Following the success of her debut album Donna, Cruz returned to recording a studio album in 1990. According to Vic del Rosario, Jr., head of VIVA Entertainment Group, the success of the single "Kapag Tumibok ang Puso" put so much pressure on Cruz that they decided to take time in recording her next album. Among the recorded tracks Cruz performed during the creation of the album, "Kurot Sa Puso" (which as written by composer Vehnee Saturno) was chosen as the lead single, becoming Cruz' first ballad lead single. The song did not perform as well as Cruz' previous hits like "Rain" or "Kapag Tumibok ang Puso" but the album was certified gold nonetheless. No further singles were released soon after as Cruz began her involvement in more television acting projects like as Alabang Girls and Ober Da Bakod.
