Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticNotorious Mass Effect: Éxodo de Peso Pluma y el Ascenso Global del CorridoEste segmento explora la última entrega de Peso Pluma, el extenso álbum doble Éxodo, con un enfoque en su explosiva colaboración con Cardi B en "Put Em In The Fridge".Éxodo: Un Espectáculo de Doble ÁlbumPeso Pluma lanza su cuarto álbum de estudio, Éxodo, un gigante de 24 pistas que presenta una gama diversa de colaboradores. Este lanzamiento sigue su Génesis ganador del Grammy y marca su continua exploración más allá de los corridos tradicionales. Aquí, se aventura en el hip-hop y el reggaetón sin dejar de lado sus raíces.Cardi B y la Poderosa "Put Em In The Fridge"Una de las pistas destacadas de Éxodo es la electrizante "Put Em In The Fridge", con la legendaria Cardi B. Esta colaboración es una fuerza a tener en cuenta, uniendo a dos figuras poderosas en sus respectivos géneros. Las letras de Pluma destilan control y dominio, mientras que Cardi B inyecta su característico estilo con referencias a figuras influyentes como Al Pacino.Fusión Musical: Corridos y Más Allá"Put Em In The Fridge" ejemplifica el paisaje sonoro único de Éxodo. La pista combina a la perfección elementos tradicionales mexicanos como las trompetas y la guitarra requinto con el bajo pesado de los ritmos trap modernos. Esta fusión refleja la misión general de Éxodo: ampliar los límites de los corridos integrándolos con los mundos del hip-hop, el reggaetón y el trap. Pluma no se detiene en Cardi B, ya que Éxodo cuenta con colaboraciones con Rich the Kid, Quavo, DJ Snake, Anitta, Arcángel y Ryan Castro.Estrella Global, Impacto Cultural y ControversiaPeso Pluma se ha convertido en un fenómeno global, llevando los ricos sonidos de la música mexicana, particularmente los corridos, a un público más amplio. Sin embargo, su ascenso no está exento de polémica. Los corridos tienen un vínculo histórico con la cultura del narcotráfico, algo que Peso Pluma reconoce pero que maneja con cautela debido a las posibles amenazas de los cárteles. En Coachella, trazó paralelismos entre los corridos y el movimiento del gangsta rap de los 90, destacando el complejo legado del género.Éxodo: Una Declaración de Visión ArtísticaÉxodo puede verse como el manifiesto artístico de Peso Pluma. Muestra su versatilidad y ambición de trascender la escena musical regional mexicana y convertirse en una fuerza global. El álbum cuenta con corridos tradicionales y experimentos rompedores con el hip-hop y el reggaetón, lo que refleja su evolución artística. Este crecimiento se enfatiza aún más por su éxito en las listas y su capacidad para colaborar con estrellas internacionales.Peso Pluma: Una Fuerza Global en la Música MexicanaÉxodo, con sus colaboraciones repletas de estrellas como "Put Em In The Fridge" con Cardi B, ejemplifica la misión de Peso Pluma de elevar los corridos a un nivel mainstream. Este innovador álbum no solo amplía sus horizontes musicales sino que también consolida su posición como un artista global que mezcla sin miedo las influencias culturales y empuja los límites de la música mexicana.Notorious Mass Effect: Peso Pluma's Éxodo and the Global Rise of CorridosThis segment explores Peso Pluma's latest offering, the expansive double album Éxodo, with a focus on his explosive collaboration with Cardi B on "Put Em In The Fridge."Éxodo: A Double Album ExtravaganzaPeso Pluma drops his fourth studio album, Éxodo, a 24-track behemoth featuring a diverse range of collaborators. This release follows his Grammy-winning Génesis and signifies his continued exploration beyond traditional corridos. Here, he ventures into hip-hop and reggaeton while staying true to his roots.Cardi B and the Powerhouse "Put Em In The Fridge"One standout track on Éxodo is the electrifying "Put Em In The Fridge," featuring the legendary Cardi B. This collaboration is a force to be reckoned with, uniting two powerhouse figures in their respective genres. Pluma's lyrics exude control and dominance, while Cardi B injects her signature swagger with references to influential figures like Al Pacino.Musical Fusion: Corridos and Beyond"Put Em In The Fridge" exemplifies the unique soundscape of Éxodo. The track seamlessly blends traditional Mexican elements like horns and requinto guitar with the heavy bass