“Se Lo Juro Mor” – and its music video – debuted on August 20 via Universal Music Latino/UMLE.

Produced by Medellín, Colombia-based producer and engineer Wain, the song became the highlight of Feid’s 33rd birthday celebration, when the Colombian took over Tokyo’s vibrant Shibuya commercial center, where more than 500 fans attended, all dressed in his signature green.

“Se Lo Juro Mor” leaps 3-1 on the December 5-11 tracking week, fueled by 9.1 million audience impressions in the United States, as reported by Luminate. That’s a 22% surge from the previous week, during which the song garnered 7.4 million impressions.

The new chart-topper brings Feid his 12th No. 1 on Latin Airplay, just three weeks after he claimed his first chart leader through a Karol G collab with her single “Verano Rosa,” one of 15 tracks on her No. 1 album Tropicoqueta.

With this achievement, Feid ties Daddy Yankee and Rauw Alejandro for the sixth-most No. 1s among all acts on Latin Airplay in the 2020s decade, when the Colombian secured his first champ through “Porfa,” with J Balvin, Maluma, Nicky Jam, Sech and Justin Quiles, in August 2020.

Here is that list of winners:

Bad Bunny, 23
J Balvin, 21
Ozuna, 19
Myke Towers, 16
Karol G, 15
Daddy Yankee, 12
Feid, 12
Rauw Alejandro, 12

Elena Rose to Launch First U.S. Tour, “Alma Tour 2025”

Elena Rose is readying for an American first…

The 30-year-old Venezuelan American singer/songwriter will embark on her first U.S. tour this year. And she promises that it’ll be “a very healing, very empowering show.”

Elena RoseTitled Alma Tour 2025, the trek, promoted by Live Nation, will kick off on November 28 at the Fillmore Miami Beach and will visit nine cities, including key markets including Los Angeles, New York, Houston and Chicago.

“I’m so excited to be able to perform live,” Elena Rose tells Billboard Español from Madrid, where she recently had a show. “That’s when you really get to know an artist, you immerse yourself in the world, truly, in everything that’s been created.”

With a career as a songwriter of hits for artists including Becky G, Rauw Alejandro, CNCO and Sebastián Yatra, Elena Rose has forged her own path as a solo artist, connecting with heartfelt and sincere songs that blend pop with Latin urban music.

In 2024, after releasing the hits “Me Lo Merezco,” “Orion” with Boza, the Latin Grammy-nominated “Caracas en el 2000” with Danny Ocean and Jerry Di and “Blanco y Negro” with LAGOS, she dropped her first EP, En Las Nubes – Con Mis Panas.

Her latest single is “Cosita linda,” a Latin pop and Afrobeat fusion with urban artist Justin Quiles that dropped on Friday (July 25).

“This music has been crafted specifically so people can take away a message, so people can feel inspired, so they can sing from the soul, feel with the soul, and have a different experience,” she adds about her upcoming tour. “We’re going to feel a lot. I hope I can help you heal, be present, and enjoy it.”

“I get very emotional seeing how people are connecting with my music around the world, and now I have the chance to experience this new stage,” she continues. “Just like I started experiencing a year and a half ago when people began listening to my music, now having people who want to buy a ticket to see me is something that makes me feel super grateful and excited because we’re putting together a show with all of our hearts, and I want to see everyone there.”

General tickets for the Alma Tour 2025 will go on sale on Friday (August 1) at 10 a.m. (local time) via livenation.com.

J Balvin Logs 37th No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay Chart with Feid-Collaboration “Doblexxo”

J Balvin has extended his chart-topping record…

The 39-year-old Colombian superstar and Feid’s “Doblexxo” rises to the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart as the song climbs 6-1 for its first week atop the March 15-dated list.

J BalvinThe song lands at the summit in its 13th week.

“I feel super excited to know that our fans have embraced this song in such a way,” Balvin tells Billboard. “Feid’s talent is undeniable and our chemistry when it comes to making music has always been amazing. I can’t wait to sing ‘Doblexxo’ live during my upcoming Rayo tour.”

