I mean honestly, this guys is slightly less talented than Paris Hilton and slightly more talented than Perez Hilton. Why is he every-fucking-where?

Waaay back in the day, on my Super Sweet Sixteen, Pitbull was always one of the rappers that the kids pretended they wanted to show up at their party. I always thought, "LOL, who is this clown?" But it payed off apparently.

And I also thought he was much older but he is only 31.

Really. Is that your criteria for quality, relative popularity?

I sit and wonder the same thing. All the Zumba bitches bang this dude's shit when they're dancing/exercising, and all those fucking Bud Light commercials that you can't avoid if you are watching almost any kind of sport.

Remember a few years back when Kevin Federline tried to get that Brazilian bass shit off the ground and people shot him down? Pitbull's shit is the same shit, and 95% of the people that listen to it have no fucking clue what the guy is even saying.

It's sad that wearing a suit and taking your sunglasses off and on in the dark and nodding at dancing chicks is considered talent these days.

I often wonder why companies like Coke, Pepsi, and Budweiser advertise. We're all aware of your products, I have a hard time imagining that the billions of dollars spend on ads actually has an equivalent or greater impact on profit.

Same thing with milk. Do we really need to see some celebrity schilling milk during the NCAA tournament.

Bitches just want to dance...that's all. Anything with a catchy beat and lyrics that don't fuck up the vibe is going to be popular. Durr

He makes music geared towards club environments, where people spend beaucoup bucks. So he's technically doing us a favor by stimulating the economy.

You people should listen to Pitbull more. You might realize that you can't, you won't, you never will stop the party.

he wanted to create a "billion dollar empire" by the end of 2015... a couple of years ago when a mag asked him if that was till his goal and was doable, he said definitely yes.

so, is he still getting there?

Latin America needed a hero....and one man was brave enough to answer the call. That man was Pitbull.

pittbull had talent at first but became so popular he doesn't need it anymore. kinda like how taylor swift switched over to pop.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2N7POlWaEE

working with lil jon was a game changer for him. it was exactly what miami needed at exactly the right time. mixing traditional house, ragaeton and mainstream hip hop in a city that already has one of the biggest latin, hip hop and house scenes in the world. take over the party capital with party music and after a few years it doesn't matter what you make you just show up and people like it.

there was no looking back from here

art doesn't work quite the same way. theres a lot of famous pieces in museums that i think are pieces of shit. art is in the eye of the beholder.


you don't look at the mona lisa today and say wow shes ugly this sucks but everyone from miami remembers where they were the first time they thought the dj was mixing calabria with gangsta rap and it was pitbull on the track with lil jon. that changed the world of party music