of modern trap beats. This fusion reflects Éxodo's overall mission: pushing the boundaries of corridos by integrating them with the worlds of hip-hop, reggaeton, and trap. Pluma doesn't stop at Cardi B, with Éxodo boasting collaborations with Rich the Kid, Quavo, DJ Snake, Anitta, Arcángel, and Ryan Castro.Global Star, Cultural Impact, and ControversyPeso Pluma has become a global phenomenon, bringing the rich sounds of música Mexicana, particularly corridos, to a wider audience. However, his rise is not without controversy. Corridos have a historical link to narco culture, something Peso Pluma acknowledges but treads carefully around due to potential threats from cartels. At Coachella, he drew parallels between corridos and the '90s gangsta rap movement, highlighting the complex legacy of the genre.Éxodo: A Statement of Artistic VisionÉxodo can be seen as Peso Pluma's artistic manifesto. It showcases his versatility and ambition to transcend the regional Mexican music scene and become a global force. The album boasts both traditional corridos and genre-bending experiments with hip-hop and reggaeton, reflecting his evolving artistic vision. This growth is further emphasized by his chart success and his ability to collaborate with international stars.Peso Pluma: A Global Force in Mexican MusicÉxodo, with its star-studded collaborations like "Put Em In The Fridge" with Cardi B, exemplifies Peso Pluma's mission to elevate corridos to a mainstream level. This innovative album not only expands his musical horizons but also cements his position as a global artist who fearlessly blends cultural influences and pushes the boundaries of música Mexicana.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
In this episode of Wiki U Kyle and Jheisson cover the Yugoslavian/Mexican music mashup, Yu-Mex. While it is no longer a country, the story of Mexican music and movies weaving their way into Yugoslavian culture is fascinating. With a WWII uprising against the Nazi's and a split with Soviet Russia, the people of Yugoslavia identified with the parallel story of the Mexican Revolution. Another revolution was brewing in Yugoslavia in the late 1980's when Brad Pitt visited the country to film The Dark Side of the Sun. The Wiki Boys break down the film and learn about Pitt's fist leading role.Our sponsor for this episode is Magic Mind!

Carlos Niño, Liv.e, Andre 3000 and Luis Pérez Ixoneztli discuss how their music is inspired by spirit, the feeling of creating sounds that are meaningful to them, and how they stay open to learning during their lives in music.Producer, percussionist and composer Carlos Niño started making beats aged 17 with Fabian Alston, before becoming a radio DJ in California. In 2008, he started Carlos Niño & Friends, and has worked with the likes of Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Photay and Kamasi Washington. His music blends orchestral arrangements and acoustic instruments with cutting-edge production techniques; in September of this year he released his new album, (I'm just) Chillin', on Fire. Hailing from Dallas, Texas, experimental R&B artist Liv.e is known for her hypnotic voice and eclectic musical influences. She was first introduced to music through the church ,but now draws inspiration from the likes of Lalah Hathaway and Wayne Shorter, as well as Dallas-based label Dolfin Records. In February of this year she released her critically acclaimed second album, Girl in the Half Pearl. Composer, ethnomusicologist and multi-instrumentalist Luis Pérez Ixoneztli is a hugely influential figure in Mexican music, who's dedicated years of research to the pre-Columbian instrumentation of Mesoamerica, travelling around the country to study the musical traditions of Mexico's native peoples. His music has been described as “perhaps the ultimate fusion of ethnic and modern music”; in 2013, his work was inducted into the Archive of Mexican Music, 32 years after it was first published. Andre 3000 is an American rapper, singer, record producer and actor who is best known for being one-half of hip-hop duo Outkast. He's sold millions of records around the world, with hit singles such as Hey Ya! and Ms. Jackson, as well as acting in series such as The Shield and films including All Is by My Side, a 2013 biopic about Jimi Hendrix.