In the tracking week ending March 6, “Doblexxo” pulled 8.4 million audience impressions earned in the U.S., according to Luminate; that’s a 32% gain from the week prior when the song generated 6.1 million.

With “Doblexxo,” Balvin achieves his record-extending 37th No. 1s since the Latin Airplay chart began in 1994, opening a wider gap from his next competitor (Ozuna, 34 champs). Feid bags his ninth ruler. The latter last reached the top with “Si Sabe Ferxxo,” with Blessd, which spent a week at No. 1 in June 2024.

Except for 2024, Balvin has placed at least one champ every year during his decade-long No. 1 chart career, dating back to “6AM,” featuring Farruko (May 2014). He completed his most lucrative period in 2022, placing nine No. 1 hits between February and October then. The year before, Balvin reached his second-best run, with six No. 1s in 2019.

Good reception across Latin rhythmic stations also spurs its coronation on the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart, where “Doblexxo” jumps 3-1.

There, Balvin also stands firmly ahead of the rest, with 37 No. 1s. (Daddy Yankee follows with 35.)

The song’s 13-week climb to No. 1 marks a longer stride to the top than Balvin and Feid’s past pair-up, “Porfa” — where Maluma, Nicky Jam, Sech and Justin Quiles are also part of the billing — as it ruled after eight weeks in August 2020.

“Doblexxo” is the fourth radio promoted single from Balvin’s sixth studio album Rayo, which debuted and peaked at No. 5 on Latin Rhythm Albums last August.

Blessd & Feid Lead Latest Billboard Latin Airplay Chart with “Si Sabe Ferxxo”

Blessd has another chart-topper on his hands…

The 24-year-old Colombian singer-songwriter and rapper, whose real name is Stiven Mesa Londoño. and Feid combine forces atop Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart, as the pair’s first collaboration “Si Sabe Ferxxo“ climbs from No. 7 to lead the list dated June 1.

Blessd & FeidThe new champ is the second team-up by two Colombian artists to rule the overall Latin radio tally in less than a year, after Shakira and Manuel Turizo united at No. 1 through “Copa Vacía” (one week in charge) in October 2023.

Si Sabe Ferxxo” is one of eight collaborative cuts from Blessd’s 14-track album, Si Sabe, which earned the 24-year-old his first entry on any Billboard albums chart, debuting and reaching No. 29 and No. 15 high on the Top Latin Albums and Latin Rhythm Albums charts dated February 10, respectively.

The song advances to the chart’s summit with a 28% gain in audience impressions, up to 8.5 million, earned in the U.S. during the May 17-23 tracking week, according to Luminate.

With “Si Sabe Ferxxo,” Blessd achieves his second No. 1 on Latin Airplay, following his three-way collab “Medallo,” with Justin Quiles and Lenny Tavarez, in May 2022.

For Feid, “Si Sabe Ferxxo” becomes the hitmaker’s eighth No. 1 on the overall radio ranking, which began with “Porfa,” featuring J Balvin, Maluma, Nicky Jam, Sech and Justin Quiles, climbing to No. 1 in August 2020.

Here’s his collection of champs:

Peak, Title, Artist, Weeks at No. 1
Aug. 29, 2020, “Porfa,” with J Balvin, Maluma, Nicky Jam, Sech & Justin Quiles, one
March 4, 2023, “Hey Mor,” with Ozuna, one
April 15, 2023, “Yandel 150,” Yandel, four
Aug. 19, 2023, “Niña Bonita,” with Sean Paul, one
Jan. 13, 2024, “Bubalu,” with Rema, two
April 20, 2024, “Perro Negro,” with Bad Bunny, one
May 4, 2024, “Luna,” with Atl Jacob, two
June 1, 2024, “Si Sabe Ferxxo,” with Blessd, one

As “Si Sabe Ferxxo” rises to No. 1, it unseats another Warner Latina song from the summit: Myke Towers’ “La Capi” dips 1-5 with a 25% decrease in audience impressions, to 7.71 million.

Elsewhere, thanks to its radio haul, “Si Sabe Ferxxo” rises 36-31 with the Greatest Gainer/Airplay honors of the week on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart, which combines airplay, digital sales and streaming data.
