- 1:02Speaker 1: four or fifteen.

- 1:21Speaker 1: done today because we're gonna stay consistent period. I'm not
- 1:27Speaker 1: missing a day. So let's get on into the latest
- 1:30Speaker 1: so I can get on into my bed. So up first,
- 1:32Speaker 1: in the latest, We've been talking a lot about the
- 1:34Speaker 1: Super Bowl that went down last Sunday in February eighth,
- 1:39Speaker 1: and the Super Bowl sixty was a big hit. So
- 1:44Speaker 1: numbers came out today. Super Bowl sixty averaged one hundred
- 1:47Speaker 1: and twenty seven million viewers that tuned in to watch
- 1:49Speaker 1: the Seahawks play the Patriots.
- 1:51Speaker 2: We know the Patriots did not win.
- 1:53Speaker 1: I'm not really the biggest football person, but I was
- 1:55Speaker 1: bored by the game. And I've heard football people say
- 1:58Speaker 1: they were bored as well too. But I was bored,
- 2:00Speaker 1: but there was nothing that kept me on the edge
- 2:01Speaker 1: of my seat. I was just there for the Bad
- 2:03Speaker 1: Bunny show, as I am every year for most of
- 2:06Speaker 1: the halftime shows, but normally I can kind of get
- 2:08Speaker 1: into the game of bit. I could not, But one
- 2:10Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five million people tuned into maybe one
- 2:12Speaker 1: hundred and twenty four million did now last year's Super
- 2:15Speaker 1: Bowl Super Bowl fifty nine, which featured a halftime show
- 2:18Speaker 1: by Kendrick Lamar, one hundred and twenty seven point seven
- 2:21Speaker 1: million people tuned in Now. Last year's show aired on Fox,
- 2:25Speaker 1: Fox Deportees, and Telemundo, and it also streamed on two B.
- 2:29Speaker 1: This year's show was on NBC Peacock, Telemundo, NBC Sports Digital,
- 2:35Speaker 1: and NFL Plus. Now, the conversation that people are having
- 2:38Speaker 1: is where does Bad Bunny's Super Bowl have time performance
- 2:42Speaker 1: rank in comparison to last year's Kendrick Lamar's performance, because
- 2:47Speaker 1: there are still some people, you know, that feel like
- 2:49Speaker 1: Bad Bunny should not have done the Super Bowl now
- 2:52Speaker 1: in terms of ranking in comparison according to the reports,
- 2:56Speaker 1: and these are the live viewership captures and the first
- 3:00Speaker 1: day out captures, which are the numbers that are captured
- 3:03Speaker 1: by Nielsen, and Nilsen has this new technology that they use.
- 3:08Speaker 1: It's called the Big Data Plus panel, and that panel
- 3:12Speaker 1: or that data Intech system is a measurement mythology, which
- 3:16Speaker 1: officially rolled out in September, and it provides According to Nielsen,
- 3:19Speaker 1: it provides the most accurate TV measurement to date. So
- 3:23Speaker 1: they're saying that Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl performance had one
- 3:25Speaker 1: hundred point thirty three point five million viewers, but Bad
- 3:28Speaker 1: Bunny super Bowl only average one hundred and twenty eight
- 3:31Speaker 1: point two million viewers between the eight fifteen and eight
- 3:35Speaker 1: thirty pm Eastern Standard time. You know what's crazy thinking
- 3:38Speaker 1: about the fact that the Super Bowl is like the
- 3:41Speaker 1: most sought after stage and entertainment and how big of
- 3:44Speaker 1: a deal it is and how many people tune in
- 3:46Speaker 1: for it to only be like that little fifteen minutes,
- 3:50Speaker 1: it's like impossible for anybody to really get into all
- 3:55Speaker 1: the things of their favorite artists, artists they don't know,
- 3:57Speaker 1: whoever you've you only get it's only fifteen minutes on stage.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Bad Bunny did all of that.
