Armando Cristian Pérez, better known as Pitbull, was born in Miami on January 15, 1981, into a family of immigrants with roots on the island of Cuba. For this reason, Pitbull was taught English and Spanish from a very young age, reinforcing the latter with the poetry of José Martí and the songs of Celia Cruz. Cuban songs helped Pitbull develop his musical talent until he was 16, but his temptation to drugs caused his mother to kick him out of the house. The singer then left his home and moved to a foster home in Georgia, where he spent a few months before returning to Florida to complete his studies.
Florida is the city where he became a musician. And Pitbull's potential is clear, and producer Lil Jon, who gave him his first chance in 2003, knows how to recognize it from the beginning. But the producer never imagined that this young man would become a superstar a few years later.
At first he liked genres like hip hop, but then he specialized in reggaeton and has not stopped releasing albums since then, and currently, he has a dozen albums behind him.
Almost two decades later, the Latin singer has found international success through remixes of hit singles and has collaborated on songs with artists such as Shakira, Christina Aguilera, Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, Kesha and Jennifer López.
World concerts are also held in North and South America, Europe and the Far East. In 2009, the mayor of Miami gave him the keys to the city. Her because she represented all the values of Florida and became an example for a new generation. In this context, “Pitbull Day” is also noted, which commemorates the artist's birthday.
In 2016, Pitbull received a star on the Los Angeles Walk of Fame not only as a singer, but also for his educational work for young Latinos.Americans who have not yet found their way in life.Pitbull instantly took the music industry by storm. This is reflected in his incredible numbers: number 1 in 15 countries, 80 million singles sold, 6 million albums sold worldwide and more than 90 million followers on social networks.