Regional Mexican music has taken the music industry by storm. Earlier this year, Mexican artist Peso Pluma and band Eslabon Armado made history when their song "Ella Baila Sola" topped the Billboard Global 200 chart. But this musical trend didn't come out of nowhere. In this episode of NPR's Alt. Latino, hosts Anamaria Sayre and Felix Contreras head to Peso Pluma's performance in Nashville and try to understand the root of the phenomenon.
Peso Pluma, a Mexican musician who is reaching the heights of his fame has been threatened by CJNG. The threats come in the form of four different narcomantas and warned him not to perform his upcoming shows in Tijuana. A "narcomanta" is a term used in Mexico and some other Spanish-speaking countries to refer to a type of banner or sign that is often hung in public places or left at the scenes of criminal activities by drug cartels or organized crime groups. These banners typically contain messages or warnings to rival gangs, law enforcement, or the public.Narcomantas are often used by criminal organizations as a means of communication and intimidation.The term "narcomanta" is a combination of "narco," which is short for "narcotráfico" (drug trafficking), and "manta," which means blanket or sheet in Spanish. These banners are typically made from large sheets of fabric or plastic and are often adorned with messages written in bold letters.The messages can range from threats and boasts to claims of responsibility for violent acts.Narcomantas have been a prominent feature of Mexico's drug cartel culture and are used to convey messages, issue warnings, and sometimes even to announce truces or alliances between rival groups.They are a symbol of the ongoing violence and instability associated with the illegal drug trade in some regions of Mexico and other countries. Law enforcement agencies and governments in affected areas often work to remove and investigate narcomantas as part of their efforts to combat organized crime.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmial.comsource:Peso Pluma, One of Mexico's Biggest Stars, Threatened by CJNG Cartel Over El Chapo Songs (vice.com)This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

In this episode, we welcome back the CEO of the Recording Academy, Harvey Mason Jr., to discuss the pressing issues currently facing musicians of color, such as the advancement of AI-generated music, the struggle for fair compensation, and the rise of Regional Mexican Music as a global force. We explore how the Grammys are addressing these issues, and pose the question: Will AI ever win a Grammy for Record of the Year? Segment 1: Purpose of Grammy's on the Hill Harvey Mason Jr. discussed the importance of Grammy's on the Hill, an annual advocacy event in Washington DC, which supports three crucial bills: The Hits Act, the American Music Fairness Act, and the RAP Act aim to address fair compensation, creative rights, and freedom of expression for artists. He explains how these bills could be transformative for artists of color, reducing the racial wealth gap and providing better financial opportunities. Segment 2: Challenges Faced by Artists of Color Mason acknowledges the historical lack of rights and limited monetization opportunities for artists of color. He recognizes the challenges faced by musicians in the industry and stresses the need for collective action to fight for their rights. He emphasizes the importance of valuing and supporting the creative community. Segment 4: Live Event Ticketing Reform Mason emphasizes the need for reform in the live event ticketing marketplace, discussing predatory practices, lack of transparency, and unfair ticket pricing that prevents fans from enjoying live performances and artists from receiving their fair share. He explains the Academy's efforts to work with Congress, bring stakeholders together, and address these issues in order to gain reform support. Segment 5: The RAP Act and Artistic Expression Mason explains the significance of the RAP Act, which seeks to protect artists from having their lyrics used as evidence against them in criminal trials. He discusses the importance of ensuring that artistic expression is not used as evidence and the ongoing efforts to pass this legislation at the state and federal levels. He emphasizes protecting artists' rights and freedom of speech. Segment 6: The American Music Fairness Act Mason discusses the American Music Fairness Act, which aims to establish performance royalties for songs played on AM/FM radio. He highlights the lack of performance royalties for artists in the United States, making it one of three countries without such provisions. Mason emphasizes the importance of providing equitable compensation for artists and the potential economic benefits for the music industry. Segment 7: AI's Impact on Music and Grammy Potential Mason addresses the rise of AI in music creation and its implications for the industry. He explains that AI-generated works are currently ineligible for Grammy consideration, as they are not copyrightable. Nevertheless, he recognizes the creative potential of AI and emphasizes the need for thoughtful regulation and safeguards to protect human creativity and ensure fairness. Segment 8: Concerns about AI and Cultural Appropriation Mason acknowledges the ethical concerns surrounding AI-generated music and the potential for cultural appropriation. He expresses the Academy's concern about protecting artists' faces, voices, and names from exploitation without permission or license. He emphasizes the need for regulations to prevent unauthorized use of artists' likeness and vocal sound, regardless of race. Segment 9: The Rise of Regional Mexican Music Mason reflects on the borderless nature of music and the opportunity for people to explore and appreciate different genres and cultures. He discusses the global impact of Regional Mexican Music, highlighting its success on streaming platforms. He emphasizes the power of music to connect people, foster understanding, and create positive change, making it an exciting time for the industry. Learn more about your ad choices.

