Karol G:
If you ask me what my dream is, what is my main dream? That the world knows your name — that would be awesome.
Narrator:
Karol G is rocking the Billboard charts, and Billboard‘s Woman of the Year honoree is showing no signs of slowing down. This is Billboard Explains: Woman of the Year Karol G.
The Colombian superstar’s breaking records and cementing her place in Latin music history. She has 30 songs on the Billboard Hot 100, including one top 10: “TQG,” alongside fellow powerhouse Shakira in 2023; that one hit No.7.
But it’s the Hot Latin Songs chart where Karol G really shines. She has 63 songs on that chart, the most of all time for a woman artist. Of those 63, 26 of them hit the top 10 and 8 are No. 1: a collab with Angel, Daddy Yankee, Ozuna and J Balvin spent 12 weeks at the top, and “Mamiii” alongside Becky G, with 10 weeks at the top. In fact, she has the third most No. 1s among women on the Hot Latin Songs chart after Gloria Estefan with 15 and Shakira with 13.
Her Grammy winning album Mañana Será Bonito hit No.1 on the Billboard 200, the first ever all-Spanish language No. 1 album by a female artist.
Congratulations to Billboard’s Woman of the Year, Karol G. Keep making some breaking records.
