The jump gives indie label Socios its second top 10 on the 40-deep tally, after León’s own “Indispensable” led for three consecutive weeks in 2023.
“Alch Sí’s” 14-position surge is the biggest jump of 2024 so far and the largest gain since Los Angeles Azules and Maria Becerra’s “El Amor De Mi Vida” rallied 38-9 in its second week last September.
