The historic album "Amor Prohibido" marked a significant moment in Selena Quintanilla's career. Released on March 13, 1994, by EMI Latin, this album came at a time when she had already established a solid fan base through her previous work. The aim with "Amor Prohibido" was to expand her appeal even further.
Facing the challenge of matching the success of her hit song "Como la Flor," A.B. Quintanilla sought the help of Ricky Vela and Pete Astudillo in composing the songs for his sister's fourth studio album. The result was a 10 song historical masterpiece, with hits like "Amor Prohibido," the song that inspired the title, "Bidi Bidi Bom Bom," "No Me Queda Más," "Techno Cumbia," "Si Una Vez," and more.
