Anuel AA, working with "Joshi", conceived and recorded the entire album while he was in prison.[3] Due to his imprisonment, he did not give any interviews about the project.
Although the singer's lawyer, Edwin Prado, had anticipated the media that his client kept working from prison to get a production, the exclusive that the album would be released on the day of Anuel AA's release from prison was published by Billboard, as well as a full interview with the singer.[4] In the said interview with Billboard, Anuel AA told them that he knew "[Puerto Rican police] were going to send [him] to jail" and that they likely arrested him for his songs.[5]
