Latin Pop Albums
Record chart From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Latin Pop Albums is a record chart published on Billboard magazine. It features Latin music information of the Pop music genre. Established in June 1985, this chart features only full-length albums and like all album charts on Billboard, is based on sales. The information is compiled by Nielsen SoundScan from a sample that represents more than 90% of the U.S. music retail market which includes not only music stores and the music departments at electronics and department stores, but also direct-to-consumer transactions and Internet sales (both physical albums via Internet, and ones bought via digital downloads). A limited array of verifiable sales from concert venues is also tabulated.[1] On the week ending January 26, 2017, Billboard updated the methodology to compile the Latin Pop Albums chart into a multi-metric methodology to include track equivalent album units and streaming equivalent albums units.[2]
Reflexiones by José José was the first album to reach number-one on the chart on June 29, 1985.[3] The current number-one album on the chart is Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran by Shakira.[4]
Romance by Luis Miguel was number one chart Latin pop album since June 29, 1985 to June 25, 1994.[5]
Fijación Oral Vol. 1 by Shakira was the best-selling Latin pop album of the decade 2000–2009.[6]
