Charly Black’s 33 Most Streamed Music Videos On YouTube

The music video for Gloria Trevi’s Me Lloreas featuring Dancehall artist Charly Black has surpassed 124 million streams on YouTube.  Trevi, a popular Mexican singer, actress and television host, previously hit the 100 million mark with 2013’s No Querias Lastimarme which now has 487M views.

“I just put in the hard work and try to make the right moves. I realized a long time ago that making music with a global reach is the right strategy,” Black told Donovan Watkis of WMV. “It’s always nice to have a hot record in the core market too but having songs that do well on an international level just opens so many more doors.”

Julian Jones-Griffith, manager to Charly Black who was instrumental in bringing the collaboration to fruition said, “Gloria Trevi is a huge star in Mexico, a bonafide icon that has been likened to Madonna. Her life and career has spanned massive albums, movies and she was even arrested and imprisoned there for like 5 years.”

“When the idea for a collaboration with Charly was pitched to me by Universal it was a no-brainer and turned out to be a great decision. Taking Artists into different realms and markets is essential if you want to truly become a global star. As they say don’t listen to the noise, watch the sale and Charly’s numbers don’t lie.”

The Party Animal DJ’s latest achievement places him among a growing list of Jamaican Reggae, Reggae-Pop and Dancehall artists who are finding massive success on YouTube with Reggaeton collaborations.

“The original YouTube post of Party Animal isn’t included (on the current video upload). The original upload had 88m but when we did the deal with Universal (Records) we had it transferred over to VEVO at the time where it had 212m views, so you’re looking at over 300m views for that track, not even counting the Daddy Yankee remix views”.

His 2017 track You’re Perfect went viral on TikTok. It’s starting to pick up on mainstream in the US now so there’s a lot of great things happening.”

Black was tapped to make the official theme song for CONCACAF’s Gold Cup in 2021.

The Party Animal singer will join Colombian Latin Pop Music urban duo, Cali Y El Dandee to perform Juega — the official song of the tournament. El Dandee co-produced Luis Fonsi’s major hit Despacitowhich is the most streamed YouTube music video surpassing 7 billion views.

He is the first Jamaican artist to be chosen to make a theme song for the competition. A music video for Juega was also filmed and released.

Charly Black added, “It’s a massive look for me and for Dancehall. I have been shown crazy love by the Latin music market and fans and this hopefully will add to that. Cali Y El Dandee are mad cool so it was even better to know I would be working with them on the track.”

“The Gold Cup is something Jamaicans always get behind to support the Reggae Boyz so hopefully this swells the patriotic pride a little more to know we are represented on the Official Gold Cup song. The Latin music market is massive so being able to tap into it is a blessing,” he added.
