Background and release

[edit]

After releasing singles including "Jordan", "Monastery" and "Mujeriego", and two EPs in 2022, at the beginning of 2024 Castro announced through his social networks and WhatsApp channel that his debut album was going to be released that year.[3] Since then, he showed on his networks producing new music, deciding what to include and what not to.

Later, Castro sent a profile photo of the album and told his followers that they put it as their profile photo and that if most of them had it he would reveal the cover and track listing. Finally, on April 16, 2024, the singer announced the album's release date, cover art, and track listing, and the next day along with the release of his song of the same name from the album called "La Salsa".[4]
