Hu Hu Hu is the third album by Mexican singer-songwriter Natalia Lafourcade, released on 19 May 2009 by Sony Music. After releasing her album Casa as Natalia and la Forquetina, she took a hiatus from performing.[1] She returned to music with the release of the instrumental EP, Las 4 Estaciones del Amor in 2008. Lafourcade decided to name the album "Hu Hu Hu" because she perceived the phrase to be "an expression of joy".[citation needed]
The album was produced by Emmanuel del Real, Marco Moreno, and Ernesto García. The album was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Album at the 2009 Latin Grammy Awards (won by Laura Pausini) and Best Latin Pop album at the 2010 Grammy Awards (won by La Quinta Estación). Club Fonograma also named the album the 2nd best of 2009,[2] and the 7th best of the decade.[3]