- 4:04Speaker 1: He changed scenes about fifty times in fifteen minutes. But
- 4:10Speaker 1: there was a dip from last year, which are making
- 4:12Speaker 1: people have the conversation about, you know, because Bad Bunny
- 4:15Speaker 1: did primarily non English speaking set, which he was one
- 4:20Speaker 1: of the first Latin artists to be able to do
- 4:22Speaker 1: so did the dip The small dip in viewership come
- 4:26Speaker 1: from the fact that people were very visionly like vision
- 4:30Speaker 1: people were very adamant about I'm not watching in super Bowl.
- 4:35Speaker 1: I'm gonna go either, watch Turning Point Ussay's super Bowl performance,
- 4:39Speaker 1: which they did with Kid rock, which yeah.
- 4:44Speaker 2: I was gonna say something.
- 4:45Speaker 1: I don't know if I could say it, though, I
- 4:48Speaker 1: feel like Turning Point ussays, I feel like that second
- 4:52Speaker 1: super Bowl ceremony. I mean I didn't go, or I
- 4:56Speaker 1: didn't watch it or anything, but just listening to it
- 4:58Speaker 1: and so many people involved, it sounds like a k
- 5:00Speaker 1: K meeting.
- 5:02Speaker 2: I mean they yeah, so at that that performance.
- 5:05Speaker 1: You had Kid rocking and tell that other people performing
- 5:07Speaker 1: they honored and paid tribute to Charlie Kirk. It was
- 5:10Speaker 1: just a very much of a different audience on that
- 5:13Speaker 1: side of things. But they had millions, like five million
- 5:17Speaker 1: people tune in for that so bad Bundy was you know,
- 5:19Speaker 1: he was competing. Even though that it's a smaller number
- 5:21Speaker 1: compared to what he did that night, those five million
- 5:25Speaker 1: people still could have made up for something that was
- 5:27Speaker 1: lacking when it came to making people tune in to
- 5:31Speaker 1: Bad Bunny and.
- 5:33Speaker 2: Now here we are.
- 5:35Speaker 1: But I think Bad Bunny's performance though, I think this
- 5:38Speaker 1: conversation and the way that it's talked about around him,
- 5:42Speaker 1: it's kind of one of those things where if the
- 5:46Speaker 1: NFL is coming out and saying that they want to
- 5:47Speaker 1: strengthen their relationship with the Latin community and within their
- 5:51Speaker 1: Latin viewership space, and then you have an artist as
- 5:53Speaker 1: big and as globally big as Bad.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Bunny come and perform and the viewership dips a bit.
- 6:00Speaker 1: It's like, well, they told you from the jump that
- 6:02Speaker 1: they didn't have the strongest viewership in the space that
- 6:05Speaker 1: caters or feels like they're being catered to directly by
- 6:08Speaker 1: Bad Bunny. So not only did they take a risk
- 6:11Speaker 1: in investing in Bad Bunny and platforming him, and I
- 6:14Speaker 1: don't mean a bad risk. I just think they kind
- 6:16Speaker 1: of like they even if it had not worked out
- 6:20Speaker 1: where he beat Kendrick's numbers or.
- 6:22Speaker 2: Whoever, what came with Bad Bunny.
- 6:24Speaker 1: The opportunity for people to learn and grow and meet
- 6:28Speaker 1: this new genre of music was like an investment on
- 6:31Speaker 1: the NFL's part. But let's not get Bad Bunny fed up, Okay,
- 6:35Speaker 1: because Bad Bunny is one of the biggest artists in
- 6:37Speaker 1: the world.
- 6:38Speaker 2: His streaming goes crazy. I saw that he broke Amazon records.
- 6:41Speaker 1: I saw that he broke NFL digital records. Like and
- 6:46Speaker 1: when I say he broke records, I don't mean like
- 6:47Speaker 1: he got a new song coming out.
- 6:48Speaker 2: I mean like there were like four.
- 6:50Speaker 1: Billion people that engaged with content because of Bad Bunny.
- 6:55Speaker 1: The NFL is reporting that Bad Bunny, that Bad Bunny
- 6:59Speaker 1: records on so media like their content that they posted
- 7:02Speaker 1: around him around his Super Bowl performance. There are three
- 7:08Speaker 1: videos that have become the most viewed NFL social media
- 7:11Speaker 1: posts in history, and they are now and those clips
- 7:15Speaker 1: are Bad Bunny clips. So he did crazy numbers across
- 7:18Speaker 1: social We knew the numbers thing was going to happen.
