Bad Bunny is making major headlines this week, not just in music but across economic news and social media, all thanks to his blockbuster residency in San Juan, Puerto Rico. He's currently in the final stretch of his historic **No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí** residency at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum, which wraps up September 14. The residency has cemented itself as a cultural phenomenon, shattering attendance records and bringing an estimated 600,000 fans to the island. Promoters say ticket demand is still “off the scale,” and the economic effects are undeniable: The New York Times reports the residency's impact on tourism has created a direct economic gain of $250 million, with overall spending pushing $400 million during what's normally Puerto Rico's slow season.Bad Bunny himself recently said to Today that this residency has been “so far my best experience in music, maybe life.” He's performing at home, with his family, and says showing off Puerto Rico's culture “right there in my house” is something “magical.” ASM Global, which manages the venue, confirmed preparations for the extended residency had been in motion for over a year, and Bad Bunny surprised fans with spontaneous appearances, like the pop-up show at a local college bar back in January.A-listers are flocking to his shows. This week, Cuban actress Ana de Armas went viral after videos surfaced of her partying, dancing, and sharing laughs at Bad Bunny's residence in Puerto Rico. Spanish actor Paco León also attended, posting his own party footage to social media, which racked up millions of views and left fans buzzing about who else might show up.Other recent celebrity sightings at the concerts include Latin pop icon Belinda, who said their first meeting lived up to the hype—videos of the two together, dancing onstage, exploded across Instagram and TikTok. Every new guest appearance becomes an instant trending topic, and social feeds are flooded daily with clips from the show, dubbed by many as “the event of the year” in Latin music.Bad Bunny is also making news due to his absence at this year's MTV Video Music Awards. Despite being nominated for awards like Best Latin for “Baile Inolvidable,” Best Album for **Debí Tirar Más Fotos**, and Best Artist—alongside Beyoncé, Kendrick Lamar, Taylor Swift, and The Weeknd—he skipped the awards ceremony because of his residency schedule, leading fans and industry insiders to talk about the growing power of live performances over traditional awards shows.Drama sparked online this week when Bad Bunny's loyal fanbase called out Israeli artist Odeya Azoulay for allegedly copying the album cover art from his most recent album. The controversy went viral so quickly that Spotify took down her single after fan pressure, and discussions about artistic integrity and cultural ownership trended across social platforms.Musically, Bad Bunny continues to thrive. His album **Debí Tirar Más Fotos** is one of the most streamed projects of 2025, anchoring his residency shows and maintaining a constant presence on global playlists. Music sites like InMusicBlog praise Bad Bunny's influence, noting that his latest project helped kick off what's being described as a monumental year for new albums across the industry.As the residency heads into its closing nights, anticipation is building for Bad Bunny's upcoming eight-month world tour, slated to begin in December. Industry insiders are already predicting more record-breaking numbers, putting him at the forefront of not just Latin music, but the global pop landscape.Thanks for tuning in.

In this episode of You Have to Wear Something, we dive into how Black creativity thrives even in America's most turbulent times. From Motown in the civil rights era to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour and Kendrick Lamar's intentional casting choices, Black artists continue to reclaim the spaces and genres they built. We unpack the revival of rap with the Clipse, the overdue celebration of dark-skinned beauty in culture and fashion, and the importance of authentic representation on screen—from The Gilded Age to British Vogue covers. It's a celebration of resilience, artistry, and the ongoing fight against erasure.
“Surround yourself with people you admire.” In this episode of Recording Studio Rockstars, I had the pleasure of talking with Brendan Duffey, a multi-Grammy-nominated mix and mastering engineer with nearly 30 years of experience. Brendan has worked with legends like Kendrick Lamar, Sheryl Crow, Milton Nascimento, and Bruce Dickinson—best known as the iconic lead singer of Iron Maiden and a legendary solo artist in his own right. Brendan brings a deep understanding of both the technical and emotional sides of music production. We talked about everything from his early days teaching audio engineering—where he learned how to explain complex concepts in simple ways—to his approach to mixing and mastering across different genres. Brendan shared what it was like to remix and master much of Bruce Dickinson's solo catalog, how he thinks about low-end in hip-hop, and why sometimes a mistake in the studio can lead to your most exciting creative breakthrough. He also opened up about how vocal production has changed over the years, moving from an auditory process to a more visual one, and why he believes simplicity, emotional connection, and knowing your tools inside and out are what really make a mix come alive. Brendan reminded me that mixing isn't just about the gear or the plugins—it's about bringing out the best in the performance and creating something that moves people. This was a killer episode with tons of great insight, whether you're just starting out or deep in your career.

