"Te Aviso, Te Anuncio (Tango)" was nominated for the 2003 Latin Grammy Award for Best Rock Song.
Though she was already a star in the Latin pop world, Shakira broke through to the international mainstream in 1998 with DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES, followed up by a live UNPLUGGED album. Thus, her next studio effort, 2001's LAUNDRY SERVICE, played a pivotal role in the budding pop diva's career. Not one to disappoint, Shakira made LAUNDRY SERVICE a career milestone. As such, the album earned a 2002 reissue where it was accompanied by a bonus CD with a video and a live track, and also featured a remix of the smash "Whenever, Wherever" as well as a couple of alternate versions of other tracks from the album. In itself, LAUNDRY SERVICE as Shakira's countless fans have come to know and love it, is a brash, personality-filled mixture of Latin pop with distinctly Alanis-like angry-young-woman rock, along with a smattering of R&B and hip-hop production moves thrown in. It all adds up to perhaps the definitive-to-date release from this fetching young star.


Editorial reviews
3 stars out of 5 - ...There's an alluring scent of unfettered eccentric about her: her lyrics are suprisingly earthy...An exuberant mess...
