Marc Anthony is the self-titled Latin/pop album by Marc Anthony. It is Marc Anthony's first solo album in English, and fourth overall. The album debuted in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200 and has since gone Platinum in the US. This was Anthony's first English album since his 1991 effort, "When the Night is Over", in which he recorded with Little Louie Vega. I Need To Know became Marc Anthony's first solo song to reach number one in a chart outside the Billboard Latin series.[5]
