(2002)"Mi Destino" (Eng.: My Destiny) is the fifteenth album from Mexican
pop music singer andactress Lucero . It was released in2000 .On this album is the second time in Lucero's career that she writes her own material, as she did the Spanish version of the first single "Mi Destino Eres Tú" (You're My Destiny), and eventually the song went to #1 in Mexico powered by the
telenovela of the same name, stared by the singer herself,Jorge Salinas andJaime Camil . She also did some lyrics for the track "Arde" (Burn) and did the Spanish version of "Vamos a Cantar" (Everything is Right...) which was the official song of the 2000 Mexican Teletón.Is the first time that more than two producers work on a single album of the artist. On this project the singer also includes two songs completely sung in English and according to the album's booklet: "in a New York engligh pronunciation". Rafael Pérez-Botija worked again with Lucero, this time with five tracks (written and produced by him).
Ric Wake produced "Tuya" (Yours), "Mi Destino Eres Tú", "Nadie Me Quiere Como Tú" and "Vamos a Cantar".Jean B. Smit did "Llegarás" (You'll Came), which was supossed to be the first single for the album, since the telenovela that Lucero was going to shoot had this name initially, but since the title of the soap opera was change to "Mi Destino Eres Tú" the track was not released.
"No Puedo Más" (English and Spanish versions) were produced by the team Jimmy Greco and Ray Contreras (Jimmyray Productions). Ricardo "Eddy" Martínez worked as producer on "Arde".
