The album marks a return to his rock roots after his two previous original albums experimented with new genres. Juanes told Rolling Stone , "I realized I needed to go back to my natural way of making music. This is who I am." [3]

Background

Vida Cotidiana was written during the COVID-19 pandemic, which Juanes stated helped to connect him with the reality of his home. [4] The majority of the album reflects on Juanes' relationship with his wife and children: accustomed to spending long periods of time away from home due to his career, Juanes was living with his family 24 hours a day for the first time due to the COVID-19 lockdowns. He also used the time to take virtual lessons, studying guitar with Tomo Fujita  [ ja ] from Berklee College of Music, harmony with Guillermo Vadalá  [ es ], singing with vocal coach Eric Vetro, and poetry with Alexis Díaz Pimienta  [ es ]. [5]

Critical reception

Ernesto Lechner of Rolling Stone described the album as "unique and inspiring," calling it "Juanes' most sincere effort to date." [6]
