3. The Hustle of Content Creation & Risk-Taking

Theme: Technical growth, hustling in entertainment, and advice for creators.

Theme: Reggaetón’s generational shifts, marketing methods, and the resurgence of veterans.

• Deep dive into effective album rollouts, mentioning Tito El Bambino’s marketing and Bad Bunny’s campaigns.

7. Reggaetón’s Club Scene & Generational Divide

Theme: Why clubs are struggling and how new artists’ attitudes differ from their predecessors.

• Clubs are declining due to violence and the changing nature of youth social interaction (more online, less drinking and dancing).
• Critique of modern artists who skip performing at clubs, aspiring only to arenas and big paydays, compared to prior generations’ willingness to hustle in smaller venues.
• Shoutout to J Lexis for keeping the club tour tradition alive and being “súper prendido” on social media ([103:03]).

Quote:
“Estos cabrones se creen ahora Mariah Carey, no quieren cantar si no han hecho… Esto se jodió, el género urbano en PR se jodió por ese ego.”
