In the past week, Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, globally known as Bad Bunny, has been everywhere in the news and lighting up social media with major moves in both music and pop culture. Starting with the biggest headline, Bad Bunny has been officially named the Super Bowl LIX halftime performer for 2026 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, a decision that's sparked lively debates and reactions online and across TV networks. The announcement was quickly followed by a viral appearance on Saturday Night Live this weekend, where Bad Bunny both hosted and addressed the controversy swirling around his halftime slot.On SNL, Bad Bunny took the stage in trademark style, using his opening monologue to directly respond to critics questioning his selection for the Super Bowl show. In English and Spanish, he reminded everyone that his performance is a victory not just for himself but for the entire Latino community in the U.S., saying, “Our footprints and our contribution to this country—no one will ever be able to take that away or erase it.” He addressed the possibility of the performance being entirely in Spanish, which sparked heated responses from a segment of the U.S. political spectrum, especially after Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem confirmed ICE officers would be present at the event, a move that many fans saw as politically charged. Social media erupted with support, memes, and the now-trending tag “Duolingo for the Gringos,” as people celebrated Bad Bunny's unapologetically Latino stance and infectious pride.While the Super Bowl news has dominated sports and entertainment commentary, Bad Bunny's musical influence remains just as strong. On January 5, he released his sixth studio album, “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” (“I Should Have Taken More Photos”). The project has been hailed by many outlets, including NME and Wikipedia, as his most personal yet, blending reggaeton and house with deep dives into traditional Puerto Rican roots—plena, salsa, bomba, and more. Lyrically, the album explores Puerto Rican political realities, cultural pride, and the nostalgia of capturing moments before they pass. The record has already gone to number one on the Billboard 200 and its tracks are dominating the Hot 100, making Bad Bunny the first Latin artist with more than 100 entries on the chart. TikTok has been buzzing as song after song from “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” finds viral life with dance challenges and heartfelt covers.In addition to his SNL appearance and musical achievements, Bad Bunny just wrapped up a historic concert residency in Puerto Rico and is preparing for his “Debí Tirar Más Fotos” World Tour, which kicks off in November. Notably, he's skipping the U.S. on this leg, explaining in interviews that concerns about immigration enforcement and ICE presence influenced his decision. According to i-D magazine, Bad Bunny expressed that safety and respect for his community are at the forefront of his decisions, drawing widespread empathy and praise from Latino and immigrant supporters on X and Instagram.Adding to his pop culture reach, Bad Bunny appeared in the much-watched trailer for Adam Sandler's “Happy Gilmore 2,” showing that his crossover appeal remains sky-high. Forbes and Billboard recently reported his Most Wanted Tour raked in over $210 million last year, cementing his status as a live performance giant.With the Super Bowl, a hit album, SNL, viral singles, chart records, and a blockbuster tour, Bad Bunny is more than just a superstar—he's a cultural force redefining global music and representation.

A provocative billboard in New York criticized Prince Andrew by mocking his alleged involvement in the Epstein scandal. The billboard, erected by a Manhattan storage company, used a tongue-in-cheek approach to highlight the sex abuse allegations and the multimillion-dollar settlement he reached with Virginia Giuffre. Its message forced the public and media to confront a topic that many prefer to evade: the intersection of royalty, privilege, and alleged trafficking.The billboard's appearance illustrates how public activism and visual protest can pierce institutional silence. It turned a whisper campaign into a street-level accusation, making it harder for powerful actors to ignore or downplay. In doing so, it reinforced the idea that accountability and justice won't always come from elite institutions—that sometimes the most effective pressure comes from the margins demanding attention.to  contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Syracuse Hancock International Airport recently rejected a billboard advertising the services of attorney Megan Thomas. Those services include specialization in workplace discrimination and sexual harassment cases. The billboard read, “When HR called it ‘harmless flirting' … we called it exhibit A.” Airport officials told Syracuse.com that they rejected the sign because it was “unprofessional, inflammatory, and unnecessary.” Now Thomas is suing, and she wonders who the airport is trying to protect — or why the idea of advertising legal services for sexual harassment cases is "inflammatory" or "unnecessary." We'll discuss this unusual case, and we'll explore whether the efforts of the MeToo movement have stalled.Our guests: Megan Thomas, Esq., owner of Megan Thomas Law, PLLC Lauren Berger, local progressive activist and interim executive director of GLOW OUT!  ---Connections is supported by listeners like you.

