Real is the fourth

producer Swizz Beatz, Puerto Rican producers Ecko, Noriega, Monserrate and DJ Nelson. The executive producers were Goguito "Willy" Guadalupe, Gran Omar
and Ivy Queen.

Real is Queen's only record with a Parental Advisory label. The album departs from her uniquely personal lyrical content and musical style which was, until this album, mainly all about detailing hood life in Puerto Rico, heartbreak, and love. It alternates musically between reggaetón and hip hop, experimenting with electronica, funk, dancehall, pop, R&B, and acoustic ballads. The wide range of styles and musical exploration earned Real mainly positive reviews from critics. Many praised Queen's raspy vocals and production quality, whilst others criticized the lack of instrumentation.

Spawning four singles ("

Billboard Tropical Songs chart, earning Ivy Queen three Billboard Latin Music Award
nominations (including one for Tropical Airplay Track of the Year, Female). Several other tracks, including "Tócame" and "Baila Así", received airplay on both Anglophone and Hispanophone radio stations in the United States.

Real is regarded as a factor in 2004's reggaetón exposure to mainstream English-speaking markets, along with Ivy Queen's previous album (2003's Diva), as well as albums by Daddy Yankee and Tego Calderón. It became one of the best-selling albums of 2005, along with her fifth studio album, Flashback, with sales of both reportedly going "through the roof".[1] Ivy Queen then embarked on concert tours of Latin America and the United States; she also promoted the album with a network television-news segment, detailing her career (and struggle for respect) in reggaetón, as well as by performing "Chika Ideal" on Don Francisco Presenta. The album was re-released on September 25, 2007 by Machete Music, but failed to impact the charts.

Background

After the failure of Ivy Queen's first two studio albums,

Voltio, Vico C, Zion, Lennox, Nicky Jam, Johnny Prez, Gallego, and Wiso G. The song brought all twelve artist together as one to show that "unity is needed for the genre reggaetón to evolve and survive".[12]

That year, Queen released a platinum edition of the album which included new songs, such as "

London because of Diva's success. Despite her concerns about her English pronunciation, she continued with the project.[14] Queen recorded songs with some of hip hop's most popular MCs, including American rapper Fat Joe (who appeared on her debut English album).[14][15][16] His song later became "Quítate Two", and was included on Real; American hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz produced "Soldados", showcasing her crossover appeal.[17]

After the success of Diva: Platinum Edition, Ivy Queen began recording her fourth studio album in March 2004; it wrapped up in September at Marroneo Studios in Bayamón, Puerto Rico. The album was mastered and arranged by Esteban Piñero; Dennis Nieves did the mixing and served as engineer.

Production was divided among several hip-hop and reggaetón producers.

Rafi Mercenario produced seven of the album's nineteen tracks.[20]
Queen and Omar were executive producers.

Collaborations include "Matando", "Rociarlos" (also featuring

mun2 The Roof, the album was expected to feature a duet with Puerto Rican singer Don Omar.[23] Spin saw Queen's collaboration with Fat Joe as a trend in reggaetón to have American rappers "team up with its stars".[24]

According to Rolling Stone, the album contains "raspy braggadocio and sexy rhymes" which complement Queen's raspy vocals.[25] It alternates between reggaetón and hip hop as Queen experiments with Caribbean music,[26] R&B, pop, electronica, funk, dancehall and acoustic ballads: "I really think this album is for people to really just sit down and listen to it". She explained that "there are times that the songs will make you want to dance", but their lyrics are more meaningful. Although Queen said the album has its share of "battles against men", she wants it to demonstrate that she is a well–rounded artist.[20] Describing the songs, she said "[they] are always going to be real because they are feelings that people have...The hits that I have now, the girls love them because they are real. If I am feeling hurt and need to curse to express that, then I will. I am going to be real all the way because that's what made Ivy Queen".[4]

The introduction to the album features Queen lyrically blessing and thanking her audience for the support.

