It was released in late September 21, 2007 in Mexico and Panama and three months later on December 4, 2007 in United States, peaking at number-one in those three countries. In 2008, it was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award for Best Urban Music Album, which was awarded to Wisin & Yandel's Los Extraterrestres; however, the lead single from this album, "Te Quiero", won the Latin Grammy Award for Best Urban Song. Te Quiero also was nominated for a Lo Nuestro Award for Urban Album of the Year.[2] It won the Billboard Latin Music Award for Latin Rhythm Album of the Year in 2009.[3]
"Te Quiero" was on the Latin Billboard charts all of 2008. It was No. 1 for 20 weeks. Flex performed this song on shows such as the Latin Grammys 2008, Premios Telehit 2008, Cristina, Premios Juventud 2008, One Nation, Vivo, Pepsi Musica, and many more. Thanks to his huge hit, Flex won many awards, received more recognition, and became popular worldwide.

Jason Birchmeier gave the album two stars. He felt that Flex's vocals were "fair at best" while terrible at "Si No Te Tengo". He also criticized the album as being "short on good songs" and that the romantic feel "becomes increasingly overbearing as the album progresses."[4]
