eight and feature a mix of pop ± rock, romance and disco with electronic

accompaniment. However, it was not well marketed. Despite much rotation on

Colombian radio stations, giving exposure to the young Shakira, the album was not

a commercial success even though the music video Magia became the number one

pop video in Colombia.� Her second album, Peligro, in the same genre, was released in 1993, but Shakira

was not satisfied with the final result, principally in regards to the production. The

album was better received than Magia, but it likewise enjoyed little commercial

produced on September 28. 1998 in Miami.The album was inspired by an incident

that occurred at the airport when a suitcase full of lyrics was stolen.

� Shakira received her first Grammy in 1999 and also a Latin Grammy for Best

Rock /Alternative Album.� Her first live album, MTV Unplugged , was recorded in New York on August 12.

1999, and is regarded as one of her best leves performances. The acoustic album

won Grammy for Best Latin Pop Album in 2001.

a crossover album in English. Whenever, Wherever ( released under the title

Suerte in Spanish ) was the first single Shakiraµs English language album,

Serviço de Lavanderia in Latin America and Spain) was released on November 13,
