Background

edit

Yandel commented on the process of the album, by saying,

"The idea of creating Quien Contra Mi 2 arose during the quarantine. When all this started, I had many songs recorded and in a conversation with Andy, my manager, I told him that I missed that contact with my colleagues in music so much. But inside everything I was full of hope and a lot of positivity and that attitude reminded me a little of the Yandel who at first took so many risks to get ahead. The pandemic has brought so much suffering, irreparable loss, and big changes in the entertainment world. In my case, thank God, this gift of being alive and healthy has prompted me to continue believing in myself, and once again bet on what I have been passionate about for so long: music."[3]
