THE BAD MAN, THE THICKE AND THE PERRY: BAD MAN VIDEO REVIEW


Directed by a 'Pitbull video favourite ' David Rousseau, the video opens with a mix of shots of rehearsals in LA with The Most Bad Ones counting down moves and going through choreography. To Pitbull, Robin Thicke, Joe Perry and Travis Barker pulling up to join them.

But not before grabbing a shot of the four sitting by the steps on the stage as the rock star photographer himself, Greg Watermann took.

The video flips from shots of performance rehearsals, LA streets, street art to dancing on water in the famous Bellagio Hotel fountain where like true rock stars they throw the guitars in the water. Cascading the theme on from their commercial for the NBA last year and joined by The Most Bad Ones at the famous Las Vegas spot. Don’t stop the party and let it roll onto a private jet with Robin Thicke, Joe Perry and Travis Barker and The Most Bad Ones in the air.

At forty-five thousand feet you think Pit cares about the weather? Maybe in another song and maybe just a little. Everyday above ground is a great day as Mr Worldwide may say and what better way to party than in the air where Pitbull finally getting his hands on a real guitar in the air after so much practice air guitaring with Leo Brooks at concerts. Even Michelle Burgoss Colon has a go at lip synching in the background "Come and get it girl" with a cup no doubt and Voli in hand? While the girls get wild partying it's left to the fellas for some pampering for a do-it-yourself manicure like Joe Perry with a knife. Not long after to arrive at their destination Premier Lo Nuestro in Miami -  assuming what the rehearsals earlier were for!

A varied video than the norm with music faded put to capture dialogue. A behind the scenes 'real' feel to it. Pitbull has a playbook with no rules to it and neither does this video and it works. Not bad for a little Miami boy hey chico!

OPTIONS VIDEO: MAKING & SHOWING A LOT OF HISTORY!


Colourful sign post introduces Pitbull and Stephen Marley's video to Options set in Kingston, Jamaica by Gil Green.


A different start to the usual Pitbull videos (with the exception of FUN also directed by Gil Green) with a longer, enjoyable banter between Stephen and Pitbull as they enjoy a game of Ludo outdoors before they make history later that evening and with Pitbull feeling right as home as a beautiful girl in shredded denim shorts and bright orange bright top walks past straight into the record-stroke-cafe directly behind him.

Distracted, Pitbull follows the beauty (and some more) in the shop to check out his 'options' as Marley heads for the studio - Looks like iconic Tuff Gong Studios - before joining Stephen in the studio in a casual open shirt vest on show (too hot for a suit there!)

Back with the girl and a Baddie or so, Pitbull rides off on a moped stopping briefly for some fresh coconut, he loves the kids and stops for a game of footy and school girls singing on the fence while The Most Bad Ones sex it up more between shots.

Not tearing up the history in the wrong way for a girl but more on show with pride. From the statue of the legendary Bob Marley in the Bob Marley Museum to other shots with Pitbull, Stephen along with more of the legendary family Damian (JR Gong) Marley and Julian R Marley within the museum.

Nightfalls, stick a brown jacket on Pitbull, grab the girl and party with the crowd. But not without the
Voli 305 Vodka on the rocks perhaps just as the bottles are sat on the rocks. Blink and you'll miss it along with the Party Patch.

Nice, chilled and enjoyable mini shots of the Bob Marley Museum.

An end still shot. Mr Worldwide grateful as always, stops with a shot as simply 'Thank you to the Marleys and Jamaica' by the iconic Bob Marley statue one hand on guitar and other in the air at the museum. At the end of all that I can say what a really cool video capturing a lot of Marley History and bringing it on screen to share with the globe, especially the studios, statue and museum.

AHOY PITBULL! FREEDOM VIDEO







If you were in two minds about joining the Pitbull Cruise next year on the Norwegian Pearl Cruise Liner, chances are you would have made up your mind to jump on board and go and have a good time after watching Pitbull's new Freedom video.




