'Ahí Estabas Tú' claims the top spot on the overall Latin Airplay chart with 8.2 million audience impressions earned in the U.S. during the May 9-15 tracking week, according to Luminate –that's a 21% gain from the previous week.

'Ahí Estabas Tú' marks León's second champ of 2025. Previously the Hermosillo, Sonora-born singer-songwriter took command of Latin Airplay for one week through 'El Amor de Mi Herida' (March 22-dated list).
With a second ruler in 2025, León is only the second soloist to have two No. 1s on Latin Airplay this year unaccompanied by another act. Earlier in 2025, Bad Bunny topped the chart twice with his solo tracks 'El Clúb' and 'Baile Inolvidable,' each reigning for two weeks in February and March, respectively.
In total, four artists have secured two No. 1 hits in 2025 so far. Between Benito's two chart-toppers, Myke Towers claimed the No. 1 spot with 'Otra Noche' featuring Darell, for one week in February. He followed up with another No. 1 hit, 'Degenere,' which features benny blanco, leading for one week on the May 3 chart. Meanwhile, Colombian Kapo placed back-to-back champs as 'Más Que Tú,' with Ozuna, ceded its place to 'Imagínate,' with Danny Ocean, on the April 26 list, both one-week rulers.
Beyond his Latin Airplay coronation, León also takes 'Ahí Estabas Tú' to the summit on Regional Mexican Airplay, where it jumps 2-1, his eighth No. 1 overall. He ties Eden Muñoz for the fourth-most rulers among soloists in the 2020s decade. They trail Christian Nodal who leads with 17 No. 1 this decade, Gerardo Ortiz follows with 13, and Alejandro Fernández with 12 leaders.
All charts (dated May 24, 2025) will update on Billboard.com tomorrow, May 20. For all chart news, you can follow @billboard and @billboardcharts on both X, formerly known as Twitter, and Instagram.

My Chemical Romance's Album Soars Nearly 3,000% In Sales
My Chemical Romance's deluxe Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge helps the band tie its all-time peak of ... More No. 2 on Billboard's Top Album Sales chart. MILAN, ITALY - NOVEMBER 21: My Chemical Romance posed backstage in Milan on November 21 2006. L-R Ray Toro, Frank Iero,Gerard Way, Mikey Way, Bob Bryar (Photo by Mick Hutson/Redferns) My Chemical Romance is enjoying quite the comeback on the Billboard charts this week. The emo band hasn't returned with a long-desired new album, but instead, a revamped version of its sophomore full-length Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, which blasts back onto half a dozen tallies simultaneously. The exciting deluxe edition of the set reaches No. 1 on more than half of the rankings on which it appear, while at the same time, it just barely misses out on becoming the group's first champion on one highly competitive tally. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge Returns at No. 2 Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge reenters the Top Album Sales chart at No. 2. Luminate reports that in the past tracking period, the decades-old set sold 37,000 new copies. The week before the deluxe edition was available, it sold just 1,200. So, the collection experienced an almost 3,000% gain in pure purchases from one frame to the next. My Chemical Romance Matches Its Own Career Peak As Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge returns to the Top Album Sales ranking, My Chemical Romance ties its highest placement ever on the list of the bestselling full-lengths and EPs of any style in the United States. The group previously missed out on a No. 1 by just one rung back in November 2006, when The Black Parade debuted at No. 2. The rockers have seen two other collections — Danger Days: The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys and May Death Never Stop You — stall at Nos. 8 and 9, respectively. Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge Reappears at No. 1 While it misses the throne on the Top Album Sales ranking by one space, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge does reappear on the Vinyl Albums, Top Rock & Alternative Albums, Top Rock Albums, and Top Alternative Albums charts at No. 1. My Chemical Romance hits the summit for the first time on the vinyl tally and adds to its growing list of leaders on the other three genre-specific rankings. My Chemical Romance Hits the Billboard 200's Top 10 In the past tracking frame, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge moved a total of 43,600 equivalent units, and more than half of those were actual sales. That figure is enough to bring the emo groundbreaker into the top 10 on the Billboard 200, where My Chemical Romance has now scored four wins and where the title also reaches a new high point.

