Show transcript
00:00
All right. So we're here with the one only Lechero.
00:04
I, so even though the kid,
00:05
he brings the fire to the radio waves here at iheart and
00:09
we wanna get ready for summer,
00:10
bro. Put us on some heat.
00:11
So we have some questions for you.
00:13
I honestly, I just wanna know what's your go to routine
00:15
before? Like you get to the station.
00:17
It, it varies.
00:19
But the first thing,
00:19
first things first is be thankful that I wake up and,
00:22
and, and get to just go about my day.
00:25
but work out more than anything,
00:26
just work out and then yeah,
00:28
it's just wake up,
00:29
work out and then get to work home and make them perfect
00:33
So go to Dona playlist songs you're talking about like the
00:37
ones that my mom used to listen to cleaning.
00:39
Anything. Anything that has Cumbia G I love Cumbia,
00:42
one of my dream collabs that I wanted at one point to
00:45
work with Salina R IP you know I'm saying de la Cordon
00:49
but anything that's Cumbia,
00:50
whether it's Mexican Cumbia,
00:52
which is Soo or Vallenato or Cumbia,
00:55
Viera, Argentina or anything,
00:57
there's something about Cumbia that makes it timeless.
00:59
And if you, if you really think about it,
01:01
like you go to Quinceaneras,
01:02
right? It's almost like the same Cumbia every single time.
01:05
So that's why whenever you have a new Cumbia that's popping billions
01:08
of streams more in that space.
01:09
So, like who's someone that like is coming up that we
01:12
should, you know,
01:12
keep an eye on it?
01:13
You talk to so many people here for me.
01:15
I like this guy named Obe Pala who's super dope.
01:17
He's down in San Diego if I'm not mistaken,
01:19
Oceanside. The brown boys are from out here.
01:22
They're probably one of the most talented guys I've ever gotten in
01:25
the studio with legally.
01:26
He's from Mexico City.
01:27
I believe he's, he's an R and B singer,
01:29
super dope. So many,
01:31
so many. But yeah,
01:32
those are some people that I,
01:32
I'm really like bumping all the time.
01:35
We all have a weird,
01:36
like, music that we listen to.
01:38
Not weird music but like,
01:39
like things we don't music,
01:41
we don't normally tell other people we listen to like,
01:43
what's, what's yours?
01:45
I'll go to sleep to this.
01:47
It's like those,
01:48
those church chants, the Mongolian Gregorian chant.
02:02
Iii I do Gregorian chant.
02:05
OK? This place is huge and I just want to take
02:08
a look at everything else.
02:09
I want to be a,
02:13
let's go fun. Fact,
02:17
I'm on the air seven days a week,
02:19
Monday to Friday. I'm live 2 to 7 and then on
02:22
the weekend we call it tracking.
02:24
It's track but I'm on air seven days a week.
02:28
Latino. That's a hustler right there.
02:33
We have the wonderful social media digital team on your side doing
02:37
the damn thing about who picks Ronnie.
02:39
Ay, that's John Peak.
02:42
John Peaks a legend.
02:43
So what's the song you think?
02:44
It's gonna be the summer song of 2024 summer song of 2024
02:47
For real? I,
02:49
I probably say Kendrick Lamar.
02:50
Not like this. What's up?
02:52
How are you here?
02:54
Everybody's family. I never wanted to be a bad coworker.
03:00
So this is where the money,
03:01
this is where the money is being made.
03:03
So what the sales department does,
03:04
they help us pay our rent essentially,
03:07
but they get us endorsements.
03:08
They, if we need to do commercials,
03:10
they'll be honest like,
03:11
hey, don't forget to read your 32nd.
03:13
So let me break it down for me.
03:15
When I do a commercial,
03:16
say a company wants to pay me three months to read a
03:19
commercial for 30 seconds.
03:20
I read it one time and every week it plays,
03:23
I collect money. Oh,
03:34
smart puddles. Give them a tour little family.
03:38
Family, right? Lechero,
03:42
bro. Why did you name yourself?
03:44
Lechero? Lechero was a nickname given to me in middle school
03:48
It came kind of from bullying in a way.
03:51
They were like hey,
03:52
this fool kinda got mambo are like he probably got no in
03:56
his t is and then got into high school and then I
04:00
just, they just tagged along when I wanted to start djing
04:04
I was like,
04:04
well, everybody calls me chat.
04:05
So I'm, I'm the same person.
04:07
So why am I gonna,
04:08
I know that you turned something that supposedly was negative into positive
04:12
You know what I think.
04:13
That's my, that's my super power.
04:15
I like that. This is a big,
04:17
big Bo squad right here.
04:20
We're going in the lab.
04:23
So this is, this is what we broadcast through San to
04:25
Ross Dias. So we're in the freaking where the magic happens
04:29
go by the equipment in my bedroom.
04:30
Like if you have my house in bed with the magic happens
04:35
Marco is blank in my.
04:37
So guys, this is the board.
04:39
OK? This is where you control the like the mics,
04:41
right? This is what we call a vox,
04:43
bro. This is where we record our calls.
04:45
Speaking of calls, what's the weirdest call you've ever gotten craziest
04:48
call as of late,
04:50
we've had this dedicated listener call from jail facing life.
04:55
And it's crazy because we don't ask that question because
04:59
right before we accept the call,
05:01
they let us know that the call is being recorded.
05:04
And if you accept the,
05:06
you know those rules,
05:07
you gotta press one.
05:08
Shout to the homie if you,
05:09
I, I don't know if you ever get to watch his
05:10
comp but shout out to you d what did your mom think
05:14
of you being a DJ.
05:15
She didn't really care for it until like she saw me
05:18
making money. I was really smart kid.
05:22
4.0 all my family thought I was gonna be lawyer doctor.
05:26
I said I knew I said look dog.
05:27
It's just, it said I know I,
05:28
I gotta, you know,
05:31
but I just remember since I was 1415,
05:33
like mom, I wanna be on the radio.
05:34
I wanna be a DJ.
05:35
I've learned at least in my situation you could have all the
05:38
support in the world and your friends and families,
05:41
they, they could support you.
05:41
But if you don't believe,
05:43
if you don't believe in yourself,
05:44
it's not gonna happen.
05:44
All right, man,
05:45
