Ovy on the Drums Achieves First Billboard No. 1 as Artist With Blessd Collab, ‘Mírame’
It’s Ovy On The Drums’ winning week as the Colombian celebrates his first No. 1 as an artist on any Billboard ranking, as “Mírame,” with Blessd, advances 2-1 on the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart (dated Nov. 9). As a songwriter and producer, he’s banked 12 rulers on the list.
“Mírame,” released on Cigol/Globalatino/Warner Latina, jumps to No. 1 on Latin Rhythm Airplay with 7.6 million audience impressions, earned in the U.S. during the 25-31 tracking week. That’s a 6% gain from the week prior across monitored Latin rhythm radio stations according to Luminate.
With “Mírame” at No. 1, Blessd collects his third No. 1on Latin Rhythm Airplay, and second in 2024 through a Colombian pair-up, following “Si Sabe Ferxxo,” with Feid, which ruled for one week in June.
Two other Colombian team-ups –by two artists in a lead role– have landed at the summit on Latin Rhythm Airplay in the 2020s decade, both through Shakira collabs: while “Copa Vacía,” with Manuel Turizo, reigned for one week, “TQG,” with Karol G, dominated for seven weeks, both in 2023.
Before Ovy on The Drums’ secured his fist champ this week as an artist, he managed 12 No. 1s as songwriter and producer (mostly through Karol G songs) spanning his eight-year Billboard chart career. Among those, Becky G and Karol G’s “Mamiii” earned him his longest-leading No. 1 track on Latin Rhythm Airplay, dominating for 10 weeks in 2022.
Elsewhere, “Mírame” holds at its No. 3 high on the overall Latin Airplay chart, Ovy’s highest-charting entry and first top 10 there. Plus, in addition to its radio haul, the song rebounds to No. 15 (from No. 18) on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart with a 4% boost in streams, after it generated 2.3 million official U.S. clicks during the tracking week. The latter blends airplay, streams and digital sales.
All charts (dated Nov. 9, 2024) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, Nov. 5). For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
