John Bush from Allmusic said that "It's an LP that's meant to evoke 2006's crew-laden Los Vaqueros, which firmly established reggaeton's first family with appearances by Don Omar and Franco "El Gorilla", as well as a host of newcomers. This one is similarly studded with nearly a dozen stars and up-and-coming talents—Unlike many of their contemporaries, who clearly can't contain a parade of collaborators in a seamless whole, Wisin & Yandel easily shuttle between pop, urban, and reggaeton with few speed bumps."[2] Frances Tirado from Primerahora said that "This album is great for the fans of reggaeton, because the lyrics speak mainly of the club environment and conquer of girls, the love and heartbreak -- Music producers participating, injected the electronic dance sounds of classic reggaeton to make a solid urban music."[1]