Today, the Spotlight shines On writer Chris O'Leary.Chris has spent over a decade and a half writing what's become the definitive study of David Bowie's songbook. His blog, Pushing Ahead of the Dame, covers every song on every album in Bowie's extensive canon. The first post from 2009 covers David's first single, 1964's “Liza Jane”, and the most recent is about Chris's latest work, a newly revised edition of Rebel Rebel, a collection of his writings on Bowie songs from 1963 - 1976. Chris has written for Pitchfork, Slate, and Billboard, and he's currently working on an online project called 64 Quartets, a series exploring musical quartets across genres.I previously booked Chris back in 2021 to speak at the Bowie 75 pop-up I produced in New York City. There, he presented on Bowie and Brian Eno's 1995 album Outside.Chris is here to discuss his updated book, what new archival releases have taught us about Bowie's creative process, and why he chose the blog format to tackle one of music's most ambitious projects.If you are interested in more of our episodes touching on the life and work of David Bowie, check out last week's episode with Donny McCaslin, 2022's episode with Chris Duffy, or 2021's episode with David Whitehead.–Dig DeeperChris O'Leary's blog "Pushing Ahead of the Dame"Rebel Rebel: The Songs of David Bowie, 1963-1976 (revised edition, July 2025)Ashes to Ashes: The Songs of David Bowie, 1976-2016Repeater BooksDig into this episode's complete show notes at spotlightonpodcast.com–• Did you enjoy this episode?

Step into the hazy swirl of distortion, pain, and beauty that is Siamese Dream, the breakthrough sophomore album from The Smashing Pumpkins. Released in 1993, this record solidified the Chicago band as one of the most important forces in the alternative rock explosion of the early '90s. Crafted under the intense perfectionism of frontman Billy Corgan, Siamese Dream was famously recorded under heavy emotional and psychological strain. With internal band tensions, Corgan’s battles with depression, and drummer Jimmy Chamberlin’s drug issues, the album was nearly doomed before it began. But out of chaos came a sonic masterpiece. Produced by Butch Vig (who also produced Nevermind for Nirvana), Siamese Dream is both lush and brutal — blending dense guitar layering with orchestral elements and raw emotion. It opens with the thunderous “Cherub Rock”, a track that sets the tone with explosive drums and swirling fuzz. Other standouts include the beautifully melancholic “Disarm,” the shoegaze-tinged “Mayonaise,” the soaring “Today,” and the crushing “Silverfuck.” The album was a commercial and critical triumph, debuting at #10 on the Billboard 200 and eventually going 4× Platinum. Critics praised its intricate production, emotional intensity, and ambition. It remains a defining album of the ‘90s — a tortured, beautiful document of a band and a frontman trying to keep it together while making something transcendent. Siamese Dream isn’t just a record — it’s a world to get lost in.

Bad Bunny—Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio—is once again at the epicenter of music and pop culture headlines as his name electrifies both the music world and social media feeds this week. The big news: Bad Bunny is officially set to headline the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show in Santa Clara, California, on February 8, 2026. Social platforms erupted after his announcement, with TikTok and Instagram instantly trending with clips from his new halftime promo, where he stands atop a football goal post, vibing to his own tracks. Press outlets explain that Bad Bunny has dedicated the upcoming performance not just to himself, but to his people, declaring, “This is for my people, my culture, and our history—let your abuela know, we will be the Halftime Show of the Super Bowl.”The choice of Bad Bunny, acclaimed for breaking language barriers and championing Latin and queer identity, sparked intense debate on platforms like X and YouTube. According to nss sports and The Shade Room, the artist's selection is seen by many as a cultural milestone for the Latin community, given that he'll likely perform in Spanish and infuse the show with Puerto Rican and broader Latino culture. However, conservative pundits and figures tied to the Trump campaign have publicly criticized the move, labeling Bad Bunny a political lightning rod due to his outspoken stances on immigration and social justice. MAGA-aligned voices like Corey Lewandowski and others described the NFL's decision as a “middle finger to MAGA,” emphasizing how contentious polarization remains around visible Latino public figures.Bad Bunny himself has recently chosen not to bring his current tour to the U.S., citing ongoing worries about harsh immigration enforcement under current federal policy. On TikTok, he explained that he and his team opted out of a stateside tour because of fears about potential ICE raids, directly referencing increased immigration actions targeting event venues. These issues intersect sharply with the news that ICE has just revealed plans for a substantial presence at the 2026 Super Bowl, which will heighten scrutiny and concern regarding how immigration policy plays out at high-profile cultural events.Musically, fans are still catching waves from his newly released album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos.” Dropped at the start of this year, the album blends reggaeton, electronic dance, and genres deeply rooted in Puerto Rican tradition. It's his most introspective record to date, exploring themes like nostalgia, community, and Puerto Rico's complex relationship with the U.S. Singles like “El Clúb” and “Pitorro de Coco” have generated millions of streams, with “DTMF” topping Billboard's Global 200 chart. Rolling Stone, Billboard, and Variety have all celebrated the project for its raw emotional power, cultural honesty, and inventive sound—a personal and political letter to the island and diaspora Bad Bunny loves.His massive San Juan residency wrapped up last month and drew half a million attendees, with the local economic impact estimated at $700 million. This summer's shows featured surprise appearances from global sports and music figures, reinforcing Bad Bunny's cross-cultural clout. His world tour is kicking off in Latin America, Europe, and Asia, with no current plans to revisit the U.S.—a move widely interpreted as both personal protection and pointed commentary.He's also racking up film and ad credits, including a comic cameo in Adam Sandler's “Happy Gilmore 2,” while his “Most Wanted Tour” ranked among the year's highest-grossing music events—over $210 million in receipts.

