El de Las R’s is registering one of his strongest weeks yet: his single “Beretta” has broken into the top five of Billboard’s Hot Latin Songs as streaming numbers spike, while his debut album Estilo R’s climbs several Latin and regional charts. The movements underline growing interest in corridos and regional trap as streaming continues to drive chart performance.
How the numbers moved this week
According to Luminate, “Beretta” reached No. 5 on the multi-metric Hot Latin Songs chart after registering about 2.8 million official streams in the U.S. during the tracking week ending July 9 — an 18% increase from the previous week. That streaming gain pushed the song to a new high at No. 12 on Latin Streaming Songs, earning it the chart’s Greatest Gainer distinction.
The single is also climbing on the genre-specific list: on Hot Regional Mexican Songs, “Beretta” moved up to No. 2.
- “Beretta”: Hot Latin Songs — No. 5 (new peak); Hot Regional Mexican Songs — No. 2
- “La Cheyenne”: Hot Latin Songs — No. 13 (up from No. 20); Hot Regional Mexican Songs — No. 6
- Estilo R’s (album): Top Regional Mexican Albums — No. 15 with ~5,000 equivalent album units (week-over-week +20%); Top Latin Albums — No. 29
Album gains and context
Released by Dinero Nuevo Records, Estilo R’s is a seven-track debut that first entered the Top Regional Mexican Albums chart at No. 25 in June. After a brief rise to No. 19 last week, the collection has advanced again to a new peak at No. 15, registering roughly 5,000 equivalent album units this week — a 20% increase versus the previous tracking period.
The album’s upward movement on the overall Top Latin Albums chart — from No. 39 to No. 29 — highlights a growing crossover beyond strictly regional listeners.
What this means
The combined streaming uplift for “Beretta” and the album’s steady gains suggest sustained listener engagement, likely aided by playlist placements and social-media visibility. For a debut project, consistent rises across both streaming and album-equivalent metrics point to momentum that can translate into more radio exposure and touring demand.
While streaming remains the primary engine for chart shifts, the songs’ parallel progress on radio-inclusive rankings like Hot Latin Songs indicates a broader pickup across different platforms.
For fans and industry watchers, El de Las R’s current run is worth tracking: these chart moves mark an important early-career milestone and reinforce the commercial vitality of regional Mexican subgenres in today’s streaming landscape.
