Billboard Latin Music Award for Latin Pop Song of the Year

The Billboard Latin Music Award for Latin Pop Song of the Year (formerly Latin Pop Airplay Track of the Year and Pop Song of the Year) is an honor presented annually at the Billboard Latin Music Awards, a ceremony which honors "the most popular albums, songs, and performers in Latin music, as determined by the actual sales, radio airplay, online streaming and social data that informs Billboard's weekly charts."[1] The award is given to the best-performing singles on Billboard's Latin Pop Airplay chart, which measures the most popular pop music recordings on Spanish-language radio stations in the United States.[2] The list was established by the magazine on October 8, 1994.[3] From 2003 to 2009, the award was separated into Male, Female, Duo or Group, and New Artist categories.
