Milo J’s “Niño” has topped Billboard’s latest new Latin music poll, published on Sept. 26.

In support of the weekly New Music Latin roundup and playlist, curated by Billboard Latin and Billboard Español editors, music fans voted for the Argentine artist’s new single as their favorite music release of the week.

It was truly a tight race but “Niño,” part of Milo J’s latest album La Vida Era Más Corta, took the lead by just a few points, coming in first place with 34.9% of the vote. Following closely in second place is Corina Smith’s album, Menos Triste, Más Mami with 34.5% and in third, Sebastián Yatra’s “Canción Para Regresar” in collab with Lucho RK, Belinda and Gente de Zona with 27.9% of the vote.

Milo J’s “Niño” is a “poetic and moving ballad that fuses Argentine folklore with profound social reflection,” Billboard Español‘s Luisa Calle wrote about the song for New Music Latin. “Far from being simply a denunciation of marginalization, the song becomes a sincere embrace of vulnerable childhoods, highlighting the pain of those who grow up in poverty, neglect, and, often, are forced into crime as a means of survival.”

Since his breakthrough four years ago, the Argentine rapper and singer has teamed up with artists such as Peso Pluma, Duki, TINI, and Yahritza y Su Esencia. Most notably, Milo J’s “BZRP Music Sessions Vol. 57” with Bizarrap reached No. 1 on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 chart in 2023.

Editor’s Note: The weekly New Music Latin poll results are posted if the poll generates more than 1,000 votes.
