Disturbed Ties Van Halen With A Brand New No. 1 Single
Disturbed earns its thirteenth No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart with 'I Will Not Break,' ... More tying Godsmack and Van Halen for the sixth-most leaders.

The band Disturbed recently returned with a tune that feels like it's just the beginning of a new chapter – and if early signs are any indication, this next era could be just as successful as previous ones. The hard rock act has long been a regular in the upper tiers of various Billboard rankings, and especially so in the past few years, when it's odd not to see that moniker inside the top 10 on at least one or two tallies. Now, with the newly-popular "I Will Not Break," the group kicks off its latest campaign with a quick win — and another chart-topper to add to the growing pile.
"I Will Not Break" wasted no time racing up the Billboard charts. The tune arrived to solid sales and streaming numbers, and in the past few weeks, it has picked up serious steam on the radio. Rock programmers, who are seemingly always eager to spin the latest offering from Disturbed, have embraced the cut in a big way.
This week, the track climbs from No. 2 to No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. It knocks Papa Roach's "Even If It Kills Me" off the top spot. This win not only marks an exciting victory for the group, it also shifts Disturbed's historic position when compared to other names in the field.
With 'I Will Not Break,' Disturbed earns its thirteenth No. 1 on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart. That's enough to tie the band with Linkin Park for a shared spot on the all-time ranking of the most successful acts ever. The latter band has now held strong at 12 leaders for a while.
Linkin Park is currently working on making a comeback of its own. The rock outfit's new single "Up From the Bottom" debuts on the Mainstream Rock Airplay tally this frame at No. 17. That track is already a huge hit on several other rankings, and it could easily become another No. 1 on this list in the coming weeks.
Disturbed now sits in a three-way tie for the sixth-most No. 1 hits in Mainstream Rock Airplay history. It joins Godsmack and Van Halen, who also have 13 leaders to their names. Just ahead of this trio are Foo Fighters and Metallica, each with 14, and then there's a notable jump to Five Finger Death Punch with 15 and Three Days Grace with 18 champions. Shinedown still owns the record outright with 20 No. 1s, and it doesn't seem like that will be changing anytime soon.
While its most impressive placement is on the Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, "I Will Not Break" is also performing well across several other Billboard rankings as well. The single remains at its peak of No. 4 on the Rock & Alternative Airplay list, the radio tally that includes more than just the harder side of the rock genre.
On the Hot Hard Rock Songs chart, the cut slips slightly this frame. It drops from No. 5 to No. 7, though it's still holding on inside the top 10. The ranking blends all consumption metrics — sales, streaming, and radio airplay — and provides a more complete picture of a hard rock tune's overall popularity in the U.S.

Belinda's ‘Indómita' Album & More Best New Music Latin
New Music Latin is a compilation of the best new Latin songs and albums recommended by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors. Check out this week's picks below. Belinda, (Warner Music México) More from Billboard Jon Bellion Was Tired of Songwriters Getting 'Paid F-king Dirt' - So He Flipped the Script With 'Father Figure' Elvis Crespo, Elena Rose, Kapo & More: Vote for the Best New Latin Music This Week The Weeknd Wanders Through Purgatory in 'Baptized in Fear' Music Video When Belinda received the Evolution Award at the 2025 Billboard Latin Women in Music gala, she made it clear that 'Belinda isn't a musical genre.' During a career that spans 25 years, she's navigated through pop, rock, electronic, cumbia, and most recently, música mexicana. 'My career is versatile…it's the perfect word to define my style,' she previously told Billboard. Best representing her fruitful and experimental growth in the industry, the Spain-born, Mexican-raised star dropped Indómita, her sixth studio album and debut set under Warner Music. The 17-track album starts off with nine 'corridos coquettes,' where her alter ego 'Beli Bélica' shines in collaborations with genre hitmakers Natanael Cano ('300 Noches'), Tito Double P ('La Cuadrada'), and Xavi ('Mírame Feliz'). Across the next eight songs, she dabbles in trap music ('Death Note' and 'Silvana'); teams up with Netón Vega and Tokischa for two hard-hitting perreos ('+ Perra, + Bitch' and 'Wet Dreams'); and goes full dance in the Kenia OS-assisted 'Jackpot.' Other collaborators on the set include Alemán, Mala Rodriguez and Thirty Second to Mars. 