The official FIFA World Cup song, “Dai Dai Dai” by Shakira and Burna Boy, takes over Decibeles’ Top 100 Colombia Hits chart
By Carlos Passage for Decibeles
This week, “Chévere (Premium Remix)” by Aria Vega and Ryan Castro falls from the top spot on the national chart of the most popular songs in Colombia after nearly three months at number one on the Top 100 Colombia Hits chart, which 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 song of the World Cup currently being held in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.
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 that fans prefer each week.
This week, the song by the Colombian and Nigerian artists received 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 the numbers are extraordinary, but its Achilles’ heel is Spotify, where it hasn’t achieved smash hit status in Colombia. The song currently sits at number 18 on the platform (725,025 plays), while the biggest hit of the week there is far behind: “Tuki Tuki” by Kris R and Geeze Dee, which accumulated 1,348,873 streams.
In any case, this week “Dai Dai Dai” only needed to top the airplay charts (provided by Decibeles) and YouTube to become the most popular song of the week in Colombia.
Former number one hit, “Chévere (Premium Remix)” by Aria Vega and Ryan Castro, saw its popularity decline and dropped to fourth place after spending 11 weeks at the top.
Aria Vega is scheduled to perform on Saturday, June 27th at the Coke Studio Sessions, an event taking place at Tribuna Club, in the North Parking Lot of El Campín Stadium.
In second place, jumping from third this week on the Colombia Hits Top 100, is Mexican artist Lenin Ramírez with “Todo Lo Fue.” The regional artist has been making strong moves in the Top 10. Meanwhile, “Todo Lo Fue” is currently number 3 on Billboard’s Mexico Songs chart, surpassed only by Nerón Vega (“Nalguita y Teta”) and Fuerza Regida (“Tu Sancho”), at number 1 and 2 respectively.
The third position this week on the Colombia Hits Top 100 also belongs to a former number one hit: “La Villa” by Ryan Castro. Ryan Castro has confirmed his US tour. The 16-date tour will kick off on September 6 at the HQ2 Beachclub at the Ocean Casino Resort in New Jersey and wrap up on October 10 in Las Vegas. During the month-long tour, the Colombian sensation will make stops in Boston, Orlando, Nashville, San Antonio, and Las Vegas, among other major cities.
The Sendé: The Last Dance tour marks the second US leg 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 concert in his hometown, the Atanasio Girardot Stadium in Medellín, earlier this year.
Luister La Voz drops to fifth place this week with “La María.” The song has garnered 876 radio plays, 830,763 streams on Spotify, and 1,735,734 views on YouTube.
Luister La Voz will perform at the New Year’s Eve party at the Hotel Las Americas in Cartagena on December 31st, alongside Carlos Vives, Tito Nieves, and Eddy Herrera.
The only new entry in the Top 10 this week on the Top 100 Colombia Hits chart is Blessed and Los Money Makers with “Superstar,” which has garnered 447 airplays, an impressive 1,094,098 streams on Spotify, and 1,075,048 views on YouTube.
The rest of the Top 10 is as follows:
No. 6: “Te Entiendo,” Maizak
No. 7: “Pico y Chao,” W Sound
No. 9: “Ganas,” Kris R.
No. 10: “Ozono,” Luister LA Voz
The Top 100 Colombia Hits chart compiles the 100 most popular songs across all genres each week, ranked according to streaming data (YouTube/Spotify) and ACR Decibeles’ real-time radio airplay monitoring.
Each of the three variables—YouTube views, Spotify streams, and Decibeles airplay—has equal weight in the chart (33.3%).
