Kenia OS and Steve Aoki’s “Replay” has topped this week’s new music Latin poll.
In a poll published on Friday (Aug. 16) — in support of the weekly New Music Latin roundup and playlist, curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — music fans voted for Kenia and Aoki’s first collaborative effort as their favorite music release of the week.
“Replay” generated over 53% of the week’s votes, beating out other new releases that dropped, including new studio albums by Eden Muñoz (Eden) and Nio Garcia (Anto-Nio), as well as Myke Towers and Darell’s “Otra Noche,” Jessi Uribe’s “Si Ya Me Voy,” and Javiera Mena’s “Volver a Llorar,” among others.
Coming in second place was Grupo Firme and Demi Lovato’s flirtatious dance collaboration, “Chula,” where the artists mesh electronic music with banda elements.
In this week’s winning track, Mexican pop star Kenia OS teamed up with renowned DJ Steve Aoki, proving her versatility by navigating from sugary pop to pulsating EDM. “This track represents something big not only for me, but also to put Mexico on the global map,” the Mexican artist expressed in a press statement. “I’ve always been a fan of Steve Aoki and I think we managed to capture that feeling of an endless night. I wanted to give them a different and special song, and what better way to do it than by working with the coolest DJ in the world.”
Last week, music fans crowned Kim Loaiza and Codiciado’s “QuesoXTE” as the winner, bringing in more than 60% of the vote. See the final results of this week’s new music Latin poll below.
