Billboard and Fuse Media to Launch Billboard Español TV

Fuse Media and Billboard are teaming up to launch Billboard Español TV, a streaming channel that will highlight music and culture in Spanish for Latino audiences across the U.S. and beyond.

Launching in the second quarter, Billboard Español TV will feature Spanish-language programming,
spotlighting emerging Latin American talent alongside globally recognized stars through artist stories, music-culture programming, and other exclusive content.

The FAST channel takes its name from Billboard’s in-language Spanish website, which launched four years ago and is the most visited music website in Spanish worldwide, according to Billboard.  

Billboard Español TV programming will feature chart highlights, artist profiles, and in-depth analyses of English and Spanish-language hits, along with music documentaries, artist profiles, live red carpet coverage, and original series that explore genre trends and culture.

“Billboard Español TV is more than a channel, it’s a reflection of how Latin music and Latino culture are woven into the fabric of American mainstream culture,” said Patrick Courtney, chief business officer for Fuse Media. “From pop, to regional Mexican, to urbano and legendary acts, this channel connects audiences to the stories behind the songs they care about, while giving advertisers access to passionate, culturally engaged fans at scale.”

The Billboard Español TV launch is indicative of the rise of Latin music as a force in music sales and popular culture overall.

“Giving Spanish-speaking music fans access to the artists they love in environments that feel native and meaningful is at the heart of what Billboard Español TV represents,” said Dana Droppo, Billboard’s chief brand officer. Partnering with Fuse Media enables us to bring Billboard’s authority in the music world, our trusted insights and storytelling into a FAST platform built for discovery, engagement and cultural resonance.”
