Shakira BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Shakira continues to make waves as she powers through the final stretch of her Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour. As of today, Wednesday December third, the Colombian superstar is currently performing her South American leg, with shows scheduled in Montevideo at Estadio Centenario tonight and tomorrow night. Following those dates, she'll head to Buenos Aires for multiple performances at Estadio Velez Sarsfield from December eighth through eleventh, then Cordoba on December fourteenth.Looking ahead to the holiday season, Shakira has announced an exciting intimate venue pivot. She's bringing her Up Close and Personal concert series to Hard Rock Live at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. Due to overwhelming demand, a third show has been added to the original two performances scheduled for December twenty-seventh and twenty-eighth, with the additional date set for Monday December twenty-ninth at eight PM.The tour itself has shattered records globally. The twelve sold-out shows in Mexico City earlier this year generated approximately twenty thousand jobs across logistics, security, transportation, and production, according to Billboard. In her native Colombia, Barranquilla's local government estimated her performances generated nearly two hundred and seven billion Colombian pesos in economic impact, equivalent to roughly fifty million US dollars.Shakira's album Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran continues its commercial dominance. The record became the most-streamed album of twenty twenty-four in its first twenty-four hours and achieved seven-times Platinum certification. The album itself won a Grammy for Best Latin Album, cementing her status as a force in the industry.Recent business developments show Shakira expanding her influence beyond music. Epson announced a new partnership with the artist as brand ambassador for the META-CWA initiative, focusing on inspiring youth creativity and innovation through accessible technology.On the charitable front, Shakira demonstrated her commitment to community causes by pledging to donate a portion of proceeds from her July fifth San Antonio concert to Hill Country disaster relief following Central Texas floods.With her net worth now estimated at approximately three hundred fifty million dollars, Shakira maintains her position as one of the most commercially successful Latin artists of all time, boasting over ninety-five million records sold worldwide and more than twenty-seven billion YouTube views.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake continues to generate headlines as December 2025 unfolds, with significant developments spanning his personal life, health, and career ventures. On the relationship front, Radar Online reported today that Timberlake and wife Jessica Biel, who celebrated their thirteenth wedding anniversary in October, are facing notable strain. The couple has been leading increasingly separate lives as their careers diverge dramatically. While Biel, 43, is experiencing considerable success launching her production company Iron Ocean Productions, which has generated hit series including The Sinner, Cruel Summer, and Candy, Timberlake's musical output has stalled since his 2006 breakthrough SexyBack. Insiders claim Biel has expressed frustration that the 44-year-old is contributing little to household efforts despite having a relatively light schedule. The disconnect appears philosophical as well, with sources suggesting Biel is focused on evolving her career trajectory while Timberlake appears fixated on recapturing his former pop music dominance from his twenties and thirties.On the health front, Timberlake recently revealed a significant personal health challenge. Following the conclusion of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour, the singer disclosed that he was diagnosed with Lyme disease during the tour's run. This announcement marks a candid moment where he addressed the condition publicly.Career-wise, Timberlake remains active on the touring circuit. He's currently bringing The Forget Tomorrow World Tour to additional venues, with a December 16th performance scheduled at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Additionally, he's been announced as a headliner for the 2025 Lollapalooza South American festivals alongside Olivia Rodrigo and Tool.His business ventures continue to reflect his Memphis roots. The Memphis native maintains strong ties to his hometown through various philanthropic and commercial endeavors, including his minority ownership stake in the Memphis Grizzlies, which he acquired in 2012.On the creative front, Timberlake is expected to announce a new album soon, reportedly titled Everything I Thought It Was, which would mark his sixth studio LP. The project will feature production collaboration with longtime collaborator Timbaland.His published book Hindsight and All the Things I Can't See in Front of Me, features over 250 never-before-published personal photographs and offers intimate insight into his creative process across music, acting, and personal life.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Country artist Walker Hayes joins Brooke Taylor and Pastor Mark Evans on The Upload to share the powerful story of how he went from skeptic to believer. For years, Walker’s wife Lainey lived out her faith while he stood on the sidelines, unconvinced. But after meeting a man named Craig—a friend whose radical generosity challenged everything Walker thought he knew about love and grace—his heart began to soften. Then, tragedy struck. During the birth of their daughter, Lainey suffered severe complications, and their baby girl was stillborn. Walker calls that heartbreaking moment the event that “made the knee bow.” What followed was a transformation that changed not only his faith, but his family, his music, and his purpose. Walker opens up about grief, grace, and the relentless love of a God who met him in the middle of his pain—and never let go.

