Fuerza Regida’s ‘Bebe Dame’ With Grupo Frontera Expands Its Domination Across Latin Charts

Fuerza Regida and Grupo Frontera‘s “Bebe Dame” expands its chart-topping domination as their second collab ascends from the runner-up slot to lead Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart (dated March 25). The track dethrones Bizarrap and Shakira’s “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53” after four nonconsecutive weeks on top.

Strong airplay across Latin radio stations fuels “Bebe Dame” to No. 1 in its eighth week after it registered 11.5 million in audience impressions, up 14%, in the U.S. in the week ending March 16, according to Luminate.

In addition to its leadership across Hot Latin Songs (two weeks; Jan. 21 and March 4) and Regional Mexican Airplay, where it holds for a second week at the penthouse, “Bebe Dame” now rules the all-genre Latin Airplay ranking, a first champ for both Fuerza Regida and Grupo Frontera.

While Regida reached a No. 14 high with “Se Acabó,” with Lenin Ramirez and Banda Renovación, last December, Grupo Frontera captures its third top 10 among four career entries. Previously, the five-member ensemble secured a No. 4 high through “Que Vuelvas,” with Carin León.

“Bebe Dame’s” new achievement also secures a first chart topper for labels Street Mob and BorderKid. It’s the third instance of an indie label sending a song to No. 1 on Latin Airplay in 2023, after Rimas Music through Bad Bunny and Rauw Alejandro’s “Party” (Feb. 11-dated list) and DALE Play with “Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53” (four weeks between Feb. and March).

Elsewhere, “Bebe Dame” dips 2-3 on the multimetric Hot Latin Songs chart with declines in both streaming activity and digital sales. The song logged 10.1 million U.S. clicks, a 6% drop from the prior week, and sold a little less than 1,000 downloads, a 4% decrease, dropping 2-4 on Latin Digital Song Sales.

Further, on the overall Billboard Hot 100 chart, “Bebe Dame” rallies 64-47, after it peaked at No. 25 in chart dated Jan. 28.