Sailing on a long-loyal ship steering through Pitbull's career since the release of his very first album - and I could be speaking for quite a few similar passengers on the journey who are aware of Pitbull history, what made me really smile is watching the kids sitting on the rocks by the ocean at the beginning comparing trainers and talking how kids do. A mini-Pitbull in his long shorts and white vest being made fun of in jest by his friends responds "One day Lil' Chico gonna be big. Imma be kicking out one of those big boats one day, you'll see!" As he points to the Norwegian Escape Cruise Ship pulling out of the Port of Miami.



In the next shot, we could say fast forward to today and we see Pitbull on the deck of the Norwegian Cruise Liner taking his Freedom and being free doing what he wants and having a good time!

The beautiful Most Bad Ones and other great ladies look stunning flying flags from USA, Cuba, Brazil, Spain, China, Australia, Bahamas (where the Pitbull Cruise 2017 will be heading) 

I'm going to leave the proudest one with a shout out to Kristin for representing my country-the Union Jack flag of the UK (now just steer the boat towards us Captain Worldwide). Not only did the lovely ladies swish away on top of the deck waving the big flags in the wind but they had the bikinis to match.

As well as the obvious Norwegian Cruise Liner written in bold along with it's official logo, the video continues with more subtle and subliminal product placement and highlights how the features and facilities on board the cruise liner can be enjoyed. From the casino, dance floors to pools and spa...or go and have a good time like the flirtatious fun going on elsewhere between the mami who eventually puts her room key in the gentleman's suit pocket. (anyone seem the old Carry On Cruising show in the UK? This sounds like the classier version)

From port to starboard, the video captures that refreshing carefree and fun feeling with it's vibrant colours a 'commercial-video' video for the Norwegian Cruise Line.

Every day on the ocean is a good day too, hey Pitbull! We can get on board by joining Mr Worldwide and The Most Bad Ones on the 'After Dark Party' Pitbull Cruise. Don't forget your Party Patch!

ONCE UPON A TIME..THE PITBULL, THE LYON & TIGER CUB - NO DOUBT ABOUT IT VIDEO


After Pit made his premiere on Empire last night it was time to let Jamal (Jussie Smollett) know where the after party at, texting 'private party at the Empire Estates- Dale Pit.' As the iron gates open, it’s evident that Pitbull and The Most Bad Ones had already got the party well on the way!


Pink, gold and Buddha themed elegant rooms with possibly some old school velvet wall paper, taking the party poolside with motorbikes. Although it may be a ‘Lyon’ estate a tiger cub managed sneak in and mix it up a little to make it two big cats and a Pitbull.

Directed by Gil Green who also directed Fun, the video sees ample champagne flutes and encourages taking a lot of shots (with somebody) and a few costume changes from Pitbull from crisp corporate attire looking the business to carefree casual suits you don’t mind getting wet! Jussie Smollett looked just as smouldering in his purple suit. Suited to Empire Royalty.



The gorgeous Most Bad Ones never a metre away from Mr Worldwide partying away from the hallway to the lobby. Attaching themselves to either the walls or Pitbull. Not enough water in the pool to put out the fire these gorgeous, talented ladies started!


Pitbull always says to feel and enjoy the moment. Momentarily entertaining some party goers by taking a selfie with him and then hitting them with “ In this party ain’t no social media no camera phones..” Before he throws their phone into the pool – what happens at the Empire Estates, stays at the Empire Estates!

It’s not the first time we’ve seen Pitbull’s Olympic water sport skills. Don’t Stop The Party video saw Pit doing water bombs into the ocean. No Doubt About it we see Pitbull’s best acrobatic back flip dive yet! Pitbull does his own stunts dontcha know!

PIENSAS PREMIERE IN TIMES SQUARE

Pitbull is able to stop the traffic anywhere in the world but last night as Piensas featuring his very own Mr 305 Inc’s Gente De Zona video made its premiere on the Sony Digital Billboard it may have been Times Square, New York at 7pm that came to a standstill.

But the treats didn’t stop there. Fans were encouraged to get down to Times Square to watch the video go out but perhaps not to ‘piensas’ too long about it otherwise they would miss out the free merchandise handed out by Mr 305 Inc.