- 7:20Speaker 2: Though.
- 7:22Speaker 1: Bad Bunny was the most watched Super Bowl in US
- 7:25Speaker 1: Spanish language history. The Super Bowl sixty, which is the
- 7:28Speaker 1: Super Bowl that went down to year telecast, also became
- 7:30Speaker 1: the most watched Super Bowl in US Spanish language history,
- 7:33Speaker 1: averaging three point three million viewers on Telemundo across according
- 7:36Speaker 1: to Nielsen, and Bad Bunny became the first Spanish and
- 7:40Speaker 1: language Latin solo artists that headline the Super Bowl have
- 7:44Speaker 1: time show I don't care what y'all say, My super
- 7:47Speaker 1: Bowl performance could have been point five less than Kendrick
- 7:49Speaker 1: Lamar's all that history I just made talk to me
- 7:55Speaker 1: nice or not at all seriously, like who cares? And
- 8:00Speaker 1: then the stuff that he was able to do for
- 8:02Speaker 1: other people, like bringing that little boy on the stories
- 8:07Speaker 1: a taco trucks that's hey, y'all. But yeah, but even
- 8:11Speaker 1: I mean, I have a friend shout out to Ashley.
- 8:15Speaker 1: I have a friend in la who is a dancer,
- 8:17Speaker 1: and she got to dance with bad money on the
- 8:19Speaker 1: super Bowl, like even employing dancers and production crew because
- 8:23Speaker 1: it was such a performance, like.
- 8:27Speaker 3: Good for him. Look, I know if I was a
- 8:30Speaker 3: Expanis descent, like I will be so hyped like seeing
- 8:34Speaker 3: that because you could tell he was showing he was
- 8:37Speaker 3: telling a story and you know, just trying to.
- 8:42Speaker 2: Show pride to you know, his people.
- 8:46Speaker 1: Some thing too, is like Okay, Puerto Rico is a
- 8:49Speaker 1: part of America and I and.
- 8:51Speaker 2: That clearly they forgot about that, right.
- 8:54Speaker 1: So I was gonna say people probably listening there like duh, Lauren,
- 8:57Speaker 1: I'm like, no, you have to say that a lot
- 8:58Speaker 1: of people don't still think that Puerto Rico is the
- 9:00Speaker 1: part of America, and I think because their culture in
- 9:04Speaker 1: their history and you know their languages, and like, there's
- 9:07Speaker 1: so many different things that are different about Puerto Rico,
- 9:10Speaker 1: but there are places in the United States that you
- 9:11Speaker 1: go to, and.
- 9:14Speaker 2: I mean things are different everywhere.
- 9:17Speaker 1: And I think a lot of times with artists that
- 9:19Speaker 1: come from different genres and different backgrounds, it takes forever,
- 9:23Speaker 1: or it takes such a big US crossover for them
- 9:27Speaker 1: to be champion the way that they ever have never
- 9:31Speaker 1: been here.
- 9:31Speaker 2: Like think about j Loo and Shakira, and that's what
- 9:34Speaker 2: I'm saying.
- 9:34Speaker 3: People forgot about that.
- 9:36Speaker 1: No, people didn't forget about it, but they didn't speak
- 9:38Speaker 1: majority Spanish, like he spoke Spanish his whole say. Yeah,
- 9:43Speaker 1: that's the difference. And that's what I mean by like,
- 9:45Speaker 1: you have to cross over. You have to get to
- 9:47Speaker 1: a point where you're this big Latin artist, but you
- 9:50Speaker 1: can also speak, you know, to the American people as well,
- 9:54Speaker 1: speak to the people in the US. And Bad Bunny
- 9:57Speaker 1: was like, I'm going to speak to y'all, but y'all
- 9:58Speaker 1: gon have to come meet me where I'm at. Yeah,
- 10:00Speaker 1: I want to take you all into what I care about.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Look, I'm not mad about it. I'm not mad that
- 10:04Speaker 3: all of it was Spanish. I have no idea what
- 10:06Speaker 3: he said, but I'm glad in the sense he did
- 10:09Speaker 3: to piss them off, and I wanted him to keep
- 10:11Speaker 3: pissing them off next year.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Dude, what is Jessey k pop?
