"Ese Hombre" (English: "That Man") is a song written by Ana Magdalena and Manuel Alejandro and performed by Spanish recording artist Rocío Jurado for her studio album Señora (1979). It was released by RCA Records as a B-side to "Señora" in 1980. In 1994, American salsa singer La India recorded the track for her first solo album, Dicen Que Soy (1994), which was produced by Sergio George. Lyrically, the song is about a womanizer who lures women into a wrongful relationship filled with lies and deceit.

"Ese Hombre" is the salsa song responsible for La India's honorific title as the "Princess of Salsa", according to The New York Times. The recording received positive reviews and acclaim from media respondents. "Ese Hombre" peaked at number one on the US Billboard Tropical Songs chart and peaked within the top 20 on the US Billboard Hot Latin Tracks and Latin Pop Songs charts. The track became La India's second number-one single on the Tropical Songs chart behind, "Nunca Voy a Olvidarte".
