Mexican Latin pop group RBD has released six studio albums, six live albums, five compilation albums, 13 extended plays (EPs), 21 singles, 11 promotional singles, two box sets, and three reissues. According to Billboard, they have sold over 14.9 million albums worldwide as of October 2008, making them one of the best-selling Latin music artists of all time.[1][2] Luminate revealed that, in terms of pure sales, they have tallied 2 million albums in the United States.[1] RBD made their chart debut in September 2004 with "Rebelde", which was followed by the release of their debut studio album, also titled Rebelde (2004). The record reached number one in Mexico and Spain, being later certified Diamond by the Asociación Mexicana de Productores de Fonogramas y Videogramas (AMPROFON). By the end of 2006, it had sold over 1.5 million copies according to EMI.[3] The album also spawned the top-ten hits "Solo Quédate En Silencio" and "Sálvame", which achieved significant success in several Latin American countries. During their subsequent Tour Generación RBD (2005–2007), the group released the live album Tour Generación RBD En Vivo (2005). In 2006, it received certified Platinum from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the Latin field, indicating sales of 60,000 album-equivalent units.[4]
RBD's second studio album, Nuestro Amor, was made available for consumption on September 22, 2005, sold 127,000 units within seven hours of its release and certified triple Platinum in Mexico.[5] Additionally, the album peaked at number 88 on the US Billboard 200, and topped the Top Latin and Latin Pop Albums charts. It spawned four singles—"Nuestro Amor", "Aún Hay Algo", "Tras de Mí", and "Este Corazón".[6] Fueled by the success of the lead single "Ser o Parecer", the group's third album Celestial (2006), debuted at number 15 on the Billboard 200, with first-week sales of 117,000 copies.[7] According to Luminate, the album has sold over 498,000 copies (as of October 2008) in the US, becoming RBD's best-selling album in the country.[1] It also charted inside the top ten in Mexico, Spain, and Brazil. In 2009, Billboard named Celestial as the fifth best-selling Latin pop album of the 2000s.[8] EMI's Brazilian subsidiary has reissued the group's first three albums in Brazil, featuring the songs re-recorded in Portuguese.[9] The first two reissues, Rebelde (Edição Brasil) and Nosso Amor Rebelde, appeared in the top 20 best-selling albums in Brazil between 2005 and 2006, respectively.[10][11] In December 2006, the sextet released their fourth album, Rebels, which was their first project in English. However, it did not replicate its success in the United States as Celestial, where it peaked at number 40 on the Billboard 200. Its single "Tu Amor" was a moderate success, reaching the top ten in Mexico and Colombia, and number 65 on the US Billboard Hot 100.
The group's fifth release, Empezar Desde Cero (2007), was the ninth best-selling Latin pop record in the US for 2008.[12] The album received record certifications in several countries, including Gold certifications in Argentina and Spain, and a triple-Platinum certification in RBD's native Mexico. Its lead single "Inalcanzable", peaked at number four on the Monitor Latino chart and number 44 in the Romanian Top 100. Following RBD's disbandment announcement, three greatest hits albums were released in 2008—Best of, Hits Em Português, and Greatest Hits. The sextet's final album, Para Olvidarte De Mí (2009), was not promoted and did not achieve the same success as their earlier releases. However, the title track reached number 26 on the Billboard Mexico Airplay chart. In 2020, RBD reunited for the first time and released the single "Siempre He Estado Aquí", being later certified Platinum by Pro-Música Brasil (PMB). That same year, they also released the RBD: Edición Limitada and Siempre Rebelde box sets. Following this, they put out the live album Ser O Parecer: The Global Virtual Union (En Vivo) in 2021, and the single "Cerquita de Ti" to promote the Soy Rebelde Tour (2023).[13]