Synopsis Today's date marks the birthday in 1885 of María Joaquina de la Portilla Torres, in the Mexican state of Guanajuato. Under her married name of Maria Grever, she became the first female Mexican composer to achieve international fame. She composed her first song at age four, studied in France with Claude Debussy among others, and at 18, one of her songs sold 3 million copies. At age 22, she married Leo A. Grever, an American oil company executive, moved to New York City, and by the 1930s was composing for Paramount and 20th Century Fox films. Her best-known song is probably "What A Difference A Day Makes" (originally "Cuando vuelva a tu lado"), written in 1934. Her songs have been recorded by singers ranging from the Andrews Sisters and Frank Sinatra to Dinah Washington and Aretha Franklin to Plácido Domingo and Juan Diego Flórez. “I am interested in Jazz and Modern Rhythms,” said Grever, “but above all, in Mexican Music … There is such a cultural richness in Mexican Music, its Hispanic and indigenous origins ...

Juan de Marcos González is a Grammy-winning bandleader, composer, arranger, tres player, producer and entrepreneur, and maybe most importantly, the producer of the original recordings of Cuba’s Buena Vista Social Club. The impact of those recordings - Buena Vista Social Club, The Afro-Cuban All Stars´ A Toda Cuba Le Gusta and Introducing Ruben González, by a small independent label with a modest budget in Havana in 1996 helped reintroduce the classic sound of popular Cuban music to the world. In the process, it also made global stars of a group of old but brilliant musicians, some of whom had been forgotten even in Cuba. This year Juan de Marcos is celebrating its 20th Anniversary of those recordings with a new live double album and with a tour of the West Coast.
Born in the streets of Los Angeles, Las Cafeteras are children of immigrants who are remixing roots music and telling modern day stories with eclectic instruments, including jarana’s, requinto, a donkey jawbone, a West African bass instrument called the Marimbol, cajón, and a wooden platform called the Tarima used to dance Zapateado. Las Cafeteras formed as a band in 2008 to document the histories of their neighborhoods through music. They started as students of the Eastside Café, a Zapatista inspired community space in East Los Angeles where they were influenced by the culture, storytelling, and poetic music of Son Jarocho, a traditional music from Veracruz, Mexico. To honor women and challenge masculine language, they feminized their group name by calling themselves, Las Cafeteras, rather than Los Cafeteros. They have recently returned from a sold out national tour and will be playing Friday night at California State University in Northridge. The daughter of musicians, Kesenia Valenti was born and raised in the port of Khodka, Russia – literally the last stop on the Trans-Siberian Railroad. The isolation didn’t stop her. She began studying classical piano at 6, was a finalist on the national Russian television program ‘Sing if you Can” and found a way to move to Los Angeles to study acting and continue her musical career. She began working with producer Mario Marchetti and songwriter Gino Barletta to craft high energy, rhythmic pop songs based on her life. At the same time she began studying comedy, producing comedy videos and acting. Now a triple threat, she has just released her first single, with more on the way.
It all started with a press release announcing that Maná's latest album, Cama Incendiada, had gotten a four-star review. (Well, our distaste for Maná started years ago, but that's a different story.) The fact that a respectable music site like AllMusic would give the most notorious cheese rockers south of the Border such a high rating made us remember other similar cases of great reviews of mediocre Latin pop music by otherwise respectable American music writers. Even when AllMusic expressly states that they "rate albums only within the scope of an artist's own work," the review made us wonder if there was something else at work here: an embarassing double-standard when it comes to reviewing Latin pop music. In other words, can someone seriously claim that Cama Incendiada is "brilliant"?

