Following the success of "Music of My Heart", "No Me Dejes De Querer" was a hit for Estefan and she won her first Latin Grammy Award in the category of Best Music Video at the first ceremony celebrated for these awards in September 2000.[3] "No Me Dejes de Querer" became her first Spanish language-song to enter the Billboard Hot 100, and is also her highest-charting Spanish-language song on that chart.[4]
For her album Alma Caribeña, Estefan, her husband Emilio Estefan Jr., and singer Robert Blades incorporated various Latin music styles from the islands of the Caribbean.[5] The song "No Me Dejes De Querer" brought together tropical music and Latin music to form "tropical Latin". The rhythm of the song switches between Afro-Cuban clave and non-clave Latin beats. The song carries a feeling of salsa and mambo dancing. The instruments include acoustic guitars, a horn section, and Latin percussion.[4]
