Grupo Frontera & Bad Bunny’s ‘Un x100to’ Hits No. 1 on Billboard Global Charts

Grupo Frontera and Bad Bunny’s “Un x100to” bounds to No. 1 on both the Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts (dated May 6). It’s the first leader on each list for Grupo Frontera and the second for Bad Bunny.

Notably, the track is the second Global 200 No. 1 and first Global Excl. U.S. leader for the regional Mexican genre — as it dethrones the first such No. 1 on the former chart: Eslabon Armado and Peso Pluma’s “Ella Baila Sola” jumped to the top of the Global 200 a week earlier.

Meanwhile, thanks to “Un x100to,” “Ella Baila Sola” and Yng Lvcas and Peso Pluma’s “La Bebe,” regional Mexican (and Spanish-language) songs rank at Nos. 1, 2 and 3 simultaneously on both charts for the first time since the surveys began in September 2020.

Elsewhere, YOASOBI’s “Idol” climbs 14-10 on the Global 200, becoming the act’s first top 10 on the chart, and David Kushner’s “Daylight” rises 14-9 on Global Excl. U.S., likewise marking his initial top 10 on the tally.

The Billboard Global 200 and Billboard Global Excl. U.S. charts rank songs based on streaming and sales activity culled from more than 200 territories around the world, as compiled by Luminate. The Global 200 is inclusive of worldwide data and the Global Excl. U.S. chart comprises data from territories excluding the United States.

Chart ranks are based on a weighted formula incorporating official-only streams on both subscription and ad-supported tiers of audio and video music services, as well as download sales, the latter of which reflect purchases from full-service digital music retailers from around the world, with sales from direct-to-consumer (D2C) sites excluded from the charts’ calculations.

The Japanese tandem of Ayase and Ikura posts its first top 10 on the survey — and the chart’s second Japanese-language top 10, joining LiSA’s “Homura” (No. 8 peak, October 2020).
