  • Tito Auger wrote "Croatto" in honor of singer Tony Croatto, one of his influences. 4 years later, after Croatto's death, Auger sang the song in a concert in his memory.
  • Ricky Laureano wrote and dedicated "Encontrarte es una Historia que Hoy Deberían Publicar" to his wife, while Auger wrote and dedicated "Tu y Mi Ciudad" to his.
  • "El Asunto: Salcedo Sigue Siendo Mortal" is a reference to Spaniard Diego Salcedo's drowning at the hands of the Taíno indians of the island.
