The Billboard Brasil Hot 100 is a record chart in Brazil for songs, published weekly by Billboard Brasil magazine. First launched in October 2009, the chart was initially published monthly and measured the airplay of songs on radio stations in Brazil across all music genres, compiled by Crowley Broadcast Analysis, and was named Brasil Hot 100 Airplay. The first number-one song on the chart was "Halo" by Beyoncé. Starting from 2014, it was published weekly. The magazine published the last issue of the Brasil Hot 100 Airplay on January 28, 2019, however, Crowley continued publishing the ranking (renamed Top 100 Brasil) on his own website, which began its activities in 2018.[1] Subsequently, the magazine ceased operations for undisclosed reasons.

When Billboard Brasil returned in August 2023, the Brasil Hot 100 chart was relaunched. The new chart is based on online streaming compiled by Luminate. The current number-one as of the chart dated October 28, 2024, is "Última Saudade" by Henrique & Juliano.[2]
