Who Are The Top Latin Music Artists on YouTube?

What’s driving the success of Latin music? A variety of types by way of the Caribbean, South America and Mexico, in accordance with an evaluation by YouTube. “There isn’t any single signature sound or single nation that serves as the focus,” says music developments supervisor Kevin Meenan

4 years after the explosive success of “Despacito” — a track carried out by two Puerto Rican artists, Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee, and produced by two Colombians, Mauricio Rengifo and Andrés Torres — Latin music has continued to develop worldwide, maybe partly because of its cross-pollination and variety. “There isn’t any single signature sound or single nation that serves as the focus,” says YouTube music developments supervisor Kevin Meenan. “We’re seeing such a variety of expertise from throughout the musical and geographic panorama of the area escape and interact with the platform in distinctive methods.”

When Meenan spoke to Billboard in mid-September, over 30% of the entries in YouTube’s International High Songs chart featured artists from Latin America: Puerto Rico, Colombia, Argentina, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Panama and Brazil. “These entries really characterize the various sounds from your complete area,” says Meenan.

That is among the major takeaways from an evaluation of Latin music video views and subscribers on YouTube, considered one of Billboard’s companions within the compilation of its world charts. For the interval spanning July 15, 2020, to July 14, 2021, Meenan and his workforce ranked the highest Latin music artists globally — all of whom are Puerto Rican or Colombian acts — and in 10 Spanish-language international locations and Brazil. For these 11 territories, the platform additionally ranked the highest 10 acts general and the highest 5 homegrown acts in every.

These rankings comply with an interview with Meenan wherein he shares among the developments and developments that emerged from YouTube’s exploration of the style, in addition to some ideas on its future.

Based mostly on this evaluation, what developments are you seeing?
Kevin Meenan One is the prevalence of extra conventional genres throughout our charts. That is notably true with regional Mexican, with artists like Christian Nodal and Grupo Firme actually changing into mainstays on each of YouTube’s International and U.S. High Songs charts, in addition to charts all through Latin America. Whereas the music has all the time had a powerful presence, it has simply been increasingly prevalent during the last 12 months. Grupo Firme not too long ago landed three songs on the U.S. High Songs chart and 10 songs within the Mexico High Songs chart in a single week. And Christian Nodal — who final 12 months landed his first entry within the Billion Views Membership — scored the primary International High Songs chart No. 1 by a regional Mexican artist together with his Gera MX collab, “Botella Tras Botella.”

What does that collaboration let you know concerning the evolution of Latin music?
It touches on a broader pattern within the area: A youthful technology of forward-thinking artists is infusing conventional genres they grew up with with extra fashionable sounds and aesthetics. A giant story there was Nataneal Cano’s Corridos Tumbados. Rancho Humilde’s YouTube channel has additionally been important to this story, reimagining each the sounds and the visuals historically tied to the genres.  And it has resonated with followers — the channel has earned over 5 million subs and netted over 3.3 billion views since its launch.

The place else are you seeing this mixture of conventional and modern?
In Argentina, we now have seen L-GANTE and his self-described cumbia 420 motion actually deliver new power to cumbia. Artists like The La Planta in Uruguay and Raymix in Mexico have additionally fused extra fashionable sounds with the cumbia custom. In Brazil, artists proceed to place a contemporary spin on sertanejo, maintaining it on the prime of our charts within the nation. And searching past Latin America, Rosalía continues to increase on flamenco in thrilling new methods. This recontextualizing and updating of genres with deep roots within the area has actually resonated with followers on YouTube, and is a pattern we sit up for seeing extra of in Latin America and past.

