For example, Obsession remained in the number one position in the French top 100 singles charts for seven weeks. Proof of its success is that the album sold around 1.5 million units internationally and remained in the number one position in the European charts in countries like Italy, France, Germany, and Norway for several weeks. 1 single, in Spanish, in virtually every European territory.” The song did more than just attract a Dominican or Spanish-speaking audience. According to the article called, Aventura’s Adventure, “Obsesion, was the very first bachata act to land a No. The biggest hit of the album was a song called "Obsesión" featuring Judy Santos. We Broke the Rules was the beginning of Aventura’s success and the final step in solidifying Bachata as a relevant music genre, internationally speaking. Part of this album’s success was because Aventura’s new style sounded smoother and more modern than previous Bachata groups’. In addition, the singing style takes after R&B melodies. This new recipe used in We Broke the Rules gave birth to a new style of Bachata, “The NewYork School” or “Urban Bachata,” which is characterized by the inclusion of electric guitars instead of acoustic, and lyrics in Spanish and English instead of just Spanish. In We Broke the Rules, Aventura pioneered the incorporation of elements of urban music like Pop, Hip-hop, and R&B, giving Bachata a new flavor and extending its appeal to those who preferred urban music styles. We Broke the Rules is the second studio album by the Dominican-American Aventura, released on June 1, 2002, by Premium Latin music.
