The official FIFA World Cup song, “Dai Dai Dai,” by Shakira and Burna Boy, takes over Decibeles’ Top 100 Colombia Hits chart.
By Carlos Pasaje for Decibeles
This week, “Chévere (Premium Remix),” by Aria Vega and Ryan Castro, falls from the top spot on Colombia’s national chart of the most popular songs after remaining at the top of the Top 100 Colombia Hits for almost three months. This ranking measures the combined performance of songs on radio (airplay provided by Decibeles), Spotify (audio on-demand), and YouTube (video on-demand).
The new queen of the chart is “Dai Dai Dai,” the official theme song of the FIFA World Cup currently being held in the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
The Decibeles Top 100 Colombia Hits is the only ranking in the country that combines the three most important variables in the music industry to reflect the actual consumption of the hits preferred by Colombians each week.
This week, the song by the Colombian and Nigerian artists registered 2,507 plays on radio stations across the country, 757,025 streams on Spotify, and 2,807,135 views on YouTube.
“Dai Dai Dai” dominates radio and YouTube, where it’s racking up extraordinary numbers. However, its Achilles’ heel remains Spotify, where it has yet to become a true smash hit in Colombia. The song currently sits at number 18 on the platform with 757,025 plays, while the biggest hit of the week there is “Tuki Tuki” by Kris R and Geeze Dee, with 1,348,873 streams. Even so, its dominance in airplay (measured by Decibeles) and YouTube was enough to make it the most popular song of the week in Colombia. The former number one hit, “Chévere (Premium Remix),” by Aria Vega and Ryan Castro, lost momentum and dropped to fourth place after spending 11 consecutive weeks at number one.
Aria Vega is scheduled to perform on Saturday, June 27, at the Coke Studio Sessions, an event taking place at Tribuna Club, in the North Parking Lot of El Campín Stadium.
In second place, climbing from third, is Mexican artist Lenin Ramírez with “Todo Lo Fue.” The regional Mexican singer has been making significant moves within the Top 10 in recent weeks. The song is currently at number 3 on Billboard’s Mexico Songs chart, behind only “Nalguita y Teta” by Nerón Vega and “Tu Sancho” by Fuerza Regida.
The third position on the Top 100 Colombia Hits chart also belongs to a former number one: “La Villa” by Ryan Castro.
Ryan Castro has already confirmed his US tour. The Sendé: The Last Dance Tour, a 16-date tour, will kick off on September 6 at the HQ2 Beachclub at the Ocean Casino Resort in New Jersey and conclude on October 10 in Las Vegas. For a month, it will visit cities including Boston, Orlando, Nashville, San Antonio, and Las Vegas, among others.
The Sendé: The Last Dance tour marks the second leg in the United States of his Sendé 2025 world tour, which included concerts at the Kaseya Center in Miami, the Barclays Center in New York, and the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, in addition to a historic show at the Atanasio Girardot Stadium in Medellín earlier this year.
Luister La Voz drops to fifth place this week with “La María,” a song that has garnered 876 radio plays, 830,763 Spotify streams, and 1,735,734 YouTube views.
The artist also confirmed his participation in the New Year’s Eve party at the Hotel Las Américas in Cartagena, on December 31st, alongside Carlos Vives, Tito Nieves, and Eddy Herrera.
The only new entry in the Top 10 this week is “Superstar” by Blessed and Los Money Makers, with 447 radio plays, 1,094,098 Spotify streams, and 1,075,048 YouTube views.
The rest of the Top 10 is as follows:
6: “Te Entiendo” by Maizak.
7: “Pico y Chao” by W Sound.
9: “Ganas” by Kris R.10: “Ozono” by Luister La Voz.
The Top 100 Colombia Hits chart compiles the 100 most popular songs across all musical genres each week, ranking them according to their performance on streaming platforms (YouTube and Spotify) and the electronic airplay monitoring conducted by ACR Decibeles on the country’s main radio stations.
Each of the three variables—YouTube views, Spotify streams, and Decibeles airplay—carries equal weight in the ranking methodology: 33.3%.
