When the first Latin Grammys were announced on Sept. 13, 2000 at the Los Angeles Staples Center, Latin radio was playing lots of Maná, Shakira, and Luis Miguel.

What a difference 16 years make! Keep scrolling to hear what it all sounded like back then by remembering the songs that took prizes that year, and then check out photos of that first big night in Latin music.
