Cómplices is the 18th studio album by Mexican singer Luis Miguel. The album was released by WEA Latina on May 6, 2008. It is one of the most highly anticipated projects by the artist. The first rumors about this disc was that it was going to be a duet album, but it was not until March of that same year that the first details of the album were released.
