Fernando and I discuss various artists and music trends in our video podcast episode. We mention artists like Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Cristina Aguilera, Pereza, Melendi, Aitana, David Bisbal, Pablo Alborán, Pablo López, and more. We will talk about the music scene in the 2000s, mentioning bands like La Oreja de Van Gogh, Estopa, Vetusta Morla, M-Clan, Amaral, El Barrio, or Elefantes.

We also touch on the emergence of reggaeton in the 2010s, with artists like Don Omar, or Daddy Yankee, Pitbull. But not only, because there were other artists like Orishas, and other who were not yet so famous, like Luis Fonsi. This one would create the later phenomenon of “Despacito.” We discuss the impact of music talent shows like “Operación Triunfo” in Spain, which launched the careers of artists like David Bisbal, David Bustamante, Manuel Carrasco, Pablo López, and Aitana.

In the Latin American music scene, we will review artists such as Gustavo Cerati (from Soda Stereo), Juanes, Julieta Venegas, Shakira, Thalía, Paulina Rubio, Alejandra Guzmán, Maluma, Karol G, Natti Natasha, Nicky Jam, Wisin, Ozuna, and more.

However, I must be honest. We express our personal opinions. We can’t like everything! I guess neither many other people. That’s ok.

We also discuss the shift in the music industry and the impact of algorithms and image over talent.
