The 1970s were a dangerous time in Ireland. An era known as “The Troubles” began in the late 1960s. It was protestants vs. Catholics, British loyalists against Irish unionists, the British army vs. the IRA, the UDA, and other groups… There were bombings, assassinations, guerrilla campaigns, and roaming paramilitary groups, both official and unofficial. It saw civil disobedience, riots, mass protests, segregation, and many, many deaths…more than 3500 people, mostly civilians, died before things calmed down in the late 90s.  July 31, 1975, was one of the bloodiest nights in the history of Irish music…in fact, it rivals some of the worst violence against musicians outside hits involving drug cartels in Mexico and South America…and people are still looking for answers. I'm Alan Cross, and this is episode 50 of “Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry”. This is the story of what became known as “The Miami Showband Massacre”.

In this milestone 100th episode of the Que Bola Podcast, I had the honor of sitting down with Miami legend Oscar G, a true pioneer in the house music scene. This episode is particularly special for me, as it marks a significant achievement in my journey as a podcaster—100 episodes of hard work, passion, and dedication. Oscar shared his early experiences growing up in Miami, where he began DJing at just 12 years old, influenced by the vibrant b-boy culture and the music scene of the time. We discussed how he and his friend Ralph Falcone formed Funky Green Dogs and started producing music, navigating the challenges of the industry without the modern conveniences of digital technology. Oscar recounted the struggles of getting their music recognized, the importance of building a label, and how they had to create a façade of multiple artists to gain traction. He also reflected on the evolution of the Miami music scene, highlighting the pivotal role of clubs like Score and Liquid in shaping the underground culture. Throughout our conversation, Oscar emphasized his passion for the craft rather than the pursuit of fame or financial success. His dedication to being a master of his art is evident, and it was inspiring to hear how he balances his career with being a husband and father. This episode is a celebration of not just my podcasting journey but also the rich musical heritage of South Florida, showcasing the talent and resilience of artists like Oscar G who have paved the way for future generations. Thank you to everyone who has supported me along the way, and a massive shoutout to Oscar for being a part of this landmark episode!

One of our brightest musical talents is making waves across the ditch, just in time for some new music to drop. Cassie Henderson arrived on our screens in 2014, competing on X-Factor at 14 years old, and making it all the way to the quarterfinals. She stepped away from music for a while, before returning to the industry in 2023, quitting her job to pursue music fulltime. Since then, Henderson's won awards, released new music, and is currently competing on the The Voice Australia. “It was the biggest opportunity for me to grow, and rise up, and test myself,” she said of performing on TV. “I get messages a lot from young people in New Zealand saying that I inspire them, which is always a huge dream, but it's almost a little bittersweet because I know how long I've been working at this, and I know how long I haven't had success for.” “It's a really tough gig, but it's always been my passion, and it's what I love the most in the world, so it's no question for me.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma has been generating headlines once again as both his music and personal brand show signs of entering a new phase. Just a few days ago, his striking new shaved haircut went viral after he posted it to his nearly eight million TikTok followers, as covered by Los40. The change, which wipes away his era-defining mullet—previously viewed as a signature part of his artistic persona—has followers speculating about an upcoming album or a shift in his musical direction though there have been no concrete statements or official hints about releasing a new studio project since Éxodo. Peso is clearly aware of how his image ties into his art and public mystique, as every transformation seems calculated to mark a new creative era.In business news, the Peso Pluma PRIME Energy can has finally debuted across the US in Mango flavor, according to Candy Creations. This marks Peso's first dedicated PRIME Energy release for the American market, following massively popular hydration bottle collaborations. Given how quickly previous Peso Pluma PRIME bottles became must-haves, industry watchers see this rollout as one of the most impactful celebrity beverage partnerships this year.Social media mentions also soared following his public appearance at New York Fashion Week. According to reporting from Lefty, Peso ranked among the top 10 NYFW influencers by earned media value with a massive $1.24 million, bolstered by over 15 million followers and an impressive 8.1 percent engagement rate. This is evidence of his evolving crossover appeal, not only as a recording star but a pop-culture force touching music, fashion, and lifestyle branding.Romance rumors, meanwhile, are stronger than ever. Peso Pluma and Kenia Os, who most outlets now refer to as his girlfriend, appeared together at the Willy show and continue to trend on YouTube and Instagram, where their appearances and flirtatious public dynamic are fervently dissected by fans, as seen on Ultimate Couple Goals content.Musically speaking, even as Peso Pluma's songs dominate streaming, he's back in the news for his association with the controversial narco-corrido genre. The World recently reported that new cultural policies in Mexico are aiming to counterbalance artists like Peso, whose narco-corridos have become synonymous with both musical innovation and controversy over messaging. As the government pivots with a nation-wide music contest intended to promote anti-violence lyrics, Peso Pluma stands as both a symbol of regional Mexican music's global rise and a touchstone in debates about art, identity, and social responsibility.With no major new music released in the past week but mounting business ventures, fashion world appearances, and social media speculation, Peso Pluma's current moves suggest an artist aware of both his influence and the scrutiny that comes with being at the intersection of culture, commerce, and controversy.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

