For any other artist, the chart bump that Bad Bunny experienced this week following the Grammys would be the catalog streaming story of their year.
With his Debi Tirar Más Fotos album experiencing massive gains after its historic album of the year win — and after the artist born Benito Antonio Martinez Ocasio was spotlit on the CBS Feb. 1 Grammy broadcast seemingly every five minutes — Bad Bunny had four songs from the set re-enter the Billboard Hot 100 dated Feb. 14 (along with a fifth, “Voy a Llevarte Pa PR,” zooming 85-47), with the quasi-title track “DtMF” even re-entering the top 10, at No. 10. Only Don Toliver, who sees all 18 tracks from his OCTANE album enter the chart this week, and Olivia Dean, whose still-growing blockbuster The Art of Loving sports six tracks on the chart, have more songs on the Hot 100 this week than Bad Bunny.
And yet, this week looks to be only the prelude. The true deluge of El Conejo Malo on the Hot 100 should be coming next week — following his headlining performance at halftime of Super Bowl LX on Sunday (Feb. 9), which was watched by over 128 million people in this country alone — which could include a swarm of double-digit new Bad Bunny entries, and some titles challenging for the very top of the chart.
Even before the Sunday performance, Bad Bunny’s numbers were still rising from Grammy week: On Saturday (Feb. 8), Bad Bunny already occupied all six of the Spotify Daily Top Songs USA chart, each with over twice the stream count that they posted the previous Monday (Feb. 2) directly after the Grammys. Those numbers, of course, continued to grow over this Sunday and particularly Monday — with Bad Bunny posting a near-career-best 98 million official on-demand U.S. streams on Monday, according to Luminate, and occupying the top nine spots (and 16 of the top 25) on the Spotify daily chart. That included over 5.7 million plays for the top song, “DtMF,” a single-day best for any song in 2026. (His Apple Music performance was similarly dominant, owning the top six spots on the real-time chart in the days following the halftime show.)
Even as of Wednesday (Feb. 11), Bad Bunny’s stream counts have receded, but his dominance has hardly fallen off — he still commands the top five spots on both the Spotify daily chart and the Apple Music real-time chart, with “DtMF” still occupying the No. 1 spot on both. With the tracking week ending at the close of Thursday (Feb. 12), and Bad Bunny having blanketed the top of those charts for essentially the entire week — even on the day of the much-anticipated Spotify and Apple Music premiere of Taylor Swift’s “Opalite” video (Feb. 6), the song didn’t unseat “DtMF” on either DSP’s listings — and also ranking multiple songs towards the top of the iTunes real-time chart, his Hot 100 presence next week is sure to be massive.
But just how massive? Well, there could be a double-digit total of Bad Bunny songs in contention for this week’s Hot 100 — most from DTMF, but also older songs like 2023’s “Monaco,” 2022’s “Tití Me Preguntó” and 2020’s “Yo Perreo Sola,” all of which he also performed during the halftime show (with older songs needing to rank in the top 50, per chart rules). Those aren’t the only catalog songs that are getting sizeable bumps, though: “La Cancion,” for instance, from Bad Bunny and J Balvin’s collaborative 2019 EP Oasis, might also re-enter in the top 40 or higher, despite not being included in the halftime set. (Its excellent streaming performance this past week might be explained by its placement as one of his top songs — the highest of his non-DTMF songs, in fact — on his Spotify “Popular” page.)
Some of these songs might also be heading for new peaks on the chart. Among catalog songs, “La Cancion,” which peaked at No. 84 on the Hot 100 in 2019, is almost sure to beat that next week. But most of the songs threatening new highs on the chart come from Debí Tirar Más Fotos, including each of the album’s four longest-lasting hits: “DtMF,” “Baile Inolvidable,” “Nuevayol” and “EoO.”
All four of those songs were performed at the halftime show, and all four of them should have strong chances of making the top 10 next week, having lasted in the top five of the Spotify and Apple Music charts for nearly the entire week. (The fifth, “Titi,” should also threaten the top 10, though it may have difficulty beating out its original No. 5 peak on the chart.”) “EoO” should sail past its original No. 24 peak on the chart and “Nuevayol” has seen robust-enough tallies this week that it should beat out its original No. 8 peak, as well.
The remaining two, “DtMF” and “Baile Inolvidable,” have the least room for error — since they originally peaked at No. 2 and No. 3, respectively, upon their parent album’s first week topping the Billboard 200, back in January 2025. Will they be able to beat out even those mighty peaks by commanding the top two on the chart next week?
The possibility is a strong one. “DtMF” and “Baile” have resided atop the Spotify and Apple Music listings since Sunday, maintaining a sizeable lead on any non-Bad Bunny titles. “DtMF,” in particular, has really blown by the competition — on Monday, its Spotify U.S. stream total was nearly five times the nearest non-Bad Bunny song — and it also remains at No. 3 on the iTunes realtime sales chart, behind only his own “Tití,” and his Turning Point USA halftime show competitor Kid Rock’s cover of Cody Johnson’s “‘Til You Can’t.”
If “DtMF” is able to capture the No. 1 spot, it will be something of a career first for Bad Bunny. He has scored a No. 1 on the Hot 100 before, alongside Cardi B and J Balvin on the 2018 smash “I Like It,” but has yet to appear unaccompanied on a No. 1, or score a No. 1 from any of his own albums, with “DtMF” marking his only previous visit to the runner-up spot.
Regardless, Bad Bunny is sure to be the dominant story on the Billboard Hot 100 next week — with perhaps a greater presence on the chart than we’ve ever seen for a living artist who hasn’t even released an album in the past 12 months.