Sony Music Latin’s U.S. president not too long ago stated in a Billboard interview that collaborations are one of many cornerstones of the Latin explosion. Are you continue to seeing that play out?
As I famous earlier, the Christian Nodal and rapper Gera MX team-up on “Botella Tras Botella” was an enormous second on YouTube this 12 months and speaks to a bigger theme we proceed to see with the facility of well-thought-out collaborations. This isn’t a wholly new phenomenon. For years, our charts have been dominated by supergroup collaborations and remixes that includes reggaetón powerhouses from all through the area.  However in 2021, the pattern stretches far past reggaetón, with collaborations now often crossing each borders and genres. Dangerous Bunny not too long ago teamed up with Aventura for a bachata-influenced reggaetón tune. Puerto Rican rapper Guaynaa earlier this 12 months collaborated with cumbia powerhouse Los Ángeles Azules. Spain’s Rosalía and Colombia’s J Balvin individually teamed up with Dominican Republic expertise Tokischa for dembow-leaning hits in early September and late August, respectively. And stateside, Snoop has teamed up with Banda MS. What’s so compelling is how genuine the collaborations are and the way seamlessly the artists can transfer from style to style.

What developments are you seeing in music video manufacturing by Latin acts?
As we have a look at the highest artists from area to area, one factor [that is] a typical theme is the distinctive methods they’ve gone past conventional music movies on their official artist channels.

In Argentina, for instance, Bizarrap’s prolific BZRP Music Periods video sequence — which options collaborations with expertise from all through Latin America and past — has actually served as a pressure within the area and past. The 40-plus-part sequence has amassed over 2.5 billion views, with a number of classes hitting our world chart.

In Brazil, sertanejo artists have taken the artwork of the livestream to a complete new degree all through the pandemic. Marília Mendonça final 12 months noticed 3.3 million peak concurrents on a livestream — a brand new report for a music occasion on YouTube.  And naturally, the Canal KondZilla channel continues to function a house base for Brazil’s vibrant baile funk scene. The channel has amassed a jaw-dropping 64.8 million subscribers up to now, inserting him among the many prime 25 most subscribed channels on the platform.

In Mexico, Grupo Firme simply dropped a sequence of 10 dwell performances on YouTube in a single day, with every rapidly surpassing 1 million views and a number of other charting throughout markets. It’s a well-recognized format within the area, with artists often dropping dwell performances in lieu of studio releases. These efficiency clips seize the power of the music in a singular method.

If you put collectively an evaluation of prime music video artists for Billboard, you talked about how Tanzania’s Diamond Platnumz  posts making-of and behind-the-scenes YouTube movies that enhance his subscriber numbers. Do you see that taking place within the Latin style?
Nicky Jam this 12 months launched The Rockstar Present by Nicky Jam, the place he sits down with company like Maluma, Sech, Luis Fonsi and Rauw Alejandro for prolonged discussions on music and life. Panama’s reggaetón veteran El Chombo has developed right into a form of music historian on his channel, often importing clips the place he discusses and deconstructs the work of artists from the world over.

Artists like Camilo, Sech, J Balvin and Mariá Becerra — who began as a YouTube creator — all often invite followers behind the scenes with content material like mini-documentaries or interviews with their collaborators. And taking issues in additional surprising instructions, Maluma final 12 months interviewed himself as his Papi Juancho alter ego and Raymix not too long ago posted an in depth keytar tutorial for his newest launch.

It’s not simply the artists’ channels themselves the place you see artists inviting followers behind the scenes. Channels like Mexico-based En Cortinas Con Luisto y Berth have emerged as a go-to vacation spot for artists from all through the area.

Do you see any musical types or territories blowing up within the close to future?
Dembow is having a breakout 12 months, with El Alfa, particularly, rising as a real mainstay on our International High Artists chart and spreading the sound far past the Dominican Republic.  In early September and late August, we noticed each Rosalía and J Balvin, with “Linda” and “Perra,” respectively, discover the sound with their collaborations that includes the rising Dominican Republic-bred expertise Tokischa.

Argentina’s rising dominance on the worldwide charts — notably with extra conventional rappers and lyricists — can be an thrilling pattern to look at. Bizarrap’s channel has been central to the scene, with regional skills like Nicki Nicole, Khea, Cazzu, Duki and Trueno all making appearances. In some ways, the rise is, partly, the continuation of the freestyle rap custom, which continues to search out an viewers all through Latin America on YouTube. Channels like Crimson Bull’s Batalla de los Gallos and City Roosters put up huge numbers, hinting on the vibrant scene for up-and-coming rap expertise within the area.
