The award was first presented in 2000, at the inaugural Latin Grammy Awards, as Best Pop Vocal Album, with Luis Miguel receiving the honor for Amarte es un placer. The category was discontinued after the 2001 ceremony and replaced by gender-specific awards: Best Female Pop Vocal Album and Best Male Pop Vocal Album, which remained in use until 2011. In 2012, those categories were retired and the award was reinstated as Best Contemporary Pop Vocal Album, a title it retained through the 2019 ceremony. In 2020, the category was renamed Best Pop Vocal Album again. For the 2025 ceremony, the Latin Recording Academy announced that the award would be renamed Best Contemporary Pop Album again.[3]
