Piso 21 Scores First No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Pop Airplay with "La Misión"

The Colombian band Piso 21 continues to reach new heights in their career with their latest hit, “La Misión,” featuring Puerto Rican superstar Wisin. The track has secured the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Latin Pop Airplay chart for the week of August 17, 2024. This achievement marks a significant milestone for the group, as it’s their first time reaching the top of this chart.

A Dream Collaboration Turns into Chart-Topping Success

Piso 21’s members are thrilled with the success of “La Misión.” El Profe, one of the group’s members, expressed their excitement to Billboard, stating, "Reaching No. 1 on U.S. radio with a song like ‘La Misión’ is a double win for us: collaborating with Wisin was already a dream come true." The collaboration blends Piso 21’s signature sound with Wisin’s reggaeton flair, creating a track that resonates with fans across genres.

“La Misión” Quickly Dominates Charts

A Rapid Climb Across the Charts

“La Misión,” released on May 2, quickly climbed the charts, making a strong impression on U.S. radio. Within its first month, the song broke into the Top 10 of both pop and urban charts, reflecting its widespread appeal. Since its release, the track has amassed 4.5 million streams on Spotify and its music video has garnered over 3.6 million views on YouTube, proving the song’s popularity among listeners.

A Legacy of Chart Success

While this is Piso 21’s first No. 1 on the Latin Pop Airplay chart, it’s not their first time in the Top 10. Previous hits like “Más De La Una” featuring Maluma also saw significant chart success. However, “La Misión” has taken their success to a new level, setting a high standard for their upcoming projects.

Looking Ahead: New Album and More

“La Misión” serves as the lead single for Piso 21’s upcoming album, set for release later this year. Produced by Icon Music, the track is a classic reggaeton anthem that showcases the group’s creative growth while allowing Wisin to add his distinctive style to the mix. The collaboration demonstrates how both artists’ musical worlds can merge to create something powerful and memorable.

Piso 21’s Global Impact and Milestones

Piso 21’s influence in the global music scene continues to grow. The band recently celebrated another milestone as their classic hit “Déjala Que Vuelva” surpassed 2 billion views on YouTube, a testament to their enduring popularity.
