The music found on the album is generally dance and pop music, as well as R&B. Throughout the album, Spanish influences are seen in the majority of the tracks. The album opens up with an intro, before proceeding into the next song. Following the intro is the album's second single, Run the Show. The version on the original release of the album features DeLuna singing the song by herself, however, there are multiple versions of the song which were released in various countries. The track sees DeLuna singing about commanding the dance floor. The following song is Am I Dreaming, which was initially going to be the album's second single. The song differs greatly from the dance nature of the previous track, with a more tropical beat taking over the song. The song sees DeLuna asking herself if she is dreaming, because the person she loves is so perfect. The fourth track on the album is the lead single, Whine Up. The dance-pop track has DeLuna singing about a dance move, called the whine up. Both the album version and single version feature Elephant Man rapping a verse on the track. The fifth track on the album is Feel What I Feel. The song is more similar to Am I Dreaming, in the sense that both feature a soothing tropical melody. The track is mid-tempo, being one of the slowest songs on the album. Love Me or Leave Me is the sixth song on the album. The pop-ballad features DeLuna singing over a piano based beat, speaking of how one of the best to happen in her life was her ex leaving her.

The seventh song on the album is In the End, which also serves as the album's third and final single in certain European countries. The beat of the song is more edgy, featuring a guitar in the background. The track speaks of DeLuna having nothing left except for the one that she loves. Love Confusion is the eighth track on the album. The song has a trance-like beat, as DeLuna sings about being confused by the love she feels for someone. Animal serves as the ninth track on the album. The song is similar in tune to Whine Up, however, features heavy Spanish influence. Be Remembered, the tenth song on the album, features Shaka Dee on guest vocals. The mid-tempo dance track also sees DeLuna showing off her vocal skills. The song mainly speaks of everyone having their chance to shine, and be remembered. Enjoy Saying Goodbye is the eleventh song on the album, and final English song. The song begins as a ballad, however, slowly transitions into a more upbeat dance track. The final three tracks on the album are all Spanish versions of previously heard songs. The Spanish version of Whine Up is the twelfth song on the album, and is followed by Como Un Sueño, translating to Am I Dreaming in English. The fourteenth and final track is the Spanish version of Run the Show.