His blog, Pushing Ahead of the Dame, covers every song on every album in Bowie's extensive canon. The first post from 2009 covers David's first single, 1964's “Liza Jane”, and the most recent is about Chris's latest work, a newly revised edition of Rebel Rebel, a collection of his writings on Bowie songs from 1963 - 1976.

As one third of the legendary rap group Run-DMC, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels—aka Legendary MC, The Devastating Mic Controller, and the King of Rock—had it all: talent, money, fame, prestige. While hitting #1 on the Billboard charts was exhilarating, the group's success soon became overwhelming. A creative who enjoyed being at home alone or with his family, DMC turned to alcohol to numb himself, a retreat that became an addiction. For years, he went through the motions. But when intoxication could no longer keep the pain at bay, he plunged into severe depression and became suicidal. He wasn't alone. During the same period, suicide became the number three leading cause of death among black people—a health crisis that continues to this day. In this episode, we explore the challenges and subsequent psychological growth, resilience, and the deeper human story behind Darryl McDaniels' public persona. We explore themes of identity, mental health, family, creativity, and personal transformation - all central to his life story and his evolution as an artist, advocate, humanitarian and community leader, and he is an inspiration to help us all to live our life in full.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber surged back to headline status this week with confirmation that he will lead the 2026 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival—the first time he has anchored the iconic festival solo and, according to Rolling Stone and Billboard, the result of a record-breaking deal that reportedly nets Bieber over $10 million, the highest payday in Coachella history. Notably, he personally negotiated the terms with promoter Goldenvoice, bypassing agents and taking direct control of his touring business. Industry insiders described the move as groundbreaking and emblematic of Bieber's drive for creative and business autonomy. Bieber made waves on social media with a black-and-white visualizer for his new track Speed Demon, filmed on the Coachella grounds, fueling enormous fan anticipation. His post captioned “see u in April” lit up X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, with countless fans counting down to his major comeback after a four-year hiatus driven by past health issues and tour cancellations. His new album, Swag II, released September 5, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and serves as the foundation for his renewed presence; paired with last year's Swag I, the two make up a blockbuster 44-track rollout that Def Jam and Republic Collective executives credited Bieber as leading with “100 percent creative freedom.” Industry debates continue about whether Swag II is a standalone album or part of an extended release—a testament to Bieber's ongoing evolution and ownership of his work. On the celebrity front, Bieber found himself in the whirlwind of pop culture chatter after his ex Selena Gomez married music producer Benny Blanco in California. While Gomez walked down the aisle, Bieber appeared on social media sporting his new basketball apparel brand, Skyler, and playing in a pickup game. Fan comments swirled, oscillating between sentimental reminders of Gomez's wedding and praise for Bieber's focus on his business and artistic pursuits.Meanwhile, his household profile received an intriguing shift as wife Hailey Bieber's beauty brand Rhode was acquired by e.l.f. Beauty for $1 billion, making headlines in The Hollywood Reporter and AOL. While the exact ownership stake has not been disclosed publicly, estimates place Hailey's post-sale net worth at $300 million, now eclipsing Justin's reported $200 million. Hailey will remain brand chief creative officer, aiming to push Rhode's innovation even further.Justin Bieber's recent activities—masterminding his own touring deals, unleashing chart-topping new music, and living under a household of growing entrepreneurial clout—underscore what appears to be a pivotal period of reinvention. Both his business acumen and creative independence have become storylines of long-term significance, drawing industry attention, fan excitement, and a new wave of headlines sure to be replayed with greater resonance as the countdown to Coachella continues.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Hayden Anhedönia has been making music under the name Ethel Cain since 2019. But it's not just a band name or a moniker; Ethel Cain is a fictional character, a sort of alter ego that Hayden's been creating and world building around throughout her albums. The first Ethel Cain album, Preacher's Daughter, came out in 2022. It ended up blowing up, and it made Hayden the first openly trans artist with an album in the top ten on the Billboard chart. In 2025, she put out the second Ethel Cain album, called Willoughby Tucker, I'll Always Love You. For this episode, I talked to Hayden about how she made the song “Nettles.” As you're about to hear, it took on a lot of different forms, over several years, before she got to the final version. For more info, visit songexploder.net/ethel-cain.
