Ojalá Que Llueva Café is the fourth studio album by Dominican singer-songwriter Juan Luis Guerra released in 1989 by Karen Records. It is considered one of his most emblematic and important albums. The album set the musical path for his later albums, re-formulating Dominican merengue and bachata music through the contemporary elements of pop, rock, salsa, or jazz. Incorporating socially conscious lyrics with danceable merengues and romantic-poetic bachatas, the album is considered one of the most important albums of his discography. The album received universal acclaim and is considered one of his best albums. Critics praised the artistic growth and innovation it demonstrated. Considered by fans and critics "the album that made him a star", the album was supported by the hits including the rock/blues-influenced "Woman del Callao", "Visa para un Sueño," and the gospel-influenced "La Gallera" contained socially conscious lyrics. The title track, "Ojalá Que Llueva Café", a social criticism endured by rural Dominicans, is considered one of his most emblematic and recognized songs. Its music video is considered one of the best music videos in Dominican history.
