La Arrolladora Banda El Limón de René Camacho has secured its 18th No. 1 hit on Billboard’s Regional Mexican Airplay chart with “Aquí Hay Para Llevar.” The catchy tune climbed from the No. 2 spot to claim the top position on the chart dated September 7th, 2024.
A Triumphant Return to the Top
“Aquí Hay Para Llevar” marks Banda El Limón’s first chart-topper since their collaboration with Alejandro Fernández on “Nunca Dudes en Llamarme” reigned supreme for a week in September 2022. In the interim, the renowned Sinaloan group achieved two more top 10 hits, including “Ya Me la Debías,” which peaked at No. 10 in February.
The Making of a Hit
Released on April 19th under the Disa/UMLE label, “Aquí Hay Para Llevar” reached the pinnacle of the Regional Mexican Airplay chart with an impressive 6.6 million audience impressions in the U.S. during the tracking week of September 23-29, according to Luminate. This achievement reflects an 11% surge compared to the preceding week.
The song was brought to life through the collaborative efforts of producer Fernando Camacho and esteemed songwriters Edgar Barrera and Luis Mexia. Both Barrera and Mexia are no strangers to the Latin Songwriters chart, with Barrera holding an impressive 23-week reign at the top.

Moreover, this new victory places La Arrolladora alongside Banda El Recodo de Cruz Lizárraga as the group with the fourth-most No. 1s since the chart’s inception in 1994. Both bands now boast an impressive 18 No. 1 hits.
