Pitbull - Rebelution



I understand that sometimes with my open promise to review anything that comes into the box, sometimes a person may toss something in there just to make me listen to something they think will be terrible. Well, that's actually not the case with Pitbull, as follower Mithrandr thought this could be somewhat good upon his suggestion. I personally have never been a big fan of Pitbull's work, and can safely say I'd never have listened to a full album had it not been suggested. Some folks might want to call this rap, but I whole heartedly disagree. This a pop record, or at most bend a dance album. Interesting tidbit, Pitbull was born to a Cuban mix family, and he is a white, blue eyed and Cuban American. It's hard to have any street cred when you kind of pretend to be hispanic and then people learn you're white. Anyway, the long and short of it is, this is pretty bad. I mean, if you're at the club and you hear half the tracks on this album, you'll probably get up and move. But from a sitting at my desk and wanting to listen to tuneage standpoint, this would be nearly last on my list. I guess it could be good driving music too, but it's not really for me. I'll tell Mith and the rest of you who enjoy a good dance track to try it out, but don't expect gold.

  1. I Know You Want Me makes me want to cut my ears off. Worst song pretty much ever.
