Oscar Maydon’s Fuerza Regida Collab ‘Tu Boda’ Earns Him His First No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs

Mexican singer Oscar Maydon claims his first No. 1 on Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs thanks to his Fuerza Regida collab, “Tu Boda,” which surges 8-1 on the list dated Nov. 2. As the song climbs seven spots, it marks the largest jump on the multimetric tally in almost two years.

“Tu Boda” lands at the summit on Hot Latin Songs mainly on the strength of streaming data and sales. For the Oct. 18-24 tracking week, the song generated 15.2 million official U.S. streams according to Luminate, up 157% from the week prior. The growth pushes the song to a No. 14 debut on the overall Streaming Songs chart, for Maydon’s first appearance there. Fuerza Regida logs its sixth visit, where the group previously logged a No. 10 high with “Tu Name,” with Grupo Frontera, in October 2023.

“Tu Boda” also registers enough streams in the U.S. for a 6-1 climb on Latin Streaming Songs where Maydon picks up his first visit and No. 1, while Regida secures its second champ.

Sales too, assist “Tu Boda’s” swell on Hot Latin Songs, which combines, airplay, streaming activity and downloads. The song sold 1,000 downloads in the tracking week, yielding a No. 1 debut on Latin Digital Song Sales.

As the song crowns Hot Latin Songs, it dethrones Karol G’s “Si Antes Te Hubiera Conocido” from the lead after the latter’s 14 consecutive week atop (a three-way tie with Xavi’s “La Diabla,” and FloyyMenor and Cris Mj’s “Gata Only,” for the longest-leading songs in 2024). “Si Antes” also adds a 15th week at No. 1 on the overall Latin Airplay, where it enters a tie with Don Omar and Lucenzo’s “Danza Kuduro” and Daddy Yankee’s “Rompe” for the 10th most weeks at No. 1 since the tally launched in 1994. There, Karol extends her record for the most weeks at the summit by a woman soloist, unaccompanied by any other act. (Among all women, Shakira holds the record, with 25 weeks atop through “La Tortura,” featuring Alejandro Sanz.)

Back to “Tu Boda,” which was released Sept. 26 on Rancho Humilde/Sony Music Latin, the song’s 8-1 surge marks the biggest climb to No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs in a year and 10 months, after Shakira’s “Bzrp: Music Sessions, Vol. 53,” with Bizarrap, rallied 16-1 in its second week (Jan. 28, 2023-dated list).

On a global level, “Tu Boda” takes the Greatest Gainer trophy on both global charts: rushes to No. 4 (from No. 22) on the Billboard Global 200 with 75.1million streams worldwide. The song shows a similar success outside the U.S. where it blasts 17-5 on the Global Excl. U.S. tally with 60 million clicks. Thanks to the streaming splash, both Maydon and Regida pick up their first top 10 on both rankings.

Lastly, “Tu Boda” takes both collaborators to their highest charting performance yet on the all-genre Billboard Hot 100, where it opens at No. 23.
