It was supported by the release of four singles: "Gangsta Zone", "Machucando", "El Truco" and the lead single "Rompe", that peaked at the top of US Hot Latin Songs for 13 consecutive weeks and reached number 24 on US Hot 100. Barrio Fino en Directo received mixed to positive reviews. It won several awards including the Lo Nuestro Award for Urban Album of the Year and Reggaeton Album of the Year at the 2006 Latin Billboard Music Awards.[4] Also, it was nominated for Best Urban Music Album at the 7th Annual Latin Grammy Awards.

Barrio Fino en Directo was a commercial success. It debuted at number one on the Billboard Top Latin Albums and remained the top-selling album on the chart for 14 consecutive weeks. It was the Top Selling Latin Album of 2006 in the United States, following Barrio Fino in 2005 and was certified Gold by RIAA.[5] Eventually, it was the 13th best selling Latin Album of the past 25 years in the United States. It reached the top 10 of Mexican and Peruvian album charts and charted in Japan. Also, it was certified platinum in Mexico and gold in Japan and Colombia.
