Desde el Principio

📖 About this album

Second studio album by Shakira, released in 1995 in Colombia and 1997 internationally. Her commercial breakthrough in Latin America, mixing rock influences with Colombian sounds. It established her as one of the leading voices of Spanish-language pop.

📝 Our review

The record that launched Shakira as a Latin star. Luis F. Ochoa production blends rock with Caribbean rhythms effectively. "Estoy aquí" and "¿Dónde estás corazón?" still carry some freshness. A teenage pop album with more character than most Latin pop of the nineties.
