Latin Rhythm Airplayis an airplay-only chart published weekly byBillboardthat ranks the most popular songs being played onHispanic rhythmic/hurbanradio stations in the United States.[1]The music typically heard on these stations includereggaeton,HispanicR&Bandhip hop,rhythmic pop/dance,and crossovers from English-language and/or bilingual acts.
The chart was introduced the week of August 13, 2005, and came about as a result of radio stations tapping into the growing second and third generation Hispanic audience who wanted a Spanish-speaking or bilingual alternative to the (English-language mainstream, rhythmic, and R&B/hip-hop) formats that they felt would represent them.[2]"Lo Que Pasó, Pasó"byDaddy Yankeewas the first number-one song on the chart.[3]With the issue dated January 8, 2011, the chart's methodology was change to reflect overall airplay of Latin rhythm music on Latin radio stations. Instead of ranking songs being played on Latin-rhythm stations, rankings are determined by the amount of airplay Latin rhythm songs receive on stations that play Latin music regardless of genre.[4]
Only a few female artists have been able to reach the top ten of the chart. These include reggaetón singerIvy Queen,who currently has seven top-ten, two of them number-one singles,Nina Sky,who appeared onTony Touch's "Play That Song",Latin pop singersShakiraandRBD,and American R&B singersBeyoncé Knowles,Cassie,andKeyshia Cole.[5]Ivy Queen became the first woman to top the chart in 2008, when her single "Dime"reached number one.[6]Karol Gis the female artist with the most number-ones, with fifteen.[7]As of March 2016[update],"Danza Kuduro"byDon OmarfeaturingLucenzois the longest-leading song with 29 weeks at number-one.[8]
