The Lo Nuestro Award for Rock/Alternative Album of the Year was an honor presented annually by American network Univision. The Lo Nuestro Awards have been held annually since 1989. The accolade was established to recognize the most talented performers of Latin music.[1] The nominees and winners were originally selected by a voting poll conducted among program directors of Spanish-language radio stations in the United States and also based on chart performance on Billboard Latin music charts, with the results being tabulated and certified by the accounting firm Arthur Andersen.[1][2] At the present time, the winners are selected by the audience through an online survey.[3] The trophy is shaped in the form of a treble clef.[1] The categories awarded were for the Pop, Tropical/Salsa, Regional Mexican and Music Video fields before the 2000 awards, and from the following year onwards categories were expanded and included a Rock field for Album and Performer of the Year.[4]
The award was first presented to MTV Unplugged by Colombian singer Shakira. Mexican band Maná were the most nominated and biggest winners in the category, with five wins out of six nominations. Chilean band La Ley won the award twice. Colombian performer Juanes won in 2009 for La Vida... Es Un Ratico, which also received the Latin Grammy Award for Album of the Year and the Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album.[5][6] Mexican ensemble Zoé was the most nominated act without a win, with four unsuccessful nominations. In 2013, all the categories in the Rock Field (Artist, Album and Song of the Year) were merged into the Pop Field.[7]