Send us a textThis year, Billboard named Lil Baby's "My Turn" the No. 1 R&B/Hip-Hop Album of the 21st Century.  How? Why?When we have game-changing and record-setting classics from Kanye, Kendrick, Drake, Beyoncé, OutKast, The Weeknd and Jay-Z and other genre defing masterpieces, how in the world does "My Turn" sit on the throne?This isn't about if Billboard's decision is right or wrong, but rather, how did we get here?If "My Turn" really beat out every R&B and hip-hop album since 2000, then  either Billboard is onto something, or the way we crown greatness in this era has completely changed.Support the showhttps://www.youtube.com/@lifeonpodcast/videos

Producers and multi-instrumentalists Cate Le Bon, from Wales, and Ouri, who was born in French Guiana, joined Marjorie Hache to discuss their new albums and how much – or how little – location shapes their work. Ouri has just moved back to Paris after spending the past decade in Montreal. She recently released the electro acoustic pop gem “Daisy Cutter”. Cate Le Bon has relocated to South Wales after the end of a relationship, though her 7th album, “Michelangelo Dying”, was produced in Hydra, Cardiff and Joshua Tree.

Show NotesAs artificial intelligence begins generating music from vast datasets of human art, a fundamental question emerges: who truly owns the sound of AI? This episode of Music Evolves brings together a law student and former musician Chandler Lawn, music industry executive and professor Drew Thurlow, Michael Sheldrick, Co-Founder of Global Citizen, and intellectual property attorney Puya Partow-Navid, alongside hosts Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli, to examine how AI is reshaping authorship, licensing, and the meaning of originality.The panel explores how AI democratizes creation while exposing deep ethical and economic gaps. Lawn raises the issue of whether artists whose works trained AI models deserve compensation, asking if innovation can be ethical when built on uncompensated labor. Thurlow highlights how, despite fears of automation, generative AI music accounts for less than 1% of streaming royalties—suggesting opportunity, not replacement.Sheldrick connects the conversation to a broader global context, describing how music's economic potential could drive sustainable development if nations modernize copyright frameworks. He views this shift as a rare chance to position creative industries as engines for jobs and growth.Partow-Navid grounds the discussion in legal precedent, pointing to landmark cases—from Two Live Crew to George R. R. Martin—as markers of how courts may interpret fair use, causality, and global jurisdiction in AI-driven creation.Together, the guests agree that the debate extends beyond legality. It's about the emotional authenticity that makes music human. As Chandler notes, “We connect through imperfection.” Marco adds that live performance may ultimately anchor value in a world saturated by digital replication.This conversation captures the tension—and promise—of a future where music, technology, and law must learn to play in harmony.GuestsChandler Lawn, AI Innovation and Law Fellow at The University of Texas School of Law | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chandlerlawn/Drew Thurlow, Adjunct Professor at Berklee College of Music | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drewthurlow/Michael Sheldrick, Co-Founder and Chief Policy, Impact and Government Affairs Officer at Global Citizen | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-sheldrick-30364051/Puya Partow-Navid, Partner at Seyfarth Shaw LLP | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/puyapartow/Marco Ciappelli, Co-Founder, ITSPmagazine and Studio C60 | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.comHostSean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine, Studio C60, and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast & Music Evolves Podcast | Website: https://www.seanmartin.com/ResourcesLegal Publication: You Can't Alway Get What You Want: A Survey of AI-related Copyright Considerations for the Music Industry published in Vol. 32, No. 3 of the Texas State Bar Entertainment and Sports Law Journal.BOOK: Machine Music: How AI Is Transforming Music's Next Act by Drew Thurlow: https://www.routledge.com/Machine-Music-How-AI-is-Transforming-Musics-Next-Act/Thurlow/p/book/9781032425242BOOK: From Ideas to Impact: A Playbook for Influencing and Implementing Change in a Divided World by Michael Sheldrick: https://www.fromideastoimpact.com/AI and Copyright Blogs:https://www.gadgetsgigabytesandgoodwill.com/category/ai/https://www.gadgetsgigabytesandgoodwill.com/2025/11/dr-thaler-is-right-in-part/https://www.gadgetsgigabytesandgoodwill.com/2025/07/californias-ai-law-has-set-rules-for-generative-ai-are-you-ready/https://www.gadgetsgigabytesandgoodwill.com/2025/06/copyright-office-firings-spark-constitutional-concerns-amid-ai-policy-tensions/Newsletter (Article, Video, Podcast): The Human Touch in a Synthetic Age: Why AI-Created Music Raises More Than Just Eyebrows: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/human-touch-synthetic-age-why-ai-created-music-raises-martin-cissp-s9m7e/Article — Universal and Sony Music partner with new platform to detect AI music copyright theft using ‘groundbreaking neural fingerprinting' technology: https://www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/universal-and-sony-music-partner-with-new-platform-to-detect-ai-music-copyright-theft-using-groundbreaking-neural-fingerprinting-technology/Article: When Virtual Reality Is A Commodity, Will True Reality Come At A Premium: https://sean-martin.medium.com/when-virtual-reality-is-a-commodity-will-true-reality-come-at-a-premium-4a97bccb4d72Global Citizen: https://www.globalcitizen.org/Gallo Music (Gallo Records, South Africa): https://www.gallo.co.za/Global Citizen Festival: https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/festival/Andy Warhol Foundation v.

