Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart ranks songs played on Latin-format radio stations in the United States, using audience estimates. A No. 1 on the chart records a song’s radio reach in that format; it is separate from rankings based on sales or streaming.

The chart has tracked Latin radio hits for decades, allowing artists’ number of No. 1 songs to be compared over time. Such records offer one measure of radio success, though they do not represent every way listeners hear music.
