Rauw Alejandro’s ‘Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0’ Makes No. 3 Debut on Top Latin Albums

Rauw Alejandro grabs his eighth consecutive top 10 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart as his sixth studio album, Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0, debuts at No. 3 on the chart dated Oct. 11. The set also sweeps through the Hot Latin Songs chart.

Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0 starts at No. 3 on the Top Latin Albums chart –and the Latin Rhythm Albums chart– with 22,000 equivalent album units earned in the United States in the tracking week of Sept. 26 – Oct. 2, according to Luminate.

Streaming activity supplies most of Cosa Nuestra: Capítulo 0’s first-week sum, that is 28.9 million official on-demand audio and video streams of the set’s songs. The remaining negligible figure derives from album sales and track-equivalent units.

Capítulo 0, released Sept. 26 on Sony Music Latin, is an amalgam of rhythmic, tropical and pop sounds that deepens the Puerto Rican’s connection to his Caribbean roots. This new project builds on the success of his No. 1 album Cosa Nuestra, which scored the largest streaming first week for a Latin album in Nov. 2024.

Capítulo 0 also marks Rauw Alejandro’s eighth straight top 10 on Top Latin Albums, including two No. 1 entries: in addition to Cosa Nuestra, which dominated for six consecutive weeks, Vice Versa took charge for two weeks in 2021. With that in mind, here’s a closer look of his collection of chart-topping releases:
