La Fiera de Ojinaga celebrates its first coronation on a Billboard chart with “La Luna de Miel” as the single ascends 2-1 on the Regional Mexican Airplay ranking (dated Aug. 27).
“La Luna de Miel,” released Feb. 10 via Azteca Records, trades places with La Maquinaria Norteña’s “50 y Cincuenta” — after the latter’s one-week in charge — despite a 2% dip in audience impressions, to 5.9 million, earned in the U.S. in the week ending Aug. 21, according to Luminate.
La Fiera de Ojinaga reigns in its 11th visit to the chart, dating back to the band’s first appearance in 2018. It took two years for the Chihuahua natives to score its first top 10, through the No. 5-peaking “En Otro Canal” in Oct. 2020. Further, the band narrowly missed the No. 1 spot on Regional Mexican Airplay earlier this year when “No Paras de Hacerme Feliz” reached No. 2 in Feb. 12-dated survey.
“La Luna” concurrently makes progress on the all-genre Latin Airplay tally with a No. 9 lift, after spending two weeks at No. 10.
La Fiera, the five-member ensemble fronted by Mauricio “Pikaro” Palma, is one of the leaders of the norteño-with-sax format within Regional Mexican music.
