Chicas Malas

Chicas Malas (English: Bad Girls) is the fourth studio album by Spanish recording singer-songwriter Mónica Naranjo. It was released through Sony on 26 October 2001. The album features several notable collaborations, with such worldwide-known influences, the album sales were disappointing.

Background and contract issues
An English-language version of the album entitled, Bad Girls, was released in 2002, "Ain't Better Like This" a song written and produced by Gregg Alexander, is the only song recorded in English, originally she was going to record the song in Spanish for Chicas Malas, and include exclusively the English version on Bad Girls, but due to the explicit lyrics, Mónica decided to record only the English-language version of the song, and include it in both albums. Just after the release of Chicas Malas, Naranjo informed the head of Sony Music Entertainment, Tommy Mottola he was leaving the record label. As a result, all promotions concerning the Chicas Malas and Bad Girls albums were stopped. Mónica has said about the album "It was a project in which Sony more spent nationally. I don't like it, but I did it for ambition and it's an album that I don't even want to hear". The album had four singles released respectively, "Chicas Malas", "Sacrificio", "No Voy a Llorar" and "Ain't Better Like This". A Special Edition of the album was originally planned; however, it never came to fruition.
