US Latino Pop Stars Singing In Spanish: A Business Move or A Cultural Rediscovery?

03.25.2018 | By |

You’ve heard them – Miguel, Demi Lovato, Becky G, Jennifer Lopez – all US Latino pop stars who randomly decided to sing in Spanish. Why? What were the reasons behind it? Is it a money-grabbing business move or is it a genuine rediscovery of their cultural roots? Music journalist Isabela Raygoza and I explore whether Latino music listeners buy into their strategy to reach them in their language or if it stinks of commerce. In this podcast episode, we discuss if US Latino pop stars singing in Spanish are being disingenuous about their love of their roots or if they are for real.

‘Lengua, Cámara y Acción’: Could Don Francisco Replace David Letterman?

04.8.2014 | By |

In my weekly syndicated radio segment on the Luis Jimenez Show, “Lengua, Cámara y Acción,” on X96.3FM IN NY, I brought up who could replace David Letterman when he retires in 2015 and Luis thought Univision’s Don Francisco had a shot. Following was a hilarious skit of how the Late Show would sound with Don Francisco on CBS. But all joking aside, if there was one person that could pull it off in the television Spanish language market, it’d be Don Francisco. Luis and I also chat about Captain America‘s box office April record and if superhero movies have an expiration date, plus Demi Lovato‘s nude pics on the internet with Wilmer Valderrama! Listen to the radio segment and tell us what you think!

6 Singers That Should Follow Christina Aguilera’s Footsteps

09.5.2013 | By |

In today’s market Latinos are the No. 1 purchasing consumers and by 2015 they will have the buying power of $1.5 trillion according to a 2012 Nielsen report. In music, artists need to strategize how they will attract this bilingual group, and of course for some it might be easier than others. The following six musicians have branded themselves as American artists, but have a Latin ancestry which makes them the representation of the new generations who speak both Spanish and English. Like Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez, and the late Selena these six artists have the power to successfully play both sides – American and Latin – even if they don’t speak Spanish well, or at all.
