claro” was released July 5 via Lizos Music and marks the label’s 17th No. 1. Lizos’ latest hit follows its previous most recent, another Banda MS win: “Tu Perfume” (one week in charge in April).

Beyond its Regional Mexican Airplay coronation, “Tengo Claro” also cracks the top five on the overall Latin Airplay ranking, where it races 6-2, marking Banda MS’ highest-charting song since the No. 1-peaking “No Elegí Conocerte” in 2019. Plus, the group ties with Alejandro Fernández and Marco Antonio Solis for the second-most top 10s among regional Mexican acts, trailing Calibre 50 with 58 top 10s since the chart’s inception.
