Background

Although Pepe Aguilar's discography has been dominated by ranchera and banda styles of Mexican music, he was no stranger to trying new things.[2][3] Aguilar has recorded a few pop/rock songs throughout his career. Songwriter Enrique Guzman Yanez, also credited as, "Fato", has previously worked with Aguilar experimenting outside of regional Mexican music, specifically his 2004 album No Soy de Nadie and his 2011 EP, Negociaré con la pena.[4][2] Guzman wrote or co-wrote six out of the ten songs on the album, including the two lead singles.[1]
