The 10th Annual Latin Grammy Awards were red hot in Las Vegas last night! Calle 13 dominated the winner's circle, taking home FIVE Latin Grammys for Album of the Year and Best Urban Music Album for 'Los de Atrás Vienen Conmigo,' Best Short Form Video for "La Perla," and Record of the Year and Best Alternative Song for "No Hay Nadie Como Tú."

Is it any surprise though? MTV Tr3s definitely predicted este duo was destined for greatness! Felicidades a Calle 13! We're sure Puerto Rico is proud of their hometown heroes!

Among the other winners were Luis Fonsi, who won Canción del Año for "Aquí Estoy Yo," and Reik who won Mejor Álbum Vocal Pop Dúo o Grupo for their album, 'Un Dia Más.'

Boricua music trailblazers Calle 13 have a new album coming out next week...

And the pressure is on to live up to the success of album Residente o Visitante. Even after all the Latin Grammys scored in their short career, the same question keeps appearing about Calle 13: ¿Qué tipo de música es éste?

On the heels of their Tr3spass Tour, MTV Tr3s caught up with the duo to ask them just that. Here is what Visitante had to say to all of the gringos out there in his broken English (qué lindo):

We have music from Jamaica, from Argentina from Dubai.... it's like world music you know.

Stop trying to box Calle into just one genre people! They are not reggaeton and they are bigger than hip hop. Check out what else the music vigilantes had to say about their upcoming album in the video below. We're looking forward to them pushing the envelope even further when Los De Atrás Vienen Conmigo drops on October 21st.

We were behind-the-scenes with Calle 13 as they filmed the video for new single "No Hay Nadie Como Tu."

The song, from upcoming album Los De Atrás Vienen Conmigo shows Calle teaming up with Grammy-Award winning Mexican roqueros Café Tacuba.

The sepia-saturated video is part circus fun, part creeptastic horror show. Adding to its electic vibe is the wealth of bizarro photo footage, from children see-sawing and half-naked gypsies dancing, to someone on the toilet. Pero, it all makes sense when synced together. We do expect something unique from Calle 13, verdad?

Get your FIRST LOOK of stills from the video after the jump. No olvides:

Catch Café Tacuba when they take the stage LIVE at Los Premios on October 16th at 9pm on MTV Tr3s.

No olvides, Calle 13 is Artist of the Week on MTV from October 2nd - October 13th. We've got enough news on these boricua bros to fill up un blog entero.
