Today, we’re hopping on the Maná hate-train for a couple stops, diving into the most popular arguments from critics and rock fans who claim the band isn’t “rock enough,” whatever that means. But love them or hate them, there’s one thing no one can deny: Maná left an indelible mark on Spanish-speaking music. Sure, they might not melt faces with power chords or spark satanic panic, but through their journey we learned that a group of young people can still change the world. Lilliana Vazquez and Joseph Carrillo are the hosts of Becoming An Icon with production support by Nick Milanes, Santiago Sierra, Rodrigo Crespo, Evelyn Uribe and Edgar Esteban of Sonoro Media in partnership with iHeart Radio's My Cultura Podcast network.
