Calle 24, the stage name of Diego Millán, has earned his first Billboard No. 1 — and he brought Fuerza Regida along for the ride. Their collaboration "Noche Perfecta" climbed 4-1 on the Billboard Latin Airplay chart dated Aug. 8, 2026, giving Calle 24 his first chart-topper and Fuerza Regida its fifth on that ranking.

The track didn't stop at one summit. "Noche Perfecta" also rose 2-1 on Billboard's Regional Mexican Airplay chart in the same week, completing a double No. 1 across the two Latin radio rankings. The climb was driven by a 12% growth in audience impressions, reaching 6.9 million during the tracking week ending July 30, according to the data firm Luminate. (Billboard)

For Millán, the journey to No. 1 has been swift. "Noche Perfecta" was his first radio-chart entry, period — debuting on the Regional Mexican Airplay chart in May and on the broader Latin Airplay chart in June before reaching the top in early August. The song, released April 9 on Street Mob Records as part of Calle 24's album Eterno, is the fifth Billboard-charting partnership between the two acts but the first to reach No. 1 together. Its official music video on YouTube has drawn roughly 16 million views since release. (YouTube)

For Fuerza Regida, the chart adds to an already deep résumé. "Noche Perfecta" jumped 11-10 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart — a multi-metric ranking that blends streaming, sales and airplay — giving the group its 20th top 10 there. That figure ties Fuerza Regida with Intocable and Los Tigres del Norte for the most top 10s among regional Mexican groups since Hot Latin Songs began in 1986. (Billboard)

The track also took Calle 24 to a new peak of No. 4 on the Billboard Hot Regional Mexican Songs chart, his second top 10 on that ranking, which launched in April 2025. Fuerza Regida, meanwhile, collected its 14th top 10 on that same chart — the most of any act since it was introduced. (Billboard)

On the current Latin Airplay chart, "Noche Perfecta" sits at No. 1, ahead of Farruko, Greeicy and Steve Aoki's "YAPAQUE" at No. 2 and the FIFA World Cup official song "Dai Dai" at No. 3. (Billboard)

Calle 24's earlier chart footprint includes "Que Onda," which also features Chino Pacas and reached No. 5 on Hot Latin Songs in late 2023 — his first top 10 on that chart. The jump from a first top 10 to a first No. 1 has taken less than three years.