We head to Fort Worth, Texas—a city that's quickly becoming a key player in the film world. We sit down with Taylor Hardy, Commissioner at the Fort Worth Film Commission and Director of Video Content at Visit Fort Worth, to explore how this once-overlooked city has transformed into a go-to destination for major productions like 1883, Lawmen: Bass Reeves, and even music videos from artists like Kendrick Lamar.Taylor shares how it all started. Back in 2015, Fort Worth didn't even have a film office. Fast forward to today, and it's hosting large-scale productions and attracting top-tier talent. Taylor walks us through that journey—from scouting locations herself as an intern to building a film-friendly culture rooted in community, collaboration, and a can-do attitude.Taylor highlights the city's hands-on approach—from helping with scouting and permits to offering hotel rebates and travel support. She also touches on the city's new training initiative, the Fort Worth Film Collaborative, which helps locals jump into film work by applying existing skills to the production world. With over 200 students already enrolled, it's a clear sign of the city's investment in long-term industry growth.Taylor also breaks down the state's revamped film incentive program and shares how Fort Worth helps productions access these benefits while also offering additional support through local programs and community outreach.Whether you're a producer looking for a new filming location, a filmmaker navigating state incentives, or someone building out a local crew, this episode is a must-listen.About WrapbookWrapbook is a smart, intuitive platform that makes production payroll and accounting easier, faster, and more secure.

