Tejano Music Award for Tejano Album of the Year ( formerly the Tejano Music Award for Best Tejano/Norteño Album ) is an honor presented annually by the Texas Talent Musicians Association ( TTMA ) . The award was first presented at the 23rd Tejano Music Awards ( TMA ) and was not given out at the 24th and 29th awards ceremony . Previously , musicians who predominantly record Tejano recordings were nominated for either the Tejano Music Award for Best Conjunto Album , Orchestra Album of the Year , Album of the Year – Traditional , or Album of the Year – Progressive , depending on their style of music : conjunto , cumbia , pop ballads , or polka music . Since the genre 's popularity faded after the mid-1990s , the TMAs either merged or retired the over-categorization of their album-of-the-year categories through the 2000s decade . The record and current holder of the award is Elida Reyna , who won four non-consecutive times . The Tejano Music Award for Tejano Urban Album of the Year was a subcategory of the award and included nominations from musicians who recorded urbanized Tejano recordings ; this was awarded to musicians at the 25th and 26th awards ceremony . No artist won twice , though DJ Kane remains the only musician to have been nominated twice for the award