Piensas, the first single released from Pitbull’s upcoming Spanish album Dale is set it in 1959 Havana and sees Pitbull, Gente De Zona and The Most Bad Ones in a club ringing in the New Year.

Directed by a personal favourite for Pitbull music videos, David Rousseau, the video is sleek, classy and captures the sexy essence and spirit of partying in Habana in that era.

While Pitbull and Gente De Zona are sing away to us in what seems like a courtyard within the club, The Most Bad Ones don their adaptation of hot Cuban dancers outfits with headpieces, feathers and cheek on show before a quick change to hit a private table and bring in the New Year in style with Pitbull’s Voli Black.

Strategic product placement of Voli Black sees the distinctive vodka flowing prominently throughout the video and demonstrating just how to enjoy the drink and “Stay Sexy” as the liquor, whether it be at the table, bar or waving the exquisite bottle in the air.


It looked like something serious may have been about to go down near the end but then again what was it that Pitbull said with a friendly but firm hand on the shoulder to the gentleman on the way out of the club. A friendly warning or “You better get back in there the Voli is great, dale!”

PIT-RIQUE LET YOU BE THEIR LOVER ( VIDEO)


Enrique Iglesias featuring Pitbull Let Me Be Your Lover video is released today and just in time for Valentines day.

Directed by Alejandro Perez, the video features a puppet Thunderbird-esque style (but with more elasticity and movement) Pitbull & Enrique creeping out from behind plant pots and just the right height to check out legs that go up forever and more Pit style mischief of looking up between these giant legs with some creeping into the ladies bathrooms for some more shocks!

Onto toy stores and Miami beach and getting their toy size ladies into a toy car and zooming around the mall between unassuming shoppers and escaping to the real roads causing havoc.
The rebels that they are going the wrong way up the street before bumping into a real Pitbull with sunglasses. After shakin' it down the red carpet still in miniature form the guys grow before our eyes and make a run to take a shot of some potion with magical powers to bring them back to fun-size to get up to more trouble and fun one can only guess. So THAT'S how they got that small!

TIME OF OUR LIVES VIDEO IS HERE!

When life gives you lemons crack open the Voli and throw a 'Rent Party'  Empty the fish bowl and make an ad-hoc 'Rent Party Donation Box' for guests to part with their dollars upon arrival!

Pitbull loves a little throw back. The Time Of Our Lives video is set in 1999 on the eve of ringing in the millennium and in the style of the good old days of the old school house parties of the 90's. Dancing, good times, good company, Pitbull brings his own cup and cheekily tells us to be quiet as he takes some dollars out of the donation box on the way in before getting stuck right into the middle of the crowd. With added streamers, balloons, indoor skateboarding, karaoke, who's got the biggest jiggling ass competition to sparklers for those hanging outside.

The video also features Young Breed, Veronica Vega and keep those eyes peeled and spot DJ Laz in the crowd.

It's been a while since we've seen Pit in a cap, jacket and rocking a Miami Heat vest (anyone else get a flashback moment of the Culo video and Cuban flag vest?) street style swagger yet at the same time feels like it was just yesterday and it all comes flooding back in a shot.

Having graduated with an honorary degree this year, it only seems fit with Pit looking very cool in a University of Miami Hurricane's jacket for this throwback video directed by Gil Green. We still get the best of both and are spoiled with those sexy black tux shots of Armando Bond and Ne-Yo in a suit.

A feel good 'escape' video with an old school vibe running a parallel story of a family struggling to pay the bills, that is until grandma (who can still bust some moves) suggests a rent party! The video will have us dancing away and smiling no matter what. For us fans especially, knowing Pitbull's struggle in the early years and just how far he has come brings that feeling of a warm glow within. 

Care free, throw caution to the wind feel and with the video being themed around and released just in time for New Year's Eve, there's a message in it for all. What I take away from it is that life's too short, let's just do what we enjoy and have the Time Of Our Lives! Click on the donation box in the photo to watch the video.

CELEBRATE! THE OFFICIAL VIDEO IS HERE!


The official video to Pitbull's 'Celebrate' featured in the upcoming movie The Penguins of Madagascar has arrived.

