[TaylorSwift 162,446]

Rosalía earns her second No. 1 on Billboard’s Latin Pop Albums chart as Motomami, her third studio album, blasts in at No. 1 on the April 2-dated ranking, debuting with the largest week of 2022 for a Latin pop album and the best opening week among all album debuts so far.

Largest week for a Latin pop album in 2022: Motomami opens with 17,000 equivalent album units earned in the U.S. after its first tracking week ending in March 24.. That’s by far the largest week of the year for a Latin pop album by units earned, surpassing the overpowering Ones by Selena, which earned 10,000 units in the week ending Jan. 1. 

Of Motomami’s 17,000 equivalent album units, SEA comprise 14,000 thousand units (equaling 19.37 million on-demand streams from the set’s tracks), album sales comprise 2,300, while TEA comprise 250 units.

Motomami bows at No. 3 on the all-Latin genre Top Latin Albums tally. It bests her previous No. 10 debut and peaked set El Mal Querer (Nov. 2018).
The set concurrently grants Rosalía her first appearance on the all-genre Billboard 200:

From Wikipedia:

"Latin music (Portuguese and Spanish: música latina) is a term used by the music industry as a catch-all arbitrary category for various styles of music from Latin America, Spain, Portugal, and the United States inspired by older Latin American, Spanish and Portuguese music genres, as well as music sung in the Spanish or Portuguese language."