- 10:15Speaker 3: Like?
- 10:15Speaker 2: Do all these different? Like for real? I want to
- 10:17Speaker 2: hear gonna be crazy.
- 10:18Speaker 1: I don't even like I know Bad Bunny because Bad
- 10:21Speaker 1: Bunny used to day Kendle Jake.
- 10:22Speaker 3: I don't know K pop, but I don't have no
- 10:25Speaker 3: idea about it entertaining. I think, don't they do a
- 10:28Speaker 3: lot of dances and stuff like that?
- 10:29Speaker 2: I feel like it'd be entertaining.
- 10:30Speaker 1: Most singers are dance That's not true. I can't think
- 10:39Speaker 1: of one right now, even if the.
- 10:41Speaker 2: Singer is not, like dancing all day long on your
- 10:43Speaker 2: TikTok feed.
- 10:44Speaker 3: Most of them, Yeah, Andrey songs was dancing or singing.
- 10:48Speaker 3: He definitely wasn't a dancer. I'm just saying anyways, that's true.
- 10:55Speaker 1: But basically this some that saw a conversation up like
- 10:59Speaker 1: be Bad Bunny.
- 11:01Speaker 2: I feel like he is one of the most unproblematic.
- 11:03Speaker 1: But Latin people and just Bad Bunny fans in general
- 11:07Speaker 1: have been going so hard for Bad Bunny. It made
- 11:11Speaker 1: me rethink the way that I feel about I've always
- 11:13Speaker 1: felt like people that are barbs, that are like the
- 11:15Speaker 1: die hard ones.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Are like a bit insane, a bit much.
- 11:18Speaker 1: But now I kind of realized, like, no, you gotta
- 11:20Speaker 1: go hard for your artists that you love because people
- 11:23Speaker 1: really be playing with them.
- 11:24Speaker 2: Like people really tried.
- 11:25Speaker 1: To talk about Bad Bunny as if he was going
- 11:27Speaker 1: to get up there and just no one was going
- 11:29Speaker 1: to care.
- 11:30Speaker 3: I don't understand why they would think that he just
- 11:32Speaker 3: got there and wasn't he.
- 11:37Speaker 1: The most like he did his stream he if not
- 11:41Speaker 1: the most stream but one of the most streamed.
- 11:43Speaker 2: But that's what I mean.
- 11:44Speaker 1: Though, And I think the only fan group I can
- 11:47Speaker 1: think of that you're not gonna be able to tell
- 11:49Speaker 1: them nothing about nobody regardless of what happens. And I mean,
- 11:52Speaker 1: she got the accolades to back it up. It's the barbs.
- 11:55Speaker 1: I would love to meet a barb and just like
- 11:57Speaker 1: have a conversation about how does it really mean to
- 12:00Speaker 1: be loyal to the people that you love in music?
- 12:02Speaker 1: Because I've never cared that much about anything that doesn't
- 12:08Speaker 1: directly affect me.
- 12:10Speaker 2: To do a lot of what I'm saying people do.
- 12:12Speaker 1: Like you have legislators trying to pass law because of
- 12:16Speaker 1: the super Bowl.
- 12:16Speaker 2: You have political activists.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Trying to call out other like other activists who aren't
- 12:26Speaker 1: upset about this. You have celebrity Kid Rocks sitting down
- 12:29Speaker 1: with Fox News, I mean Fox News. Also, they're like barbs.
- 12:33Speaker 1: They think one thing and they just stick to it.
- 12:36Speaker 1: I don't know, I just really don't understand the concept.
- 12:38Speaker 1: I'm like, yo, live and let live, like watch it
- 12:41Speaker 1: or don't?
- 12:43Speaker 2: All right?
- 12:43Speaker 1: And speaking of super Bowl news, there's been a story
- 12:46Speaker 1: circulating music artist Little Baby, an NFL player named Kean White.
