Singer Enrique Iglesias broke the record for the most number one songs on Billboard's Latin Airplay chart from a single album in 1995-96. His eponymous album contained the hits "Si Tu Te Vas," "Experiencia Religiosa," "Por Amarte," "No Llores Po Mi" and "Trapecista" according to Billboard's website.

Santos, the 31-year-old Bronx, N.Y., native, began his streak on the Billboard chart with "You" in May 2011. The song, from his solo album, "Formula Vol. 1," began a tally of 70 weeks at No. 1, tying Iglesias' record.

Prior to becoming a solo artist, Santos was a singer in the Bachata band "Aventura," which disbanded in 2011. A follow-up to the record tying album, entitled Formula Vol. 2 is expected to be released later this year.