They also talked about audio setup issues and technical adjustments for a live stream. The conversation briefly touched on the situation with Jimmy Kimmel and the role of politics in late-night talk shows, but Jan stopped the discussion before it could become too political. The conversation ended with a brief discussion about the shift towards streaming media and its impact on traditional broadcast ratings.Music Industry and Concert TrendsThe group discussed various topics including concert ticket prices, the changing music industry, and upcoming tours. Ken shared his experience attending Paul McCartney's concert in Las Vegas, while Curt explained his involvement in setting up equipment for The Who's tour.

Wayne explained that while the WNS is less expensive at $35, it doesn't work as well as the Cedar units, which are more expensive but offer better customization with 6 frequency bands.

With the growing popularity (it's appreciated!) of the pod, some people in the music business are less than delighted with the frank discussions that take place for the listening pleasure of ticket buyers. James was reminded of the fact that not everyone is a fan when he spoke to an irate agent this week.So Gav and James take some time to reflect on the impact of 2 Promoters, 1 Pod and how it's viewed by some people on our side of the fence.Is it possible that they might have a point?

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma made headlines recently when he unveiled a dramatic new shaved haircut on TikTok, a move that has fans speculating about whether this signals a fresh artistic era or even the approach of a new album. Los40 US notes that his new look replaced his signature mullet, which had become an iconic emblem of his early success and was credited with reigniting the retro hairstyle trend, much like his musical innovations had with corridos tumbados. This aesthetic shift, posted to his nearly eight million TikTok followers, comes on the heels of a period of relative quiet in the press after 2023's media frenzy, world-conquering album releases, and a string of high-profile collaborations and award wins.Romantically, Peso Pluma has kept the tabloid fires burning. His relationship with American model and influencer Hanna Howell has transitioned from subtle social media hints to more open displays of affection. People reports that the couple have recently adopted a puppy together, showcasing a new domestic chapter through Instagram and TikTok posts. Their romance first surfaced backstage at a Peso Pluma show in July 2024 and has since become a subject of influencer gossip following their public appearance, hand-in-hand, at Lollapalooza Chicago this August. Before Howell, Peso Pluma's personal life included a well-publicized split with Argentinian singer Nicki Nicole in early 2024 and earlier rumors surrounding Brazilian star Anitta following their steamy collaborative performance at the TikTok Music Festival, though neither confirmed a relationship.On the business front, Peso Pluma continues to command attention outside of music. According to Influencer Intelligence, he was the artist with the highest social media value posting about New York Fashion Week, effectively tying his brand to global fashion conversations and amplifying his crossover appeal. Meanwhile, CampaignLive observes that Peso Pluma, alongside icons like Bad Bunny and Karol G, remains a key figure in shaping the globalization of Latin music, with marketers urged to watch his trajectory as his influence expands well beyond the Spanish-speaking world.In terms of controversy, there was a brief but serious incident reported by AOL News in which Peso Pluma canceled a U.S. concert in Indiana, citing cartel death threats linked to his lyrics, underscoring the sometimes perilous intersection of celebrity and real-world violence in the Mexican music scene. There are currently no confirmed upcoming music releases, but persistent speculation persists among fans that these recent changes hint at a new project, especially as Peso Pluma's every move—from personal milestones to style changes—continues to shape both his own evolving narrative and the international profile of regional Mexican music.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 has just closed out his epic two-year Forget Tomorrow World Tour and, in a move that stunned fans and shook headlines, he revealed via Instagram on July 31 that he's been privately battling Lyme disease. Rolling Stone reported Timberlake's emotional message, where he described the illness as “relentlessly debilitating, both mentally and physically,” finally shining a light on the rumors swirling about his recent “lackluster” performances and noticeable fatigue on stage. As Timberlake explained to Deadline and Collider, there was a moment during the grueling tour when he considered canceling altogether, but the joy of performing drove him to push through pain and exhaustion. Fellow NSYNC member Chris Kirkpatrick posted heartfelt support on Instagram, applauding Justin's grit and noting how he went from “tough” to “next level strong,” powering through nerve pain night after night.Across social media, Timberlake's vulnerability about his diagnosis has sparked waves of empathy and discussion. His tour's challenges didn't go unnoticed online; videos captured at the Electric Castle festival in Romania went viral, showing Justin under a hooded parka, often letting backing tracks carry his vocals and encouraging the crowd to sing along, fueling memes and debates on TikTok and Twitter. Consequence Music reported fan disappointment but now, in light of his health revelation, there's a broader sense of understanding in the commentary. Timberlake remains unapologetically honest, telling The Hollywood Reporter that he chose openness over privacy to help others understand the toll Lyme disease can take.Businesswise, Timberlake's empire is healthier than ever, even if its namesake isn't. TheTradable confirmed his net worth has surged to the $350-400 million range, powered by his recent $100 million sale of his song catalog to Hipgnosis, ongoing royalties, and investments in fashion, streaming, and real estate, despite any temporary setbacks caused by health struggles.While some gossip points to speculation about Timberlake's future—will he headline the 2026 Super Bowl Halftime Show or pivot more to acting with the in-development Social Network sequel—these are currently rumors and unconfirmed by his camp. For now, the verified narrative centers on Justin Timberlake's resilient spirit on display after a demanding tour, his candid health updates captivating fans, and his enduring dominance across both industry headlines and social feeds.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has dominated headlines and social feeds over the past week with a blend of cheeky antics and serious music moves. His most viral moment came courtesy of his Instagram, where he posted several photos and videos riding a Segway through the woods and hanging out with friends wearing little more than tighty-whities, proving he's still the king of thirst traps. Fans flooded the comments, some asking for his wife Hailey to reclaim his phone, but most just loved seeing Justin so unfiltered and playful. According to Mix929, Bieber doubled down, sharing at least seven videos of himself doing solo karaoke from his basement, belting out tracks from his new albums SWAG and SWAG II. He earned praise for giving fans raw live vocals and, not surprisingly, prompted speculation about a possible comeback tour—a possibility that has some fans gleeful and others cautioning that mental health stays the priority after his last world tour was canceled mid-run due to health concerns.Business-wise, Bieber moved fast. Hot off the release of SWAG just two months ago, he dropped SWAG II in classic surprise Bieber fashion, with a midnight launch that didn't actually land until early morning due to technical hiccups. Both The Hollywood Reporter and Q92.9 note that this marks the first time Bieber's released two full albums in one year, signaling a new prolific phase in his career after several years of musical hiatus. SWAG II reportedly draws heavily from his marriage to Hailey, fueling fresh rumors about potential lyrical references to ex Selena Gomez. As FandomWire points out, Bieber's new music—combined with cryptic social posts about delays and track drops—has generated speculation but no confirmed drama between him and Gomez.Meanwhile, paparazzi and celeb-watchers caught Bieber sporting a scruffy beard while traveling via private jet, and TMZ TV lampooned the star for his nearly-naked Segway photo ops, calling him an enigma who craves privacy yet parades his quirks for millions. There's been zero credible controversy in his relationship, despite ongoing internet conspiracy theories capitalizing on every playful moment or cryptic lyric.In summary, Justin Bieber is showing fans every side of himself: eager performer, prolific hitmaker, and inveterate Instagram exhibitionist. The surprise album drops and potential hints at future tours are undoubtedly his most significant moves, with music industry insiders pegging Bieber's SWAG era as a comeback that could reshape his legacy for years to come.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

