Episode Synopsis
This podcast contains discussions of sensitive topics...Listener discretion is strongly advised. While the stories you’ll hear are rooted in real events, not every detail is strictly historical—some moments are dramatized with creative license to bring the narrative to life. Please keep this in mind as you listen.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A young man rose from obscurity with melodies that lit up the world. His sound was luminous, his shows electric—yet behind the curtain, shadows followed close behind. Fame turned him into a product, a brand, an untouchable icon. But the truth was far more fragile: relentless pressure, sleepless nights, and a search for peace that always seemed out of reach. His story isn’t just about music—it’s about the cost of genius, the silence that success can bring, and a tragic ending no one saw coming. This is the beat that shook the world… and the darkness it left behind.Written by Jonny HartwellVoiced by Jonny HartwellMusic Credit: Reel World Audio.A iHeart Radio ProductionJonny’s Dead Air PodcastWritten, hosted, and produced by Jonny Hartwell.A production of iHeartRadio Pittsburgh.Thanks for listening—and for keeping the light on.
