'Tropicota' of Karol G review Latin music ... and a classic by George Michael

Music news

Karol G and Manu Chao, viral in Spain

Is Karol G in his “flop era”, as someone suggested recently in our forums? Well, the truth is not. ‘Tropicoqueta’ does not seem to be 4 times platinum as the previous ‘Tomorrow will be beautiful’, but it is far from being a “flop.”

The new Karol G album remains at number 4 of the most popular albums in Spain, in its 10th week of edition, and certified as a gold disc. Platinum must be when falling. In the United States, he endures around the Top 60 of the 200 Billboard: it is not Bad Bunny, but it has not fallen with the speed of other novelties.

As for Singles, ‘if I had known you before’ the entire campaign continues to resist in the Top 18 in Spain 62 weeks after its launch. But we also find ‘Rosa summer’ with Feid at number 27, ‘Latin Foreva’ in 70, ‘Papasito’ in 77 … and since this week we have a new incorporation in the top 100, from this same album.

This is ‘Traveling the world’, the song that has accredited Manu Chao. It enters 74 two months after the launch of ‘tropicoqueta’, because it is viralized in Tiktok. With her in the background, people share images of their vacation, landscape photos, aircraft landing and taking off and things like that. Perhaps because of the fame of Manu Chao in our country, ‘traveling around the world’ is only in Spanish lists, unlike other themes of Karol G. Disco in any case, 5 singles of the same album in a top 100 and this height of summer, it is not the most exact “flop” concept of “flop”, precisely.

Returning to the Spanish list, ‘You are going without (FAV)’ of relas B continues in number 1, ‘Me dizzo’ by Kidd Voodoo and JC Reyes already rises to position 2, and Russowsky approaches the top 10 with ‘Malibu’: it is already Top 12.

As for new tickets this week, the one that seems to be most traveled will be ‘Scat Pack’ by Clarent and Omar Courtz (30). They also enter ‘Mor’ by Feid (32), ‘Porte Porte’ by Anuel Aa, with Blessd and Ovy on the Drums (65), ‘Where’ of Kapo and Ryan Castro (68), ‘Do You Remember’ by Xiyo, Fernandez and Eix (80), ‘Yogurt and others (82), ‘Linda Cosita’ by Elena Rose and Justin Quiles (94). And finally, an amazing: ‘Before he has ten’ of Fito and Fitipaldis (98).
