La Conexión (English: Connection) is a mixtape recorded by Puerto Rican-American girl group Nina Sky. It was released on October 21, 2005 in United States and four days later worldwide through La Conexión Music and Traffic Records, one year after their debut self-titled studio album. It features appearances by musicians such as N.O.R.E., Tony Touch, B-Real, Ivy Queen, Pitbull, Lil Jon, Richie Rivera, Mackie y Yaga, Aventura and Notch. Special edition of the album was also released in October 2005. It contained one bonus track and an exclusive bonus DVD. The duo said that they gave the album title La Conexión because they feel connection to Latin music and culture, Puerto Rican food, Spanish language etc. while embracing their Puerto Rican roots. La Conexión failed to chart anywhere, but its lead single "Play That Song" (Tony Touch featuring Nina Sky and B-Real) was success. La Conexión was produced by twins themselves, Mysto & Pizzi, DJ Sonic and DJ Blass.

After they released their debut album Nina Sky, they started recording another project. Mixtape's recording was started in late 2004, and finished in mid-2005. On some of the songs, they were featuring artist, such as "Churn That Butta", "Play That Song", "You're Lying" etc. It was released as mixtape with special edition bonus DVD. Album's recording sessions just finished before the first single was released. Some songs from the album were unreleased songs from their debut studio album. The duo named the album La Conexión because they feel connection with Spanish language, Puerto Rican food and Latin music. They were also featured on Sean Paul's song "Connection" which was included on his third studio album The Trinity. There are a lot of Spanish songs on the album such as "Sueños", "La Conexión", "Toma", "Vamos Amarnos" and "Tu y Yo".
