J Balvin Adds Record-Extending 37th No. 1 on Latin Airplay With Feid Collab ‘Doblexxo'
J Balvin and Feid's 'Doblexxo' snags 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. The 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.' More from Billboard J Balvin Bares His Soul After 'A Moment of Darkness' DDG Accuses Halle Bailey of Keeping Their Son Away From Him on New Song Snoop Dogg Delivers a Surprise Performance at Nashville Bar 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 decadelong 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. All charts (dated March 15, 2025) will update on tomorrow, March 11. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.