'The [album's] title is very specific to a movement for women,' she explained of Indómita, which means 'untamed.' 'She's a warrior, independent, a woman who's out of the box, completely irreverent but at the same time strong, sexy, fun… all the things I like and that I am, and I'd like to convey that to people.' — JESSICA ROIZ Óscar Maydon, (Rancho Humilde) Excess, irreverence and romance collide in Óscar Maydon's Rico o Muerto, Vol. 1, a whirlwind of sierreño swagger that feels like a tequila-soaked fever dream. Across 12 tracks, the Mexicali artist channels the debauchery and drama of late-night escapades, weaving tales of fleeting romances ('Mr. Vallarta'), dismissal ('Para Ti') and indulgence ('ZAZA,' the only trap song). The party kicks off on 'Baja Beach,' a sun-drenched anthem named after the infamous Mexican festival, with Junior H and Fuerza Regida joining the revelry. 'Desvelada' turns up the nocturnal chaos alongside Peso Pluma and Netón Vega, while the focus track 'Asquerosamente Rico' with Peso takes playful opulence to new heights. On '2030,' Maydon rides solo, mixing carnivalesque accordion riffs with a pulsing electric bassline to deliver a debauched, dystopian glimpse into the future. The album is the right amount of star-studded that Luis R Conríquez and Gabito Ballesteros also join him on 'Fina Con Los Valentinos.' With pre-released hits 'Tu boda' and 'Amigos? No.' rounding out the collection, Rico o Muerto, Vol. 1 reaffirms Maydon's devil-may-care and romantic style. But more than a party album, it's a work where the unbridled fun and excitement feel as real as the early mornings it invokes. — ISABELA RAYGOZA Elvis Crespo, (Puntería Records) Merengue star Elvis Crespo delivers Poeta Herío, a term from Puerto Rican slang that translates to 'hurt poet.' The 13-track set showcases the vibrant essence of merengue, featuring lively rhythms and heartfelt lyrics encapsulating the joys and struggles of life through his music. The LP is a vibrant tapestry of tropical sounds, featuring an impressive roster of both legendary icons and rising stars. With Elvis Crespo at the helm, the project immerses listeners in his signature genres of spirited merengue, lively mambo and infectious bachata. This new chapter in Crespo's musical journey is fueled by collaborations with a diverse array of artists such as Ivy Queen, Jerry Rivera, Toño Rosario, Tony Tun Tun and Víctor Manuelle. Standout tracks include 'Cora Roto,' an emotionally charged song where Crespo unveils a gripping narrative of betrayal, where hidden truths come to light, revealing a harsh and unforgiving reality. This is followed by several heartfelt goodbye letters and concludes the album with a revamped version of his classic 'Nuestra Canción,' featuring Jerry Rivera. — INGRID FAJARDO Ozuna, 'Sirenita' (Nibiru International) Ozuna hasn't released an album in two years, so he could be setting the tone for a potential LP with the two singles he's released so far this year. His latest, 'Sirenita,' is a vibrant fusion of Afrobeats and the Puerto Rican hitmaker's signature rhythmic-leaning urban production, which serves as the perfect canvas for his sweet and delicate vocals. The lyrics to 'Sirenita' — which tell the story of a girl who's stolen Ozuna's heart — are a testament to Ozuna's knack for writing sensitive, romantic songs. 'Sirenita' serves as the lead-up to Ozuna's summer tour in Europe that will kick off on June 20 in Milan and span over ten cities across the continent. — GRISELDA FLORES Elena Rose, Sistek & Mazzarri, 'SINTIGO' (Warner Music Latina) Accompanied by producers Sistek and Mazzarri, Elena Rose releases 'SINTIGO,' an evocative track with an electronic vibe that explores the emotional contradiction of wanting someone to stay but also wanting them to leave. 'How do I tell you? My life without you makes no sense,' the artist sings over a subtle fusion of house with Afrobeats, resulting in a delicate yet euphoric soundtrack for summer. 'SINTIGO' – a Spanish play of the words 'Sin ti' (without you) and 'Contigo' (with you) – is the first preview of the Venezuelan singer-songwriter's highly anticipated debut LP, following her 2024 EP En Las Nubes – Con Mis Panas. 'This is the first of everything,' Elena wrote on Instagram. 'A summer without drama is coming … full of beautiful things.' – SIGAL RATNER-ARIAS Adriel Favela, Eddy, 'KbrN InfeLiZ' (Fono) Adriel Favela's 'KbrN InfeLiZ,' the first single from his upcoming album Elysium, is a sad sierreño song powered by raw lyrics about a man who realizes that his lifestyle and emotional failings make him incapable of loving someone back the way he is loved. The sierreño-style guitars add an even more dramatic and profound touch to the track, in which the regional Mexican star is accompanied by Eddy, an emerging música mexicana artist who has previously collaborated with Gabito Ballesteros, Calle 24 and Ed Maverick. 'KbrN InfeLiZ' has the makings of an anthem for today's generation. – TERE AGUILERA Kapo, 'Korazong' (Sony Music Latin/La Industria) Kapo's 'Korazong' is a romantic declaration of love powered by a hypnotic Afrobeats sound. Written by the Colombian singer and produced by Gangsta, the song is distinguished by its poetic and sincere lyrics in which Kapo, with his unmistakable raspy voice, sings to that woman who came to heal his heart and transform it with love. Although it is still early to know if it will be his next hit, what is clear is that Kapo reaffirms his knack for authentic songs that touch the heartstrings and appeal to all types of listeners. — LUISA CALLE Check out more Latin recommendations this week below: Best of Billboard Chart Rewind: In 1989, New Kids on the Block Were 'Hangin' Tough' at No. 1 Janet Jackson's Biggest Billboard Hot 100 Hits H.E.R. & Chris Brown 'Come Through' to No. 1 on Adult R&B Airplay Chart

Miley Cyrus Says Madonna ‘Was Down' to Mud Wrestle in a ‘4×4' Music Video, But Her Label Said No
In an alternate universe, Miley Cyrus' iconic Bangerz era would've been made complete with a wild music video starring Madonna, Nelly and more superstars popping wheelies and wrestling in the mud. Unfortunately, we do not live in that universe. In an interview on the Every Single Album podcast posted Thursday (June 5), the 'Flowers' singer revealed that she had been dead set on rounding up a star-studded group of friends to shoot a raucous visual for '4×4,' a song on her smash-hit 2013 album that ultimately never became a single. 'I had everyone already lined up,' Cyrus said. 'Nelly … Madonna was down to do the video, Miranda Cosgrove.' More from Billboard Miley Cyrus' 'Something Beautiful' Album: All 13 Tracks Ranked The Weeknd Wanders Through Purgatory in 'Baptized in Fear' Music Video Belinda's 'Indómita' Album & More Best New Music Latin 'This was before Taylor [Swift] had a lot of famous people in her crew,' she continued, laughing. 'I was friends with famous people first. I wanted to do that. I had a f–king squad, and my squad was very, very cool.' Cyrus claimed the idea was eventually shut down by RCA, her label at the time, whom she quipped didn't want her 'talking about a pit bull [and] piss' in a song they'd be promoting. 'Madonna was down to mud wrestle with Miranda Kerr,' the Grammy winner reminisced wistfully. 'I was like, 'I'm gonna get all these girls, all these supermodels, all these Victoria's Secret models and all of these pop icons to come to my dad's farm, get in the back of 4x4s, and we're gonna mud wrestle, and we're gonna go out and do doughnuts.' Despite the lack of a '4×4' visual, Bangerz remains one of Cyrus' most successful albums to date. The LP debuted atop the Billboard 200 and spawned her first-ever No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot 100, 'Wrecking Ball,' which was followed closely by 'We Can't Stop' at No. 2. The 'Party in the U.S.A.' artist was signed to RCA for a three-album run, later dropping Younger Now in 2017 and Plastic Hearts in 2020 under the Sony Music imprint. In 2021, she inked a new deal with Columbia Records, through which she just released new album Something Beautiful on May 30. Later in the podcast episode, Cyrus recalled another time where she and her former label weren't quite on the same page. According to her, she never would've put a certain fellow pop star on 'Prisoner,' one of the singles on Plastic Hearts. 'No shade to Dua Lipa, it just isn't cohesive with the album,' Cyrus said frankly. 'She would've been much better on something like [2023 LP] Endless Summer Vacation,' the singer continued of Dua Lipa. 'She would've been great on 'Wildcard,' she would've been great on any of them — 'River,' can you imagine?' Cyrus added that she thought her team at RCA wasn't entirely confident in how Plastic Hearts would perform, so they brought in some 'medicinal Dua' to give the LP some commercial oomph. 'They basically were like, 'Oh, great, here's this piece of s–t album she gave us, let's spray a little Dua Lipa on there,'' Cyrus said, laughing.
