The "Billboard" Top Latin albums chart, published in "Billboard" magazine, is a record chart that features Latin music sales information. These data are compiled by Nielsen SoundScan from a sample that includes music stores, music departments at electronics and department stores, Internet sales (both physical and digital) and verifiable sales from concert venues in the United States.
There were twenty-two number-one albums in 2004, including two releases by the Mexican group Los Temerarios: "Tributo al Amor" and "Veintisiete"; the latter album received a nomination for a Grammy Award for Best Mexican/Mexican-American Album. However, the award went to "Intimamente" by Intocable, which also peaked at number one on the chart in March. "Mi Sangre", by Colombian performer Juanes, was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album, won three Latin Grammy Awards, and also reached the top spot of this chart for five consecutive weeks from October 16 to November 13, 2004.
Singer-songwriter Marco Antonio Solís also peaked twice at the top of the chart with his greatest hits album "La Historia Continúa..." and his Latin Grammy Award nominated album "Razón de Sobra". Daddy Yankee, Jennifer Peña, Grupo Climax and Adán Sánchez peaked at number one for the first time in 2004. Luis Miguel's "México En La Piel" became his sixth number-one set on the chart and was also the winner of a Latin Grammy Award for Best Ranchero Album and the Grammy Award for Best Mexican/Mexican-American Album in 2005.
Two albums by Marc Anthony reached the top spot of the chart: "Amar Sin Mentiras" and "Valió La Pena". With these recordings, Marc Anthony won the Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album and was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award for Best Male Pop Vocal Album for "Amar Sin Mentiras".
