Maluma & Carin León’s ‘Según Quien’ Hits No. 1 on Latin Airplay & Regional Mexican Airplay Charts

Maluma and Carin León combine forces for a new No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart as “Según Quien” advances 3-1 to lead the Dec. 16-dated list. The move gives the Colombian artist his 24th champ, while León captures his second.

“Según Quien” crowns the all-genre airplay chart with a 50% gain in audience impressions, to 13.2 million, earned in the U.S. in the week ending Dec. 7, according to Luminate. The song is one of 24 tracks from Maluma’s Grammy-nominated Don Juan album, which debuted at No. 11 on Top Latin Albums last September.

In addition to its first week at No. 1 on Latin Airplay, “Quien” also lands at the summit on Regional Mexican Airplay (rising 11-1) for its first week in charge, and gives León his fifth leader there. He previously reached No. 1 with the three-week champ “Indispensable,” his first ruler with no accompanying acts, last August. Maluma claims his second, after “Cada Quien” in 2022.

Notably, as the Maluma-León partnership takes over both tallies, Maluma becomes the first urban artist to lead the rankings simultaneously since Latin Airplay and Regional Mexican Airplay launched in 1994. Only two other urban artists have reached the penthouse on Regional Mexican Airplay: Cazzu and Santa Fe Klan, through their equally billed collab “Tú y Tú,” with Los Ángeles Azules, in May; the song peaked at No. 5 on Latin Airplay during the same period.

Further, “Según Quien” becomes the fifth champ by two co-billed male soloists on Latin Airplay out of the 33 No. 1s in 2023. Let’s review those winners:
