Pepe Aguilar rockets to No. 1 on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart (dated Sept. 14) with “Mira Quién Lo Dice,” as the song flies 18-1. That’s the biggest jump to the top in 2024, earning Greatest Gainer honors, awarded weekly to the song with the largest gain in audience.

“Mira Quién Lo Dice” registered 5.8 million in audience impressions, up 104%, on U.S. monitored regional Mexican stations during the Aug. 30-Sept. 5 tracking week, according to Luminate. That audience swell arrives from Univision stations WOJO-FM (Chicago), KSCA-FM (Los Angeles) and KLNO-FM (Dallas) during the tracking period.

The new leader gives Aguilar his third champ on Regional Mexican Airplay spanning over 26 years of career entries, since the No. 2-peaking “Por Mujeres Como Tú,” earned him a first top 10 in 1998.

Prior to “Mira Quién Lo Dice,” two other songs landed at the summit. Earlier, a collab with his son Leonardo Aguilar on “Bandido de Amores” gave the San Antonio, Texas-born singer-songwriter his second No. 1 (chart dated July 6). And in 2021, “Tus Desprecios” with El Fantasma, secured Aguilar his first ruler.

Among Aguilar’s three champs, “Mira Quién” endured the longest wait to the top, a 12-week canter, four weeks longer than his previous slowest, “Bandido,” which wrapped an eight-week run to No. 1 in July.

As “Mira Quién” rallies to the summit on Regional Mexican Airplay from No. 18, it scores the biggest jump to No. 1 in 2024, and the second-biggest this decade, trailing Maná and Eden Muñoz’s 18-rank climb to No. 1 last November.

In total, “Mira Quién” is the fourth of 407 champs on the 1994-launched Regional Mexican Airplay chart to jump from No. 18 or lower directly to No. 1. Here’s the recap:

Position Change, Song Title, Artist, Date Reach No. 1
28-1, “Poema De Amor,” Renan Almendarez Coello, Dec. 2, 2000
21-1, “Volé Muy Alto,” Los Huracanes del Norte, Nov. 24, 2007
19-1, “Amor Clandestino,” Maná & Eden Muñoz, Nov. 11, 2023
18-1, “Mira Quien Lo Dice,” Pepe Aguilar, Sept. 14, 2024

Beyond its Regional Mexican Airplay coronation, “Mira Quién” also vaults 31-4 on the overall Latin Airplay tally, for Aguilar’s 13th top 10 there.

The radio achievement follows Aguilar’s performance of “Mira Quién Lo Dice” on Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Kelly Clarkson show in July.
