The album was the first recording with the four new members, following the departure of Robert, Rawy, Edward, and Jonathan, who cited physical, psychological, and emotional abuse as their reasons for leaving.[5][6] Although Edgardo Díaz, the group's manager, denied these allegations, the management decided to replace the former members with the new ones in an effort to stabilize Menudo.[7]