August 31, 2025 Welcome back to Grifty, the podcast where cult wellness, corporate greed, and authoritarian politics meet at a potluck dinner nobody wanted. Tonight's theme is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again plan, better known as MAHA. The Trump team is branding it as a health revolution. But peel back the organic avocado sticker and it looks more like the same old MAGA project: pretend to fight for wellness while quietly dismantling the science and institutions that actually keep people alive. Let's dig in. ⸻ Segment 1: The Food Fight Nobody Ordered Robert F. Kennedy Jr., serving as Trump's Health Secretary, launched MAHA to target ultra-processed foods, artificial dyes, and chemical additives. Big food corporations such as Kraft Heinz, Mars, and Kellogg have already pledged to remove synthetic dyes by 2027 under mounting pressure (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-robert-kennedy-maha-food-plan)). Supporters frame MAHA as consumer protection. Critics see Kennedy using it to market himself as America's wellness crusader while sidelining medical professionals and spreading distrust in vaccines and science. Questions: 1. Is this food reform real progress or just wellness-washed authoritarianism 2. Should we be celebrating slightly cleaner Pop Tarts while the CDC is gutted behind the scenes ⸻ Segment 2: Polls Love Food Reform, Hate Science According to an Axios Ipsos survey, 87 percent of Americans support stronger food safety rules, with bipartisan backing (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Nobody is begging for more Red Dye No. 40. But vaccines remain a dividing line. Gallup found that Republicans are significantly less supportive of childhood vaccinations than Democrats, leaving MAHA as a unifying food crusade that simultaneously deepens America's science divide (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). Food For Thought: 1. Does this prove people only support science when it is about snacks 2. What does it mean when food safety unites but basic vaccines divide ⸻ Segment 3: GOP Breaks Up With Big Food The Republican Party has suddenly distanced itself from Big Food. Instead of defending corporations, GOP leaders are aligning with suburban parents worried about chemical exposure and warning labels on junk food (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/31/rfk-republicans-gop-business-make-america-healthy-again-maha)). But corporate donors are not walking away quietly. Agricultural giants like Mountaire and Reyes Holdings are resisting regulation, and their financial influence means the fight is just beginning. Questions: 1. What happens when Republicans break up with Big Food, and who is their rebound 2. How long before Fox News says Biden wants to ban Oreos ⸻ Segment 4: MAHA's War on Science The Trump administration is using MAHA to undermine public health. The CDC is being overhauled and senior scientists are resigning in protest of political interference and Kennedy's rejection of mRNA technologies (The Hill (https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/5475599-trump-administration-overhauls-cdc/amp/)). Experts warn this is not temporary. Cutting research programs and pushing conspiracy rhetoric risks decades of progress in medicine and public health Questions: 1. What does America look like when essential oils replace vaccines 2. How do we measure the long term cost of this brain drain from the CDC ⸻ Segment 5: Killing Cancer Research While Posing As Wellness Saviors While Trump and Kennedy promote MAHA as a children's health movement, they are simultaneously dismantling federal programs designed to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer's, and ALS (House Appropriations Committee (https://democrats-appropriations.house.gov/news/press-releases/trump-team-dismantles-efforts-find-cure-cancer-and-other-deadly-disorders-and)). The cruelty is in the timing. The New York Times reported promising breakthroughs from a new pediatric brain cancer trial group just this week (New York Times (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/well/pediatric-brain-cancer-trial-group.html)). While researchers bring hope to families, Washington is choking off the funding that sustains them. Questions: 1. How do you square calling yourself pro child health while cutting cancer research 2. Is this just political theater that uses kids as props ⸻ Segment 6: MAHA 2026 Political Weaponized Wellness Kennedy and Trump are positioning MAHA as a key wedge issue for the 2026 midterms. The strategy is to woo suburban women, independents, and younger voters with promises of food safety and wellness transparency (Axios (https://www.axios.com/2025/08/24/rfk-jr-maha-strategy-2026-midterms)). The contradiction is glaring. They say they care about your family's health, yet they are dismantling the very systems that could save your family from disease. It is not Make America Healthy Again. It is Make America Hypocritical Always. Questions: 1. Is this wellness movement just MAGA wrapped in Whole30 branding 2. How do Democrats fight back against a political cleanse disguised as health reform ⸻ OUTRO That is MAHA in all its kale washed glory. A movement pretending to save you from Lucky Charms while cutting off cancer research and gutting public health. This is violence with branding. Trump and Kennedy are not protecting families, they are using wellness as a mask for authoritarian power. Kendrick Lamar. Please take us out.

In celebration of Peter, Bjorn and John's breakthrough third album, 'Writer's Block,' we take a detailed look at how it was made. When Peter Morén and Björn Yttling started playing music together in high school, they bonded over a shared love of guitar rock. When they moved to Stockholm after high school, they met John Eriksson, who was a trained percussionist, playing in a percussion ensemble. They eventually asked him if he would consider playing drums with them in a pop band and the trio, Peter Bjorn and John, was born. In 2001, they self-released their first EP with a self-titled album following in 2002. They jumped between Swedish labels Beat That! Records to Planekonomi and released their second album, 'Falling Out' in 2004. At this point, they considered ending the band, but decided to make one more album and record it themselves with Yttling producing. 'Writer's Block' was eventually released in 2006. In this episode, Peter Morén reflects on connecting with Yttling early on and how their sound evolved over the years. Morén shares how he originally approached guitar by using multiple chords and leaving little space until Eriksson encouraged him to play less. Björn Yttling describes his role as the producer and how the recording space he had at that time was not conducive to recording a full band. Despite the constraints of having no budget and only a couple of microphones, they were able to capture a unique sound by relying heavily on minimal drum arrangements, percussion overdubs and extensive use of a Space Echo. John Eriksson discusses his naive approach to the drums and how the relaxed recording atmosphere helped them to try new things with this album. With Morén and Yttling encouraging him to write and sing for the first time, Eriksson was able to add another dimension to the album with his own attempts at writing pop songs. From using a drum kit found in a trash heap, to relying on whistling instead of recording synth lines, to making the drum lines sample-able, to how hip hop artists like Drake, Kanye West and Kendrick Lamar would go on to rap over beats from the album, to being in their late twenties and feeling like the band had run its course, to the unexpected global success of “Young Folks”, we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.
Dr. Orna Guralnik broke barriers by bringing actual therapy sessions to millions of viewers through Showtime's hit docuseries “Couples Therapy” — but her rebellious streak started much earlier. In this episode, Dr. Guralnik talks about the songs that transformed her into a "real" teenager, the therapist who changed her life, and how music has sparked both connection and conflict in her family. Plus, she draws a surprising line between Kendrick Lamar and Igor Stravinsky—and explains why therapy, like music, is a lifelong process of learning and discovery. Here are her seven songs. The Beatles - Let It Be Igor Stravinsky - Rite Of Spring Lou Reed - Coney Island Baby Robert Wyatt - A Last Straw Tuxedomoon - Bonjour Tristesse Modest Mouse - The Good Times Are Killing Mw Kendrick Lamar - Sing About Me, I'm Dying Of Thirst

