Babilla is the thirteenth studio album by Puerto Rican rapper Vico C, released on October 6, 2009 through Caribbean Records under exclusive license to EMI Televisa. The 69% of the album was recorded at Luny Tunes' Más Flow Studios in Carolina, Puerto Rico, while the remaining 31% was recorded at Pichaera Studios, Golden Boy Studios (both in San Juan, Puerto Rico) and Rotary Music Studios (Bayamón, Puerto Rico). Vico C produced almost the entire album, while Hyde, Luis Almonte and Joel Morales worked as recording engineers. Half the album was mixed at KDS Studios, while American producer Mike Fuller mastered it at Fullersound Inc., both studios located in Florida. All tracks feature session musicians for guitars, drums, trumpet, trombone, saxophone and choirs, while Vico C played the electronic keyboard on eight of the thirteen songs that includes the album.
It features urban artists including Arcángel, Yaga & Mackie and Wiso G, and also other artists from other genres like Gustavo Laureano, Ángel López and Andy Montañez. The album was nominated for a Latin Grammy Award for Best Urban Music Album on 2010, losing to Chino & Nacho's Mi Niña Bonita. Its lead single, "Sentimiento", was also nominated for a Latin Grammy Award for Best Urban Song, but lost to La Mala Rodríguez' "No Pidas Perdón".
