"Adán y Eva" is a song by Argentine rapper Paulo Londra. Released by Warner Latina and Big Ligas on 5 November 2018, it was written by Londra, Cristian Salazar and Ovy on the Drums, who also produced the song. The song title makes reference to the Abrahamic characters, Adam and Eve. With "Adán y Eva", Londra became the first and only artist to top the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 chart on two occasions, the first time with "Cuando Te Besé" in October, 2018.[1] The song also reached number one in Costa Rica, Ecuador, Peru, Spain and Uruguay.

Background

In a podcast interview with Argentine journalist Juan Pablo Varsky, Londra revealed that he had originally planned to release another song after "Cuando Te Besé", his collaboration with Becky G, however, after showing "Adán y Eva" to his grandmother, who liked it very much, he decided to contact his producer to tell her that they should move up the release of the single.[2] Finally, the song was released on November 5, 2018.[3]

Commercial performance

"Adán y Eva" became a commercial success. In Argentina, the song debuted at number thirteen on the Billboard Argentina Hot 100 on the week dated November 17, 2018.[4] On week dated November 30, 2018, the song moved to number one, becoming Londra's second single to peak on the top.[5] The song reached number 1 on the Spain music charts during its third week.[6] The single also reached the top of the charts in countries such as Costa Rica, Ecuador, Perú and Uruguay.[7] On Spotify, "Adán y Eva" reached the number 10 spot in the global top enshrining Londra as the most listened Argentine artist of 2018.[8]

In May 2021, the French company S-Money published a financial report, where it revealed that "Adán y Eva" was the tenth highest grossing song worldwide generating a figure of more than three million dollars because of its plays on the Spotify platform.[9]
