Los Chulos Son Pa' Cuidarlos (English: The Handsome Are To Be Cared For) is the first album recorded by Spanish singer Alejandro Sanz, known then as Alejandro Magno, under the label Hispavox.[1] The record, which fused flamenco and techno, was met with critical and commercial indifference, and today Sanz views the record to be "insignificant".[2] However, the album is now considered to be a collector's item.[1] In an attempt to promote Los Chulos Son Pa' Cuidarlos, he performed at strip clubs, playing short sets between acts.[2] This proved to be unsuccessful and Sanz took a break from music, choosing to study business administration.[2]
