Amor Prohibido

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Amor Prohibido (English: Forbidden Love) is the fifth studio album by American Tejano pop singer Selena. The album was released on March 13, 1994 by EMI Latin. It was re-released on September 24, 2002, as part of the Selena: 20 Years of Music collection, and included music videos and spoken liner notes by her family, friends and her former band. Amor prohibido incorporates mostly cumbia and dance-pop songs sung in Spanish, which later helped shaped the "Tejano Music Movement" across the United States. Production of the album was delayed by the success of Selena's clothing line and boutiques, and the extensive tour for her previous album, Live!. Selena's brother and producer of her music, A.B. Quintanilla III, was the main songwriter for Amor prohibido, though lead keyboardist Ricky Vela and backup singer Pete Astudillo helped with writing a song or collaborating with Quintanilla III.