The mischievous Penguins may well have a new addition to their little gang in this cute and fun video. The newest member is known as Pitbull and comes with in his own black 'n' white signature 'penguin' suit. Sure Pitbull will fit in well with his fun and mischievous side!

The video directed my personal favourite Pitbull music video director David Rousseau, features Pitbull getting off a jet ( bringing his own cup, of course!) and very much so where "every day above ground is a good day-so I celebrate!" Although those lyrics are part of another hit single called Do It, it's a great reflection of Mr Worldwide in this particular video and taking a trip around the globe with Pitbull and shots of various iconic places around the world.

Pitbull singing in the studio is something we haven't seen in a video in a very long time and even more entertaining with those cheeky and playful penguins messing around with the sound equipment and mixers in the studio. We also get a short glimpse of  an animated Pit. Then off to a concert where the Penguins are on double duty as backing singers and 'Mini Penguin Agents' . In between behaving as cannon balls shooting out the latest shoppitbull.com t-shirt to one lucky girl in the crowd (click on the link below to get your one!)

Cool, fun and entertaining for all ages (not a boob or bum in sight!) although if there is one thing Pitbull could learn from the penguins I would say how about a crowd surf at your next show Pit, straight into the mosh 'Pit'!

The penguins 'heart' Pit as do we in this enjoyable video as we sing along to sample chorus of the Rare Earth song from the 1970's  'I Just Wanna Celebrate' taking us back in time and around the world again.

THE PLAYBOY FIREBALL

Playboy partnership, Playboy mansion and now the international Playboy continues the bunny theme and gets a little 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit' on us in the new Fireball video released today on Vevo.

Set in what looks like an exclusive club possibly named Calientes, the video is packed with old fashioned black and white sophistication and glamour with smouldering outfits costumed by Angela Aaron. We have sexy dancing with a touch of Cuba, Brazil and going back in time perhaps even a glimpse of the 20's Charleston making it's way onto the dance floor. In line with the flaming theme of it's title, we also have some breathtaking fire breathing (don't try that at home kids!)

As the sexy leading lady Alejandra Espinoza looking much like Jessica Rabbit in a printed red thigh slit, sweetheart cut dress makes appearance, the video gets a little comical with guys in the bar eyes popping out and tongues to the floor in an animated cartoon manner. By this time we're all watching in colour all round yet the bottle of Pitbull's Voli still remains black! It wouldn't be a Pitbull video after all without plugging one of his brands with some clever 'product placement' shots here and there of the latest Voli. 

As the video continues, the seductress in red whispers in Mr Worldwide's little ear and dares to take his drink as she walks away with it. Closely flowed by Pitbull to get that drink back ( who are we kidding, to clearly follow to get up to no good!)

John Ryan works his magic on a guitar as he belts out the chorus while the gorgeous Most Bad Ones set the dance floor alight. The video also features Bart Baker, Brittany Furlan and Jenna Marbles. 

Directed by David Rousseau, a personal favourite music video maverick, I had a hunch the video was going to be great and pushed to another level before it was publicly seen by the genius that is Mr 'Creative Seen' 

Sexy, sophisticated and smoking HOT a MUST watch. Click on the bottle of Voli to see the full video.

JERROD NIEMANN Feat. PITBULL - DRINK TO THAT ALL NIGHT ( REMIX)

Rap meets Country yet again in this alluring monochrome style video directed by Eric Welch for Broken Poet Productions. The video premiered on Vevo today by kicking off with Pitbull and Jerrod in black suits against white.

You either drink to something or you don’t, similarly many things are either black or white with no grey matter in between. Pick a side and stick to it! But trust Pitbull to mix it up and add his own flair by throwing in a deep purple shirt (we like!)

The video features skilled dancers doing their thing with hula hoops, gambling chips, trucks, an American footballer, DJ with his turntables to what appears to be martini glass style pyramids with drinks flowing and cocktail shakers. Not forgetting the all white pool table.

The video soon makes an impressive easy on the eye transition with Pitbull  switching to contrasting white against black backgrounds all round– have to watch it to get it.

Smooth!