- 12:50Speaker 1: He's a defensive lineman for the forty nine ers, the
- 12:54Speaker 1: San Francisco forty nine ers. So Kean was shot over
- 12:59Speaker 1: or within the super Bowl weekend at a party that
- 13:02Speaker 1: he was throwing, and the conversation has been like what
- 13:06Speaker 1: happened to him?
- 13:07Speaker 2: And there have been reports.
- 13:09Speaker 1: That Little Baby may have been involved in an argument
- 13:12Speaker 1: that led to the shooting. Now, police have not gone
- 13:17Speaker 1: on a record and named Little Baby at all. There
- 13:20Speaker 1: was a reporter from a local outlet called The Standard
- 13:23Speaker 1: who said that there were eyewitnesses that you know, and
- 13:26Speaker 1: he's saying that this was in a police report that
- 13:28Speaker 1: he saw. But this police report has not been reported
- 13:32Speaker 1: on from anywhere else but from the Standard and people
- 13:34Speaker 1: quoting them.
- 13:36Speaker 2: But this reporter says that he saw a police report.
- 13:42Speaker 1: The police report mentioned that there was an argument that
- 13:46Speaker 1: ensued between two different groups of people. So one crew
- 13:49Speaker 1: was arguing with the other crew. Now police have went
- 13:51Speaker 1: on record and said that they're investigating and that there
- 13:53Speaker 1: whatever happens to them from an argument between two different
- 13:56Speaker 1: groups of people. But the reporter is saying that this
- 14:00Speaker 1: eyewitness ses that one of the crews involved was Little
- 14:03Speaker 1: Baby's crew, allegedly right, and the issue was that Little Baby,
- 14:10Speaker 1: I guess, was trying to get into a party that
- 14:11Speaker 1: Keon White was throwing and that wasn't successful. And then
- 14:16Speaker 1: at some point in somewhere an argument into it, and
- 14:18Speaker 1: then a gun went off and ke On White was
- 14:22Speaker 1: shot in the ankle and then had to have ankle
- 14:25Speaker 1: surgery after you know, being at a party at this
- 14:28Speaker 1: nightclub at a place called Delilah's in San Francisco. Now,
- 14:33Speaker 1: officers said when they arrived to the scene, they located
- 14:36Speaker 1: key On he was suffering from the gunshot wound. They
- 14:39Speaker 1: gave him aid, and he has not been cooperative as
- 14:42Speaker 1: far as like just having a conversation about what happened
- 14:45Speaker 1: to him. He was transported to a local hospital for
- 14:48Speaker 1: non life threatening injuries, and then what they found out
- 14:53Speaker 1: wasn't because of anything that Kean said, but it was
- 14:55Speaker 1: because of the investigation that they had.
- 14:59Speaker 2: Police are still saying that this suspect is unknown now.
- 15:01Speaker 1: I reached out to representatives for a little Baby, I
- 15:03Speaker 1: reached out to his publicist. I've also reached out to
- 15:06Speaker 1: his attorney. Nothing back yet. I have also reached out
- 15:10Speaker 1: to the San Francisco Police Department multiple times. I'm going
- 15:13Speaker 1: to try again following this reporting, I was trying to
- 15:18Speaker 1: kind of like wait until police gave more about suspect information.
- 15:23Speaker 1: But they are so quiet on this that you don't
- 15:27Speaker 1: really know what's happening.
- 15:29Speaker 2: Now.
- 15:29Speaker 1: Keon did make a statement from the hospital. He's okay,
- 15:34Speaker 1: he says, for those who know me, y'all know this
- 15:36Speaker 1: won't stop me from spreading peace and joy to the world.
- 15:39Speaker 1: Full steam ahead. I'm in great spirits and ready to
- 15:41Speaker 1: make the most of this off season now. Kean was
- 15:44Speaker 1: also in attendance at the Super Bowl game and then
- 15:48Speaker 1: they headed on over to the after party, where things
- 15:51Speaker 1: ensued unfortunately, but he is okay. So nothing we can
- 15:55Speaker 1: do but kind of like stay posted and know that
- 15:57Speaker 1: the story will develop. It when it does, I'll be
- 15:58Speaker 1: back here with all the facts, all right, y'all. So
