Corazón Profundo, Vive's thirteenth studio album was released in late April of this year by Sony Music, and gained immediate commercial success.

The single "Volvia Nacer" (Born Again) went straight to #1 on US Billboard Latin Pop Songs and US Billboard Hot Latin Songs, signifying one of the strongest comebacks in Latin Music History. "Como Le Gusta a Tu Cuerpo," which features Brazilian Sertaneja singer Michel Telo, which has more of a mainstream style.

Vives, who is a three-time Latin Grammy Award winner (Dejame Entrar, "Dejame Entrar," and El Rock de Mi Pueblo)  and a Grammy Award winner (Dejame Entrar), said in a press release, "To be nominated is already an accomplishment, and I want all the artist in Colombia to know that these nominations are also theirs. May we win."

Vives is in the running to sweep Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best Tropical Song for "Volvia Nacer;" and Album of the Year and Best Tropical Fusion Album for the Corazon Profundo.