This episode of Across The Margin: The Podcast presents an interview with Sean Enfield, an essayist, poet, bassist, and educator from Dallas, TX. Currently, he resides in Milwaukee, WI where he is a PhD candidate at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He received his MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Alaska-Fairbanks where he served as the Editor-in-Chief of Permafrost Magazine. Now, he serves as an Assistant Nonfiction Editor at Terrain.org. His essays have been nominated for three Pushcarts and he was featured on NPR's All Things Considered as a finalist for their Three Minute Fiction contest. His debut essay collection, Holy American Burnout!, — the focus of this episode — was the runner-up for the Ann Petry Award, a finalist for The Megaphone Prize, a finalist for River Teeth's Literary Nonfiction Book Prize, and is available now. Threading his experiences both as a Texan student and later as a first-year teacher of predominantly Muslim students at a Texas middle school, Holy American Burnout! weaves personal essay and cultural critique into the historic fabric of Black and biracial identity. In it, Enfield intersects examinations of which voices are granted legitimacy by virtue of school curriculum, the complex relationship between basketball and education for Black and brown students, his students' burgeoning political consciousness during the 2016 presidential campaign, and cultural figures ranging from Kendrick Lamar to Hamlet. These classroom narratives abounding in Holy American Burnout! weave around Enfield's own formative experiences contending with a conflicted biracial family lineage, reenacting the Middle Passage as the only Black student in his 7th grade history class, and moshing in both Christian and secular hardcore pits. As Enfield wrestles with the physical, mental, and emotional burdens that American society places on educators, students, and all relatively conscious minorities in this country, he reaches for an education that better navigates our burnt-out empire.

Before Kendrick Lamar became one of the greatest lyricists of his generation, he was K.Dot—a kid from Compton with a front-row seat to trauma, loyalty, violence, and survival. This is the story of good kid, m.A.A.d city and the real-life events that fueled it. It's about a drive-by shooting that changed Kendrick forever. About a murder. About a robbery. About friends who vanished and others who couldn't be saved. It's about escaping the cycle without forgetting where you came from. And above all, it's about mercy—in a world that rarely offers any.

On this episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show Podcast, Rickey Smiley and the crew spoke about various topics. At this year’s MTV VMAs, Drake and Kendrick Lamar will go head-to-head, once again, in the highly competitive Best Hip Hop category—Drake with “Nokia” and Kendrick with “Not Like Us.” While Kendrick is also up for Artist of the Year, Video of the Year, Album of the Year, and Best Direction, Drake's sole nod underscores the intense rivalry powering this showdown. Meanwhile, former MLB star David Justice made headlines by opening up about his marriage to Halle Berry. Justice said that Berry proposed to him and candidly revealing it ended because “she didn’t cook or clean”—and reflecting that “therapy might have saved the marriage.” On the political front, President Trump held a press conference addressing crime and “beautification” initiatives in D.C., proposing federal control of law enforcement and possible National Guard deployment despite a 26% drop in violent crime this year.
