The song features the Spanish singer Vanessa Martin who originally wrote the song for herself. José approached the singer wanting to collaborate on a song, Martin agreed and told her she could pick from a handful of songs the singer had written. José chose "Hábito de Ti" as she felt a connection with the song.[3] "Un Nuevo Amor", which had previously been released as a single from her third album Amante de lo Bueno, was re-released as the album's second digital single on April 15, 2019. "Derroche" was released as the album's third single on April 26, 2019. "Lo Que Tenías Conmigo" was released on May 5, 2019, as the second radio single and fourth overall.[4]
