Bad Bunny Hits Solo No. 1
Bad Bunny scored his first solo No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "DtMF." The track debuted on the Hot 100 more than a year ago but climbed to the top following his Super Bowl appearance. His only previous No. 1 was as a featured artist on Cardi B's "I Like It" eight years ago.
- The song’s jump to No. 1 was propelled by Bad Bunny’s headlining performance at the Super Bowl LX halftime show, which was the first to be performed almost entirely in Spanish and drew an average of 128.2 million viewers. - In the days following the Super Bowl, Bad Bunny’s U.S. on-demand streams saw a 175% increase, with his music gaining 99.6 million streams on February 9 alone. - "DtMF" is the fourth predominantly Spanish-language song to ever top the Hot 100, following "La Bamba" (1987), "Macarena" (1996), and "Despacito" (2017). - The track is the title song from his sixth album, "Debí Tirar Más Fotos," which had won the Grammy for Album of the Year just one week before his Super Bowl appearance. - The Super Bowl bump is a significant trend for artists; Rihanna's halftime show in 2023 led to a 390% increase in her digital song sales and a 211% jump in on-demand streams. - This achievement is part of a larger chart takeover for the artist, who also holds the No. 2, No. 5, and No. 7 spots on the current Hot 100 with other tracks. - Bad Bunny's previous album, "Un Verano Sin Ti" (2022), was the first all-Spanish-language album to finish as No. 1 on the Billboard year-end chart and spent 13 weeks in the top spot.
