Entre a Mi Mundo was the third studio album release by Tejano singer Selena under EMI Latin, a month after her marriage to guitarist Chris Perez. When this album was released, the label was starting to explore alternatives to spread Selena's talent throughout Latin markets other than Tejano. The song "Como la Flor", written by A.B. Quintanilla III and Pete Astudillo became Selena's trademark song. The track quickly became Selena's first number one. Also from this album, "La Carcacha" became a great success, with the band traveling to Monterrey, Mexico to film their first music video for this song. Although Selena had tried her hand at English-language work before, the track "Missing My Baby" was a first in the R&B genre. Also part of the more mainstream mix in this album is "Amame", with Selena showcasing her range as a Latin pop artist. A remastered version of Entre a Mi Mundo was released in 2002 with "Buenos Amigos", a hit duet with El Salvadoran Alvaro Torres as a bonus track.
