Pit Who? Bull Where?

The whole world dances to ‘his’ music, his entry wasn’t what we call smooth and today every famous artist wants to collaborate with him. You know who I’m talking about. Yes, Armando. Armando Pérez. Who? >> Pitbull himself. The man behind ‘I know you want me’, ‘Dj got us falling in love tonight’ with Usher, ‘On the floor’ with J.Lo, ‘Give me everything’ with Ne-Yo, and so on.
But who is this man who knows to catch my ear, makes me tiptoe to the beat and makes club classics one after the other?
True, his flashy, funky beats make me move too. But how is it that this -former- relatively simple man is able to make the world dance? It’s not his looks, let us be honest: it is polite to say that he made a good choice always wearing his shades: no Pitbull, I don’t want you....
 Nor is it that he was born with the connections: Armando’s parents are Cuban immigrants, separated when he was young, he then got kicked out of his mother’s house at 16 and became a drug dealer… Maybe  it was just luck? Fact is that he has the talent to create infectious beats. I still have my doubts about the depth of this kind of music, guess that is a useless question.

To sum it up: Pit, I’ll never drink enough for you to take me home tonight, but I will dance with a lot of appreciation to your (let’s be honest) lousy-but-catchy tunes ànd, I will never ever look at your lyrics again, promise to my life baby.
Keep up them shades Pit
