Background

Following Dunbar's departure from the American salsa band Dark Latin Groove following their third studio album Gotcha! released in 1999 Sergio George proposed to him after a few months to start recording his debut album.[3][4]

Critical reception

Evan C. Gutiérrez of AllMusic said, "Together with some other New York talent, the two formed the genre-crossing tropical group DLG, and in a matter of a few short years, cranked out three fantastic albums that went a long way towards turning Dunbar into salsa's up and coming bad boy. For Dunbar, going solo was a natural next step."[5]
