Rebelde is the debut studio album by Mexican Latin pop vocal group RBD, released on November 30, 2004, in Mexico and on January 11, 2005, in the United States and the rest of Latin America.[2]

The album belongs to the pop and latin pop genres, with teen pop and pop rock stylings.[2] The album was produced by Carlos Lara, Max di Carlo and Armando Ávila. A Brazilian Portuguese version of the album was also recorded and released on November 1, 2005. On March 2, 2006, a Diamond Edition of the album was released.[3]

The album reached the top spot in the music charts of Mexico, selling 550,000 copies in the country and gaining a diamond and gold certification by AMPROFON. In the United States, the album topped the Billboard Latin Pop Albums chart, while reaching the runner-up slot in the main Billboard Top Latin Albums chart and selling over 400,000 copies in the country, attaining a 4× platinum certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in its Latin field.

As part of the album's promotion, four singles were released. The first three, "Rebelde", "Sólo Quédate En Silencio", and "Sálvame", became number one hits in Mexico, while "Un Poco de Tu Amor" was only serviced to Mexican radios.

The album sold over 1.5 million copies worldwide in its first two years of release, and was the tenth best selling EMI album of 2006.[4]

Background and recording

In 2004, filming began on the Mexican telenovela Rebelde; its six main young actors Anahí, Alfonso Herrera, Dulce María, Maite Perroni, Christopher Uckermann and Christian Chávez would go on to form the musical group RBD, having their first studio album released on November 30, 2004, in Mexico. The album's vocals were recorded in just two days, as stated by the members of RBD themselves. RBD's six vocalists sung all of the album's 11 songs in the studios of two of the album's producers: Armando Ávila and Carlos Lara. The album was executive produced by renowned Mexican television producer Pedro Damián. The album was later released on January 11, 2005, in the United States and the rest of Latin America.

As part of the album's promotion, starting September 2004, four singles were released. The lead single off the album, "Rebelde", was released on September 30, 2004, and reached number 1 on the Mexican charts. The second single was "Solo Quédate en Silencio", which, after being released on December 2, also became a number one hit in Mexico. The third single was the ballad "Sálvame", which was named the most-played song on Mexican radio in 2005. The song has singer Anahí performing its main vocals while the rest of the band sings the chorus. The single was released on March 15, 2005. The fourth and last single from the album was "Un Poco De Tu Amor", which was released on July 4, 2005, only to Mexican radio. The album's singles were used as part of the telenovela's soundtrack, with lead single "Rebelde" becoming the TV show's main theme.

Three music videos were filmed to promote the singles "Rebelde", "Solo Quédate En Silencio", and "Sálvame", and were all directed by Pedro Damián. Aside from the album's four official singles, 2 other songs from the album had radio promotion: "Otro Día Que Va" and "Enséñame".

Tour

RBD during their concert in Tijuana, Mexico (2005).

RBD's first national tour, Tour Generación RBD, sold out every single date. The group offered 35 concerts in Mexico, starting January 3, 2005, and ending August 28, 2005, in the Auditorio Nacional. On October 21, 2005, an expanded international leg for the tour led the group to visit Colombia for the first time. This was soon followed with first visits to Venezuela, Puerto Rico and Ecuador, experimenting the same level of success in these countries as in the band's native Mexico.

Commercial performance

The album went on to be certified diamond and gold in Mexico, shipping 550,000 copies and topping the Mexican Albums Chart for twelve non-consecutive weeks.[5] Due to the success of the Spanish language album, the band recorded a Portuguese language version of Rebelde for their growing fanbase in Brazil, titled Rebelde (Edição Brasil). RBD became the first foreign act in Brazil to have two albums in different languages (Portuguese and Spanish) in the top ten of the Brazilian Albums Chart at the same time, with both albums reaching number one. In 2006, the original Spanish-language version of the album was also released in Spain. RBD eventually topped the Spain Albums Chart with their debut album for five consecutive weeks. The album also spent more than 50 weeks in the Billboard Top Latin Albums chart in the United States, peaking at number two and spending over 2 months in the chart's top 5, selling over 400,000 copies in the country and being certified 4× platinum (Latin field) by the RIAA.[6] Worldwide, the album went on to sell more than 1,500,000 copies.[4]