The conversation captivated listeners as Bria explained the song's bold title and its relevance to contemporary relationships. Challenging Norms with a Provocative Title Bria Cheri revealed that the title "Boy Toy" was a deliberate choice, designed to be provocative and challenge traditional gender roles within relationships. She shared that the song's narrative is a powerful blend of personal experience and broader observations, serving as an anthem for reclaiming power and agency. The song redefines the "boy toy" label, transforming it from a term of subservience into a symbol of strength and self-possession. Musicality and Emotional Authenticity Beyond the lyrics, Bria discussed the meticulous crafting of the song's musicality. She highlighted how the instrumentation was carefully chosen to evoke a sense of confidence and empowerment, complementing the single's powerful message.

So, no matter what genre of music the artist had, she always welcomed them to her show in addition to recommending them to the affiliated stations.

The interview can be found on YouTube entitled, “Sway's Universe” at https://youtu.be/rKVkfZgWgVw.

Sarah wants Susie to see T-Pain with her in Denver, and Susie's up for it, but had to confess she doesn't know any of his songs. We discuss one-hit-wonder band, Devo, why they were misunderstood, why they never had another hit, and how expectations determine how a band deals with only having one hit. We find out the origin story for Sweet Caroline being played at sporting events, why a tragedy caused the ritual to spread, and why Susie is still confused about how the song became interactive. Plus, we learn why Sarah hates "swaying" songs. Susie and Sarah have a sing-a-long with church and camp music.

Mango Bae is back with indie rock legend Anand Wilder (co-founder of Yeasayer, now flying solo with his new album Psychic Lessons). In his record-breaking fourth appearance, Anand talks about making music in the TikTok era, why Cracker Barrel logos matter more to America than statues, and a wild Dublin story that proves everyone's racist (yes, even the Irish). He also unveils his absurd 1-800-BOG-PEOPLE hotline, blending surreal humor with sharp truths. It's music, madness, and Mango at its finest—equal parts hilarious, unfiltered, and dangerous.
