ALBUMS [ON THE 6 - RELEASE AND PRODUCTION DETAILS]
On the 6 is the debut album by American singer Jennifer Lopez, released on June 1, 1999 via Epic Records (see 1999 in music). It peaked at number eight on the U.S. Billboard 200, remaining in the top twenty for eleven weeks and on the chart for fifty-three (making one re-entry). It sold six million units worldwide and produced five singles, including the Billboard Hot 100 number-one "If You Had My Love" and the dance number-one "Waiting for Tonight". The title refers to the 6 subway line in New York City, which Lopez used to commute to work in Manhattan from her home in the Bronx during the early years of her career. The original title for On the 6 was Feelin' So Good. Lopez even wanted the song "Feelin' So Good" to be the first single instead of "If You Had My Love". Track listing

Lopez's debut album On the 6, a reference to the 6 subway line she used to take growing up in Castle Hill, was released on June 1, 1999, and reached the top ten of the Billboard 200. The album featured the multi-week Billboard Hot 100 number-one lead single, "If You Had My Love", as well as the top ten hit "Waiting for Tonight". It also contained the Spanish-language, Latin-flavored duet "No Me Ames" with Marc Anthony. Though "No Me Ames" never had a commercial release, it reached number one on the U.S. Hot Latin Tracks. Despite this, the music video for "No Me Ames" received moderate airplay on the music channels VH1 (United States) and The Box (United Kingdom). On the 6 also featured guest artists such as Big Pun and Fat Joe on the track "Feelin' So Good", which failed to make the top fifty of the Billboard Hot 100. "Let's Get Loud", the final single, earned Lopez a Grammy Award nomination in the "Best Dance Recording" category in 2001. "Waiting for Tonight" was nominated for the same category the previous year. "No Me Ames" received two nominations at the 2000 Latin Grammy Awards – "Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal" and "Best Music Video".

J to tha L-O!: The Remixes is a remix album by American singer Jennifer Lopez, released in 2002 (see 2000 in music). It was the first remix album to debut at the top of the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart, and became the best-selling remix album in the U.S. – which sold over 156,000 copies during its first week of release and over one million copies altogether – according to Guinness World Records. Selling over three million copies worldwide, it is easily considered to be the third best-selling remix album of all time, after Madonna's You Can Dance (1987) and Michael Jackson's Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix (1997).
This Is Me... Then is the fourth album by American singer Jennifer Lopez, released in 2002 (see 2002 in music). It peaked at number two on the U.S. Billboard 200, remaining in the top 20 for twelve weeks and on the chart for thirty-seven weeks. It spawned four singles: the old school hip-hop-influenced "Jenny from the Block" (featuring Styles P and Jadakiss), the Billboard Hot 100 number-one "All I Have" (featuring LL Cool J), and the soul-tinged "I'm Glad" and "Baby I Love U!".
Como ama una mujer (How a Woman Loves) is the first full Spanish-language album from American singer, actress, dancer, Jennifer Lopez. It will officially be released on March 27th, 2007. The album is mainly produced by Estéfano, along with Marc Anthony and Julio Reyes. The photoshoot for the album was done on September 4 and September 5 in New York City by photographers Markus Klinko and Indrani. The video for the lead single "Qué Hiciste” was filmed in Las Vegas in October, and was directed by Michael Haussman. The song "Qué Hiciste" was released to some radio stations in January. The song will be on all radio stations the day the album is released which is March 27th, 2007. 4 tracks on the album feature the strings of the London Symphony Orchestra. Argentine Latin rock singer Fito Páez worked on some tracks of the album, including the first single "Qué Hiciste". Jennifer recorded in Puerto Rico with producers Luny Tunes and Pharrell on a reggaeton track titled "Te Voy A Querer". Como ama una mujer features a collection of "big ballads" written and produced by Estéfano, who had previously produced the Grammy Award-nominated Spanish-language album Amar Sin Mentiras for Marc Anthony. A song titled Porque La Vida Es Asi leaked on the internet and it's rummored that the song is going to be on the soundtrack of Jennifer's new movie Bordertown. The song, produced by Marc Anthony and herself, shows Jennifer's improved vocal abilities without any background vocals.
J. Lo is the second album by American singer Jennifer Lopez, released in 2001 (see 2001 in music). It debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard 200, where it stayed in the top twenty for six weeks, after the single "Love Don't Cost a Thing" had reached number three on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. The second single, "Play", performed disappointingly, and led Lopez' team to bring in Ja Rule of The Inc. Records (then known as Murder Inc. Records) to create "Murder remixes" of "I'm Real" and "Ain't It Funny". These remixes, which are essentially different songs with the same title, both reached number one in the U.S. In July 2001, the album was re-released with the very popular "I'm Real" (Murder Remix) as a bonus track (due to its explicit nature, the re-release came with a Parental Advisory sticker). For the song "Dame", Lopez joined Puerto Rican singer Chayanne on the cha-cha-cha-beat track.