Send us a textThe room glowed with warm orange light, a full house gathered to celebrate five years of Girls Twiddling Knobs and to witness a bold closing chapter. We brought a live panel to the stage to ask a deceptively simple question: are music technology skills truly crucial for women and gender-diverse artists? What followed was honest, funny, and disarmingly practical—stories about safety in studios, DIY learning, pricing your worth, and the power of choosing collaborators who actually listen.Karen Sutton (Oram Awards) mapped the tough terrain of funding and why mentoring fills the gaps that DIY routes can't always bridge. Rooks, aka Jenny Bulcraig (2% Rising), shared how artists are rejecting microaggressions and confusion in sessions in favor of producers who offer clarity, consent, and better results. afromerm, aka Cecilia Morgan, unpacked how growing technical fluency turns doubt into calm agency on stage, even when met with patronising questions. Glade Marie (Saffron) spoke to intuition, community, and using brand gigs to bankroll creative freedom without apology. Together, we explored how tech skills change careers, why safer spaces are non-negotiable, and how to build sustainable models when institutions look away.We don't pretend the landscape is fair. Arts funding is shaky. Industry gatekeepers still overlook what doesn't fit a KPI. But the path forward is clear: learn the tools that center your voice, set boundaries around money and time, and build the rooms where more of us can thrive. As we prepare a short final season—answering why we're closing and what we've learned—we're archiving the work and passing the torch to the many initiatives pushing this movement forward.If you've ever felt othered in a studio, underpaid for your craft, or unsure how to start charging for your expertise, this conversation is a compass. Listen, share, and tell us the boundary you're setting next.

“And we got a new Beatles song. I can't believe we're talking about the Beatles…. But John Lennon recorded a really corrupted vocal before he tragically died, and it was just kind of there because of some stem separation tech that is only possible because of machine learning. They were able to clean up the vocals, fully on board with the John Lennon estate and the remaining Beatles members, and there's a few others, but this is interesting. It's just, it's a new way of engaging with audio that people, fans are showing that they really like.” – Drew ThurlowThis episode's guest is a former professional musician turned music executive and strategist. He served as Senior Vice President of A&R at Sony Music and has held leadership roles at both Pandora and Warner Music.

I wasn't super self-reflective about it, I just kind of like followed my instincts and continued to do that.” He tells us more about his career journey as a music executive and explains how much the business has changed since he first started out. “There's the whole influencer thing wrapped up in it,” he says, “and the way people, especially Gen Z and younger millennials, fall in love with personalities and artists is different. It's not necessarily bad, it's just different.”(0:12:36) - AI Impact on Music IndustryAs the first half of our discussion wraps up, we turn to the question of whether AI might replace human artists, and Drew offers some surprising statistics. “From our best, really good estimates by places like Deezer and Spotify,” he says, “AI-generated music, even though it's a measurable percentage of all the songs on [digital service providers], is a third of a percent of the royalty pool, and I just want to reiterate that it is a rounding error. Nobody wants this music.” He shares his thoughts on where AI is heading and some of the ways it might help transform the music industry. “On the business side,” he tells us, “there's a lot of evidence that these fans want to engage with music in cool and interesting ways, and these AI tech tools allow them
