This is a space where I'll be interviewing artists on
culture and music politics, and sometimes we even get personal
akita inflows p English, because that's what best reps you
is latinos, So make sure that's happened every week. M
(00:48):
is something I grew up with, believe it or not,
but in English, I love me a guitar, and I'm
glad that in my experience, I never Teeter Tard with
this insane question of what can say quote unquote actual
music or gave music. I was just living and experiencing it.
Yo Yo viva oh Si Yomi ganas Ya Moore. Living
(01:23):
in Puerto Rico, TA mean was such a blessing. I
immersed myself in the music scene, and I have to
be honest, I had to open my mind a bit
when I lived there, because rock and roll isn't the
first thing that comes to mind when I hear a
dr or pr I had to check myself like, okay, wow, gringa,
am I subscribing to stereotypes. Well, that was quickly shot
(01:45):
down with exposure and through I joined in on a
live recording session with these two bands, Martos and Solo
Fernandez in a studio where the legendary one Luis.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Gera actually records.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
I saw them right record Vibe out, I saw them
play live. I met other roqueros and checked myself before
I wrecked myself through Paya and when I lived in
Puerto Rico, I feel like, both online and in person,
I'm constantly reminded Puerto Ricans will not let you forget it.
And even from the beginning of this platform, the other
(02:21):
scenes exist because everyone was quick to let me know
all Puerto Ricans don't even like reggaeton. In fact, some
even hate it, and so instead a lot of them
listen to rock. And so today's episode is with an
artist who fuses both genres. Right now an amazing, soulful
(02:42):
visionary artist from Bee Fure, And in today's Goligo, we

We'll be right back after these messages and coming up
is an amazing interview with two Dominican amazing artists.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Dual Man talks the personal Yosi.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I was reminded to keep an open mind when thinking
of the diversity in music of Mana and wonderfully refreshed
on the range of.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
Right now.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
I remember when she first stepped out onto the scene.
I was like, oh, she's ecentric, bro, she's.
Speaker 3 (19:21):
A little weird.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
But before you gather me, weird doesn't mean bad. It
just means not typical, not cliche, not basic.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
Weird is good. WE love weird.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
I think the world needs more weird. The first time
I saw her. I was watching her concert backstage and
I pulled up with Viana Si Persona and Jenny Malta
shout out to her to watch Vianna open up for her.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
I love their song.
Speaker 1 (19:50):
It's queer excellence to me, I think right now's entire
philosophy of taking advantage of the moment. Right now it's epic,
not just her musical philosophy and discography, but to all
of us weird those paying attention to the ways of
the world, working on and trying to figure out how
to make best sense of what's going on, but also
(20:14):
stay active while stay motivated. That's hard and for her
music to do that, that's powerful me hand salmental Ma
must have seen sal. You can't praise sad emotions away
all the time. Sometimes it requires medication, therapy and or help.
And that's okay. I speak from experience. I don't relish
(20:37):
and putting all my story out there just yet because
the Internet is harsh.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
People are not nice. It's a cruel place.
Speaker 1 (20:43):
What I do feel comfortable sharing at this moment as
advice is saying, okay, salumental mental health is your business.
If you need help, go get it. And that's sacred information.
Share it only with those who respect who you really
are and want the best for you. I know very
well if I share something like that and then made
(21:05):
it to the family group Chatmi, I'm going to jail.
Speaker 3 (21:09):
We kill somebody. Okay, we're not gonna do that. We're not.
We're not condoning that. I'm kidding. But also boundaries.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
But back to our first start today right now, I'm
happy for her from twenty twenty to now twenty million
monthly listeners on streamers, amazing features like Bad Bunnies with
Petal de Debbie Dea.
Speaker 3 (21:32):
Okay, my eyes are glued on her and what she
does next?
Speaker 1 (21:36):
