“Una Peda Menos,” released Feb. 21, marks Banda Los Recoditos’ ninth No. 1 on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart. It also serves as their first hit under the newly reintroduced Fono label, previously known as Fonovisa-Disa.
The song takes over the tally with the Greatest Gainer honors — awarded weekly to the song with the largest gain in audience — with 7.1 million audience impressions logged during the May 23-29 tracking week, according to Luminate. The single enjoyed a 34% growth in impressions compared to the week prior.
As “Una Peda” rises, it trades places with Luis Angel “El Flaco”’s “Vuelve a Mi,” which falls 1-5 after a 23% decline in audience impressions, to 5.2 million.
“We want to thank the audience, our fans, and our family because they’ve always supported us, and that’s what motivates us to continue bringing you, our music. God bless you!”
Elsewhere, “Una Peda” rises 12-4 on the overall Latin Airplay chart, for a new peak, after one week at No. 9 in May.
