When I'm at shows, I see almost everyone with a camera, and they're all trying to give the best pose, especially the women. It's interesting to me how we're always trying to look good. That's the inspiration for the song.

Este disco se estrenó un día antes que la película, y fue producido por El Cartel Records y Machete Music. Este álbum tuvo nominado en dos categorías de los Grammy Latinos.