I first met Alex Nestor and her music when she played with the Salvador Santana band in Los Angeles. She has her own red hot blues and R&B band and plays with the Tang Gang and solo – just her and a keyboard. A life of trial and triumph has shaped her unique sound filled with messages of love, positivity, and healing while channeling the retro soul artists of the 60’s and 70’s. She has recorded 12 albums, countless jingles, and been in over 25 theatrical productions, as well as working with established musicians such as Carlos Santana, Stevie Wonder, The Four Tops, The Fifth Dimension, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons. This is a classic interview recorded in August last year, so don’t call in. I have begun following the career of MITRE, a singer, songwriter and producer from Mexico City now living in Los Angeles. He is building a fan base in English and Spanish in the US with constant gigs and online promotion. His music is a blend of feelings and sounds ranging from tango, pop, Mexican music, rock and street sounds. His first release, "Fugitivo" on iTunes in 2010 in Mexico, Japan, USA, Canada, and the UK exploded with fan clubs around the world. Mitre is now touring to support his most recent album, Deprador, in which he is joined by the soaring voice of Irene Diaz. One of his hallmarks is collaborating with singers like Diaz, and opening his shows with the Catrina – the icon of the Mexican holiday, Dios Los Muertos. He is now playing in southern California, supporting his debut album in Mitre. This interview was conducted in January.
First chapter speak Spanish Café, where Mexican music in general (a little) is described. Come from traditional to modern, but all the music shows we are 100% Mexican. Primer capitulo de Café hablemos español, donde se describe la música mexicana en general (un poco). Vamos desde lo tradicional a lo moderno, pero toda la música que se muestra es 100% mexicana.
Fleishman-Hilliard's Paul Dusseault and Aflac's Laura Kane fill us in on the Aflac Bone Marrow Registration Program which made them a finalist for a 2009 PRSA Silver Anvil Award. Plus, Stephen Chavez, Ketchum's Director of Hispanic Marketing tells us about their award entry on "100 Years of Mexican Music".
In this episode of Arriba! Folklorico Music and Dance of Mexico, we go further into the discussion of the grenres of the Romantic music of the Golden Age of Mexican Music during the 1950s and 1960s with the troubador group called Show Janitzio. The interview is conducted live at Estela's Restaurant in San Antonio, Texas. The musical piece A LA MUJER QUE YO AME begins this episode; and it is played in completion at the end of this podcast episode. Special attention is paid to the composers of these romantic ballads and to the titles of the more famous songs--e.g., Roberto Cantoral, the composer of EL RELOJ, LA BARCA and REGALAME ESTA NOCHE, etc. Also, listen to see which composers and which songs are the favorites of the group Show Janitzio.
In this episode of Arriba! Folklorico Music and Dance Of Mexico, we have an interview with the 4 musicians that comprise SHOW JANITZIO, a musical troubador group that specializes in the romantic ballads of the Golden Age of Mexican Music in the 1950's and 1960's. However, this trio and quartet also show their flexibility by being able to play any style of Mexican music on demand--from boleros to rancheras to corridos to polkas, etc. The differential advantage of this group is the inclusion of the accordion that brings a style all their own. Listen to the 4 musicians as they describe their performances in their home base of San Antonio, Texas, as well as their tours across the cities of the United States and internationally, as well. In another set of podcast episodes, we will have the songs from this group played at the end when we focus upon not only the romantic period of the Mexican Music during the SIGLO DE ORO (the Golden Age), but also the corridos of the Revolucion Mexicana of 1910. Note: This present episode is from the archives of a related podcast called The Struggling Entrepreneur at www.strugglingentrepreneur.com. Although it goes deeper into the history of the group and their struggles to become successful in the world of professional troubadors, the content is just as interesting to the world of folklorico music and dance--especially with the emphasis on the Golden Age of Romantic Music of Mexico. For it is here that we see the final evolution of the serenata (serenade) in the modern day--from its humble beginnings in other genres of Mexican folklorico music, such as in Jalisco (see episode 001 for a brief discussion of the serenade by the charro).
