On Hot Latin Rhythm Songs, PONGO bolts from #22 to #14 in its 9th week. This is Rvssian’s first entry on this particular Billboard chart.
However, on Latin Airplay, the song which peaked at #41 in May, steps up a notch from #47 to #46. This is his fifth entry on Latin Airplay, with Nostalgico being his highest peak at #9 in 2021. PONGO re-enters Hot Latin Songs at #38 and becomes the eighth entry on the chart for the Head Concussion Records/Rich Immigrants boss.
His highest peak on this chart came in 2017 with Kippy Kush, featuring Farruko, Nicki Minaj, Bad Bunny, and 21 Savage stalling at #5. The song becomes Rvssian’s sixth entry on Latin Rhythm Airplay, cruising from #13 to #11 in its 16th week. Both Santa and Nostalgico are his biggest hits on this chart, with each peaking at #6.
