AllMusic[1]

Natalia Lafourcade is the debut studio album by Mexican singer-songwriter Natalia Lafourcade. It was released on 8 July 2002, via Sony Music Entertainment Mexico, with most of the songs written by Lafourcade herself and produced by Áureo Baqueiro and Loris Ceroni. The album is described as a blend of various musical styles, primarily Latin rock, Latin pop, and bossa nova.[2][1] Its tracks "Busca un problema" and "En el 2000" achieved commercial success in Mexico, with the latter being considered one of the most influential Spanish-language songs of the 2000s over the years. It was also featured in the soundtrack of the movie Amar te duele (2002). "Mírate, mírame" was also used in the soundtrack of the telenovela Clase 406 (2002).

The album reached the top of the Mexican Albums chart and received platinum certification from the Asociación Mexicana de Productores de Fonogramas y Videogramas (AMPROFON) for shipments of over 150,000 copies in Mexico. The album received two nominations at the 4th Annual Latin Grammy Awards, in the categories of Best New Artist and Best Rock Solo Vocal Album. It also received a nomination for Best Latin Pop Album at the 46th Annual Grammy Awards.
