No hay cuestión que Wisin y Yandel son los líderes!  The Grammy-award winning duo's nuevo album 'La Evolución' is #1 on Billboard's Top Latin Albums chart in its first week out!

'La Evolución,' is the newly-released deluxe edition (2 CDs + DVD) of their multiplatinum album 'La Revolución.' El nuevo album features 8 new songs, including remixes and previously un-released tracks, plus four music videos (including dos versiones de "Gracias a Ti" and the MTV Video Music Award-nominated video, "Abusadora").

El album, which includes hit single "All Up To You" (with Aventura and Akon) and "Mujeres in the Club" (with 50 Cent), also features appearances by Enrique Iglesias, T-Pain, Ivy Queen, Ednita Nazario, Franco "El Gorila", Gadiel and Yomo.  Wisin & Yandel are also getting ready for un fin de semana espectacular as they prepare to perform at el Coliseo de Puerto Rico on December 4, 5 and 6.  The show promises to be concierto del año en Puerto Rico, with world-renowned surprise guests y todos sus éxitos de los últimos 11 años!

Big week for music releases?  That's the understatement del siglo!

Esta semana will see the release of some of the most anticipated albums del año, including:

Wisin y Yandel - 'La Evolucion'

Los lideres are back with a double CD of remixes and new material from their 'La Revolucion' record.  We've already got a taste of what's on here, with "Imagínate" f/T-Pain, and you know the rest of it is going to be just as hot!

Shakira - 'She Wolf'

FINALLY!  El muy esperado disco de Shakira has finally hit the stores!  La cantante Colombiana "Did It Again" con este album, delivering one sexy hit (um... the title track, "Loba"?!) after another.

Lady Gaga - 'The Fame Monster'

Listen to the track "Alejandro" and you'll see that even the Gaga-monster has been bitten by the Latin bug!   No te la vas a poder sacar de la cabeza, we promise you!!  That is, as soon as you can get "Bad Romance" out of it!

Rihanna - 'Rated R'

With "Russian Roulette" blowing up the scene, we expect a repeat success for our favorite 'Good Girl Gone Bad.'

Also out this weekare Beyoncé's 'I AM… Deluxe Edition,' a re-release of her platinum-release 'I Am...Sasha Fierce,' and Britney Spears' 'The Singles: Deluxe Box Edition.'

Wisin y Yandel won the top dos lenguas at last week's Los Premios MTV 2009, for "Artista del Año" y "Video del Año."  As we reported last week, el Dúo Dinámico dedicated their "Artist of the Year" Premio to 50 Cent, who they credit with making este año tan especial para ellos.  MTV News and MTV Tr3s caught up with the trio on the red carpet before the show, where we got 50's two cents on working con los reggaetoneros.  Watch what the rapper had to say below.

Como pueden ver, 50 Cent regards working in the Latin market as an opportunity.  In fact, el rapero is so confident in his work with Wisin y Yandel, that he believes they will win the Latin Grammy they are nominated for este año.

"This is exciting — when they win, I'm gonna finally win my trophy!"

Wisin también está de acuerdo.

"That nomination confirms what I've said all along, which is that these collaborations are necessary.  50 Cent was never nominated for a Latin Grammy. Then he works with Wisin y Yandel, and he scores a nomination. And there's a good chance that he'll win, because that song is an international hit."

T-Pain, who is also collaborating with Wisin y Yandel on "Imaginate" for their upcoming remix album, 'La Evolución,' también piensa que este es el mejor momento para colaboraciones entre artistas Latinos y anglos.

"[Our collaboration is] going to put them in my world and help put me in their world."

Este verdaderamente es el momento para 'La Evolución' de la musica latina.  With so many collaborations between Latin and English-speaking artists, you know there's a new wave of Latin pride that's sure to follow!  Que viva el orgullo Latino!!  [MTV News]

Haven't been able to catch Los Premios or just reeeeally want to watch it again (no te preocupes, we're sure you're not alone!)?  Tune-in to MTV Tr3s esta noche a las 7pm EST to see Los Premios MTV 2009 otra vez!
