Danny Ocean and Kapo nab the No. 1 spot on Billboard’s Latin Pop Airplay chart thanks to their maiden collab, “Imagínate,” which advances 3-1 on the March 15-dated ranking. Kapo locks his first No. 1 on the tally, Ocean grabs his second.
For the tracking week Feb. 28-March 6, “Imagínate” registered 6 million audience impressions in the U.S., sparked by 19% growth from the week prior, according to Luminate. The song takes the Greatest Gainer honors, awarded weekly to the song with the largest audience increase.
“Thank you all for the unconditional support and for helping us achieve this No. 1 with Kapo,” Ocean tells Billboard. “It’s so nice to see how a song that talks about taking that person you love to that place you miss so much connects so strongly with everyone.”
Ocean’s “Imagínate” was released Nov. 7, 2024, on Atlantic/ Warner Latina. It debuted at No. 14 last December and has spent 11 weeks in the top 10 out of its 12-week span.
“Extremely happy with everything surrounding ‘Imagínate,’” Kapo tells Billboard. “This is a song that we composed with great enthusiasm, that flows, and thank God we were able to connect so well with Danny. He’s an artist that I have admired and respected for a long time. It’s an honor to record a song with one of your favorite artists, and for it to become a hit.”
With “Imagínate,” Ocean takes his second Latin Pop Airplay chart topper in less than a year, after “Amor” ruled for two weeks in June 2024. In between the latter and “Imagínate,” the Venezuelan rose as high as No. 6 with “Ley Universal” last October. In sum, Ocean has managed five top 10s.
As for Kapo, “Imagínate” marks his maiden No. 1 on the Latin pop radio ranking. The Colombian launched his charts career in August 2024, when “Ohnana” populated the charts, snatching his first No. 1 on any Billboard ranking last November. The song ruled Latin Rhythm Airplay for 11 weeks. He soon placed four other top 10s, including “Imagínate” which lifts 7-5 on the current chart.
The song joins two other Kapo songs in the top 10 on Latin Rhythm Airplay, “Uwaie,” for its second week at No. 4 high and “Más Que Tú,” with Ozuna, a 9-8 jump.
“We are so proud of our fans, who are the ones who take us to No. 1,” Kapo adds. “This is incredible, and we are extremely thankful with the fans, our team and with Billboard.”
Kapo has much to celebrate this week. In addition to his first No. 1 on Latin Pop Airplay, he announced today (March 11) the launch of his first tour ‘Por Si Alguien Nos Escucha’ through CMN (Cárdenas Marketing Network). The 24-date run is set to start in Jacksonville, Fla., on Mar. 13 and wrap up in Chicago on May 25.
