Luis Miguel Tops Billboard's Latin Album Charts

By Michael Lopez

It’s hard to believe Luis Miguel has been making music for 30 years now (especially since he’s only 40 years old). But that’s exactly what his newest self-titled record is meant to celebrate. And proving once again that he’s at the top of his game, Luis Miguel topped the Billboard’s Latin Album Charts on its first week of release!

And knocking out Enrique’s Euphoria from the #1 spot was no easy feat. Iglesias has been dominating the charts for weeks, holding steady against heavy hitters like Prince Royce and Camila. But Enrique proved no match for Luis, who sold 9,000 units in less than seven days!

As we all know, Luismi has a VERY dedicated fanbase and with this being his first album in two years, the anticipation was huge. Sporting a cool white fedora on the cover and kicking off radio play with a new single called, “Labios de Miel” (which also hit #1), everything about the record screams vintage Miguel.

Of course the next question on everyone’s minds is, when do we get to see him live? Well Luis recently finished a stint at Caesar’s Palace in Vegas and, according to his website, will be hitting South America in November. And now that he’s back in good health, we’re hoping we to hear about upcoming stateside dates very soon!