Metallica's Big Week On The Hard Rock Chart: A Comeback And A Milestone
Metallica lands two hits on Billboard's Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart, with "Enter Sandman" ... More holding at No. 2 and "Nothing Else Matters" returning at No. 9. SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - SEPTEMBER 01: Lead singer and guitarist James Hetfield of Metallica performs onstage at Lumen Field on September 01, 2024 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) Metallica is in the midst of another exciting week on Billboard's hard rock charts. The group can almost always be found on one or two of the genre-focused tallies, though some periods are bigger than others, depending on what's happening with the band and what competition it faces. Even with nothing brand new to promote, Metallica still manages an impressive showing, as the rock outfit continues to perform well with decades-old material that has hardly faded in popularity. Metallica Stands Alone With Two Hits This week, Metallica is the only act that fills more than one space on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart. The tally, which ranks the bestselling digital tunes in the hard rock genre in the United States, only features 10 spots, and Metallica claims 20% of all available positions. "Enter Sandman" almost recaptures the throne, but instead holds steady in the runner-up spot. The cut is bested by "Fight Like a Girl," the latest release by Evanescence and which debuts at No. 1. At the same time, "Nothing Else Matters" returns to the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales ranking, reentering the roster at No. 9. 'Enter Sandman' Reaches 700 weeks "Enter Sandman" hits a remarkable milestone this frame, as it has now spent 700 weeks on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart. That's an incredible achievement for any track on any Billboard tally – and especially for one to still be sitting at No. 2. Those 700 stays help 'Enter Sandman' far eclipse the longevity that "Nothing Else Matters" has enjoyed throughout the years. That single also reaches a new milestone, as this period marks its ninetieth frame on the same ranking. Metallica Joins Led Zeppelin With a Comeback Metallica earns one of two comebacks on the Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart this week as "Nothing Else Matters" returns at No. 9. "Stairway to Heaven" by Led Zeppelin also rocks back onto the list, appearing just one spot further north, at No. 8. Those classics are joined by a pair of debuts, including "Fight Like a Girl" and 'Hordes Of Khan' by Sabaton, which begins its time on the tally at No. 6.

Legendary '60s Band Hits Highest Chart Rank in Nearly 60 Years
Legendary '60s Band Hits Highest Chart Rank in Nearly 60 Years originally appeared on Parade. Nearly six decades after the release of one of their most iconic albums, The Beach Boys are back on the charts. Following the death of founding member Brian Wilson on June 11, the legendary band's music catalog saw a massive 184% surge in U.S. equivalent album units for the week ending June 12 — climbing to 31,000 units, according to Billboard. Their classic 1966 album Pet Sounds reentered the Billboard 200 at its highest ranking in nearly 60 years. But that wasn't the only album gaining traction. Sounds of Summer: The Very Best of The Beach Boys, released in 2003, jumped from No. 180 to No. 52 on the same chart. The renewed interest in their music comes in the wake of Wilson's passing. While his official cause of death has not been disclosed, reports noted that the 81-year-old struggled with dementia in his later years. The Beach Boys, formed in 1961, originally consisted of brothers Brian, Dennis and CarlWilson, their cousin Mike Love and friend Al Jardine. Together, they became one of the most influential bands in music history, pioneering the surf rock genre. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Jardine reflected on his final visit with Wilson. He and his wife, Mary Ann, stopped by the producer's home in Southern California while en route to Carmel. 'The first thing he did is he looked at me, right in my eyes. He said, 'You started the band,'' Jardine recalled. 'I said, 'Okay, well Brian, thank you, but you had a little bit to do with it too.'' Though Wilson's involvement with the group changed over the years, he and Jardine remained close. In recent times, Jardine would visit every few months to stay connected. 'The band would get together and sing for him. He wouldn't participate, but the idea was to keep him involved,' Jardine said. 'It was really cool. He was having difficulties, but he seemed to be recovering. So [his death] has been quite a shock.' Legendary '60s Band Hits Highest Chart Rank in Nearly 60 Years first appeared on Parade on Jun 18, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 18, 2025, where it first appeared.