Afro-Latin music.[29] It features a techno-influenced beat.[30] "Dile" ("Tell Her") features lilting rhythms from Colombia (including cumbia),[31] combining Latin vallenato with reggaetón.[32] Queen noted that she sang the song without rapping to prove she is a complete musician and not just a rapper.[32] "Mi Barrio" ("My Hood") criticizes "the problems present in Añasco, Puerto Rico".[32] Queen compared the song to "Corazones" by Daddy Yankee from his album, Barrio Fino.[32] "Dee Jay" is a reggaetón number which "recognizes the DJs" of reggaetón. In it, Queen mentions DJ Nelson, Noriega, DJ Adam, DJ Negro, DJ Baby, Rafi Mercenario, Luny Tunes, Monserrate & DJ Urba and others.[27] "Quítate Two" ("Remove Yourself"), with Fat Joe, combines hip-hop and funk music. The acoustic guitar ballad "Ángel Caído" ("Fallen Angel") and its acoustic version are the fourteenth and nineteenth tracks on the album, respectively. "Tócame" "("Touch Me"), a dancehall track, features La India.[20] In a minor key, "Rebulera", another minor-key song, has Queen asserting that she is "queen" in the genre of reggaetón. The track features synthesizers and strings, and is influenced by reggae and Afro-Latin music.[33] "Baila Así" ("Dance Like That"), produced by Gran Omar, has a Punjabi–influenced hip-hop beat.[31]

Real was released on November 16, 2004,

La Factoria, in a number of South American countries (including Ecuador); she sang "Papi Te Quiero" and "Tu No Puedes", promoting Diva and Real.[44]

The inside front cover of the album included graffiti, earning "street cred" in the U.S.-centered hip-hop world.

This was her first tour in South America,

National Puerto Rican Day Parade" in June 2004).[citation needed] At the end of June 2004 Queen appeared on a network-television-news segment, detailing her career and struggle for respect in reggaetón,[citation needed] during recording sessions for the album.[45] In February 2005 Queen appeared at the Festival of Puerto Rican Stars—an historic achievement for reggaetón, since no other performer from the genre was invited.[46] In June 2005 Queen appeared on the Invasion Del Reggaetón Tour with Daddy Yankee, which grossed $817,220 for the week of June 18.[47] She also attended (and performed at) the Billboard Bash the night before the 2005 Billboard Latin Music Awards.[48]

Unlike Queen's previous albums, the artwork for Real features provocative photography; her middle and thighs are emphasized to create a sexy image.[20][49] Queen said her breasts were enlarged from a B to a C cup, adding that the packaging described the style of music on the album.[20] The album cover also features Queen's signature long nails, which she sports in a variety of colors.[50] Incorporating graffiti, the album has "street cred" in the U.S.-centered hip-hop world. The change in image for Queen is attributed to Universal Latino's feeling that Real had crossover potential for U.S. mainstream audiences. The album's title suggests this; it means "real" in English and Spanish and "royal" in Spanish, hinting at Queen's status as the Queen of Reggaetón.[49] It is also Queen's response to Puerto Rican criticism for looking like a tomboy, wearing baggy pants and large shirts[49] (which she addresses in her autobiography, Detrás Del Glamour [Behind the Glamour]).[51][52] She accepted responsibility for her change in image, attributing it to a "new growth in person"[49] and admitting that the makeover stemmed from a "crisis" and "female vanity".[53] To change her figure, Queen used a Colombian plastic surgeon.[53][54]

Commercial performance

The album was moderately commercially successful. On the

Billboard Tropical Songs chart.[67][68] After the reggaetón "explosion" on the west coast of the United States, Real helped Ivy Queen enter "Bay Area mainstream hip hop dials" with "Dile", "Tócame" and "Baila Así" "staples" on Hispanic radio stations.[69]

"Dile" received a

Latin Grammy Award for their production work on Real.[82][83] At Telemundo's El Premio De La Gente Latin Music Awards of 2005, the album was nominated for Urban or Duranguense Album of the Year — Male or Female, where Queen was also nominated for Urban or Duranguense Artist of the Year — Male or Female.[84]
