Starting point is 00:00:03 Now the most dominant act when it comes out of the Latin music field has released another track. And when it comes to the pronunciation, I'm not going to lie to you. I don't know if it's a Lombaypua, because of course, when it comes to that specific language, it's not my native tongue. I don't know if y'all can tell. But with that being said, Bad Bunny during his first three nights at the Puerto Rico residency, which I believe he posted on his IG. I believe that's what this is right here.
Starting point is 00:00:33 DREAM video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio. Anyways, with that being said, the main thing I wanted to get into, especially with Bad Bunny releasing a new single, shortly after he just put out an album and is doing phenomenal. Like really, when you look at the charts, this album came out January 5th. It is July 18, 2025, and it's still the eighth most played track project in the world. So Bad Bunny's album, Debbie Tararamos Photos, is the eighth most played project in the world. Nuevaiole is the 66 66 most played track
Starting point is 00:01:07 off of the album actually that's confusing it's the 66 most played track in the world and it's the most performing, it's the best performing track off of his album. Nueve Yo has been on the charts for about 17 weeks
Starting point is 00:01:22 and when it comes to EOO I don't even know how you pronounce it as a EU I don't know. That is the 84th most played track in the world currently and it's been on the charts for 25 weeks. So whenever I call Bad Bunny, the mascot of Latin music, I don't mean as a disrespect. I ultimately mean that this man is really putting forth and breaking barriers and breaking ground for Latin musicians should showcase just how far it can go, especially when it comes to notoriously affecting the masses. As you can see right here, Bad Bunny is on my
Starting point is 00:01:56 banner for the specific year of 2025. As in the top right, you see Bad Bunny, right? Because of course, when making my banner, obviously I cover gaming and music. And when I, well, analytic dreams video on Spotify to see the video along with the audio because you probably even know what I'm referring to. And it's in the top right, that's Bad Bunny, of course. And the main thing about this podcast is getting into IPs from the music and gaming side that notoriously impact the masses, you know, pun intended. So of course, we have Mario, Jay-Z.
Starting point is 00:02:24 We have Drake, Fortnite. We have GTA, Nikki. We have Taylor Swift, CSGO. We have Minecraft, size seven. I mean, white tank top. I mean, oh my goodness. Always forget his name. Kendrick.
Starting point is 00:02:35 Yeah, Kendrick. And then, of course, we have Bad Bunny and a Spider-Man. So ultimately, I have immense respect for Bad Bunny and his effect on the masses. And the way that he affects the masses, especially the ultimate way that he elocutes his native tongue. And, of course, people who aren't speaking in that language still resonate sonically. and of course structurally and the beat wise it's fantastic and infectious to the point where you're going to keep replaying it over and over again which i always say as far as me getting into different genres if i can't understand the language guess what i'm essentially listening to sonically is it pleasing my two things is sonically is it pleasing and the structure of the song the bridge the chorus the verse because usually i've listened to enough music at this point that i could tell where like like, which is what? You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:03:30 If I hear something again as far as a certain melody or a certain pattern three times, I'm like, okay, well, that's the chorus. If I hear some before that, that's the same time twice. That's usually the bridge. And, you know, the verses is in between those or after. So when it comes to that, I do enjoy music outside of hip hop and R&B, of course, which is why the podcast kind of is performing the way it is because, or the way it is currently, because of my coverage of not only k-pop but because of the latin music field afrobees uh bollywood all
Starting point is 00:04:02 type of genres that i'm just hopping into diving deep into the culture trying to figure out why in the world is this so impactful to the masses and breaking it down you come to realize bad bunny is still putting in pain still putting in that work like he's an up-and-coming artist as if you don't know he had a 30-date residency that started seven days ago so july 11th of this year and this is in Puerto Rico and if you don't know is Puerto Rico's largest indoor arena in the opening track each night is of course this track that's out now on all DSPs titled Alambray Pua so now with that being said you come to realize what should I go to a bad bunny show well that's up to you if you want to go all the way to Puerto Rico for a bad bunny show it seems like a
Starting point is 00:04:49 great town to me I ain't a lot to you 30 songs per night as far as what bad bunny set list is um includes tracks from Debbie Debrate Marmott's photos of course the album that's out this year but it's also featuring tracks from Un Verano Centi so now when you look at it and you ultimately reserve the first nine shows exclusively for Puerto Rican residents you're going to realize that people will travel to go see Bad Bunny because why would they even have that it's almost like people would travel across the globe to go see Bad Bunny perform and it's almost like it's because he's that good you know and And the special guest so far as far as his Puerto Rico residency is LeBron James, Joel Y, Randy, I don't know who that is, and others.
Starting point is 00:05:31 So ultimately, the main thing I want to let you know is that Bad Bunny is still the mascot for Latin music currently as far as having the eighth most play project in the world, as far as having two tracks in the top 85, as far as EO being the 84th most play track in the world, that being on the charts for 80, that being on the charts for 25 weeks. And then of course you have Nuevaiole, which is the 66 most play track in the world. And that's been on the charts for about 17 weeks. So with that being said, with his latest track out now, that of course I probably busher the pronunciation, but, you know, it definitely was not on purpose. Alambre Pua, click my link tree in my bio.
Starting point is 00:06:09 Let me know one of my social media is. What do you think about the track? And ultimately, will you be heading to Puerto Rico to attend one of Bad Bunny shows at his Puerto Rico residency? Thank you.
