Latin Rhythm Airplay

Latin Rhythm Airplay is an airplay-only chart published weekly by Billboard that ranks the most popular songs being played on Hispanic rhythmic/hurban radio stations in the United States.[1] The music typically heard on these stations include reggaeton, Hispanic R&B and hip 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. "Lo Que Pasó, Pasó" by Daddy Yankee was the first number-one song on the chart.[2]

Only a few female artists have been able to reach the top ten of the chart. These include reggaetón singer Ivy Queen, who currently has seven top-ten, two of them number-one singles, Nina Sky, who appeared on Tony Touch's "Play That Song", Latin pop singers Shakira and RBD, and American R&B singers Beyoncé Knowles, Cassie, and Keyshia Cole.[3] Ivy Queen became the first woman to top the chart in 2008, when her single "Dime" reached number one.[4] Jennifer Lopez is the female artist with the most number-ones, with four.[5] As of March 2016, "Danza Kuduro" by Don Omar featuring Lucenzo is the longest-leading song with 29 weeks at number-one.[6]
