The album's main single, "[[Voy Pa'lla]]" became a huge success as it was the song that started Santos's legendary career as an artist. It is one of the most successful songs of the [[Bachata (music)|bachata]] genre. He became the first rural bachatero to reach a mainstream audience with this single. Even though it is one of his greatest hits, it may not be his song. In 1991, [[People of the Dominican Republic|Dominican]] [[Bachata (music)|bachata]] artist [[Frank Reyes]] also released the same song for his debut album ''Tú Serás Mi Reina''. An article by the Diario Oriental (Oriental Journal) mentions that it was possibly Reyes who had recorded the song first and then Santos made a cover of that same song. Yet, it is unclear whose version is the original as Reyes's version is not as known as Santos's version.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.diariooriental.com/2021/07/quien-es-el-dueno-de-la-bachata-voy-pa.html|title=¿Quién es el dueño de la bachata "voy pallá", Anthony Santos o Frank Reyes?
