A.Chal’s new single “LMKK” has topped this week’s new music Latin poll.
In a poll published on Friday (Oct. 25) — in support of the weekly New Music Latin roundup and playlist, curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors — music fans voted for the Peruvian-American artist’s new track as their favorite music release of the week.
The Spanglish “LMKK” generated more than 89 percent of the vote, beating out other new releases that dropped this week including Alejandro Sanz’s “Palmeras en el Jardín,” Sech’s comeback tune “Toy Perdio,” Carín León & Gabito Ballesteros’ “Ese Vato No Te Queda” and Latin Mafia’s debut album, Todos Los Días Todo El Día, to name a few. Sanz’s single — which he previewed during 2024 Billboard Latin Music Week earlier this month — came in at second place.
Composed and produced by A.Chal himself during a trip to Milan, “LMKK” masterfully intertwines the nostalgic charm of reggaetón with contemporary alt-R&B, sampling the iconic “Yo Voy” by Zion & Lenox, featuring Daddy Yankee. “Yo te tengo all over my mind, and you know, I don’t care if tú no eres mine,” he chants in the elusive and chic track.
“On my last tour when I looked into the crowd, I saw different types of characters coming to see me that usually wouldn’t be in the same room,” he said in a press statement. “They all had their own distinct vibe, and championed different songs. That inspired me to make songs that all those groups could connect with and move to together equally. ‘LMKK’ is a small hint of that direction I’m leaning in to.”
In the previous New Music Latin poll, music fans crowned Greeicy and Jay Wheeler’s collaborative effort “¿Qué Te Pasó?” as the winner, with the song bringing in more than 99% of the vote.
