Hot Latin Songs

Hot Latin Songs (formerly Hot Latin Tracks and Top Latin Songs) is a record chart published by Billboard magazine. It is often recognized as the most important music chart for Spanish language Latin music in the American music market. It was established by the magazine on September 6, 1986 with La Guirnalda by Rocío Dúrcal being the first song to reach number-one. The chart is based on airplay on Latin music stations. Songs on the chart are not necessarily in Spanish language, since the chart inception a few songs in English language and Portuguese also have charted. In 1994, three charts were introduced in addition to Top Latin Songs: Latin Pop Airplay which deals with pop songs whether or not it is Spanish-language, Latin Regional Mexican Airplay which dealt with different of styles of Mexican genres, and Latin Tropical Airplay which focuses on the genres of tropical music. In 2005, the Latin Rhythm Airplay chart was introduced in response to the growing influence of Latin hip-hop and reggaeton. Unlike the other charts, the Latin Rhythm Airplay charts are not released to the public. Listings of the Top Latin Songs are also shown on Telemundo's music page through a partnership between the two companies.

The current number-one for the Hot Latin Songs is "Promise" by Romeo Santos.