WE ARE ONE - OFFICIAL WORLD CUP 2014 VIDEO

There are no 'off side' whistles blown, red card or penalties issued for the official World Cup Song We Are One Video. It's a beautiful hit video for ‘the beautiful game'

The video captures the flavour of the host country Brazil. From capoeira, samba dancers, the Cristo Redentor statue, to the kids having a kick about in the streets aspiring to be the next Pelé.

Being the official song of the World Cup, the video naturally features a lot of football shots of games in the past, as well as past heroes and legends to current day players from Rooney to Ronaldo. Mexican waves in the crowd and back on the street where some of other kid is kicking about a giant inflatable football around the beginning of the video and the poor kid is still making his way to somewhere kicking it through some concrete developed area by the end of it to.

Pitbull, JLO and Claudia Leitte get us all fired up on our feet to dance whatever we may be doing, as they perform on a platform at various stages. Surrounded by dancers, crowds and musicians playing classic samba instruments from tamborims to malacacheta and timba drums.

Mr Worldwide looking crisp as ever in a white suit also makes an appearance elsewhere in the video in a yellow shirt and blue blazer, acknowledging the colours of the host nation. Jenny- where did you get that aztec-like patterned skirt from(I want one!). Claudia, gorgeous in the palm tree design fitted dress.

On the outside I break out in goosebumps and on the inside filled up with pride – proud of Pit. Lil'Chico rapping freestyle in street battles in Miami with his cute corn rows to being under the brightest spotlight of the globe's biggest platform this year. Congratulations Pitbull.

Watch the vibrant video and experience a great vibe oozing that feeling of unity and togetherness as you get caught in the spirit of Brazil and football

Flags up to the sky! Mr Worldwide unites the globe with his music and now binds us even tighter this year.

PITBULL & BECKY G - CAN'T GET ENOUGH VIDEO

It's no wonder Becky G 'Can't Get Enough' - Pitbull is very present on the video of this great upbeat song.

Signed to Dr Luke, another genius that is no stranger to Pitbull fans, rising teen star Becky G releases the video to Can't Get Enough on Vevo.

Although Pitbull has that power to pull off many daring suit colours and combinations, standing amongst anything floral or related greenery as a background is not something I would have ever envisioned. However, it seems 'appropriate' for the teen video (please don't wear a floral suit though Pit, -ever!) The video is quite clean cut and no butt or cleavage in your face, which is unusual for Mr Worldwide videos. But we understand ‘worldwide’ also means 'genre-wide' in Pitbull language. Reaching and mindful of certain audiences.

Happy, enjoyable, upbeat, clean yet still got that added 'fuego fuego!' element. Becky G's style and distinctive vocals are catchy.  Not come across a female rapper that gives off a 'vibe' hovering around similar to Pitbull, I sense a little glimpse of that in a young Becky G but in an innocent context yet with the same attitude and play with the camera and in parts of the verses. Got a feeling that ‘Becky to the G’ music is one to watch and going to be even bigger..

WILD WILD LOVE VIDEO - Business As Usual !

The video for Wild Wild Wild Love by the new International playboy Pitbull with G.R.L is released today. Directed by David Rousseau, the video maverick has once again pulled 'the rabbit out of the hat' so to speak!

Pitbull has the Key To Miami and probably a set of keys to the Playboy Mansion where the video is predominantly set. It's bunny hopping but not so mad. Any video set at Hugh Heff's crib as many in the past, it's half expected that it's going to be fast 'n' filthy! Alas, this is certainly not the case, this is Pitbull and even though you get the ass, it's still done with a lot more class.

Although you have Playboy bunnies and the G.R.L girls (couldn't really be certified as a Pitbull video without women really could It now?), the video is really about business with the added fun element- what Pitbull is about.


The video begins with the question being posed to Mr Worldwide who is always wheelin' and dealin' as to whether he has a deal with the ladies and soon moves onto Pit in the iconic hallway of the Mansion with the staircase and Playmates on either side.

On it goes with business being conducted over the long table with laptops, clipboards, overhead projectors and Pitbull being impressed by figures presented to him. Business is about strategy and Pitbull is not one to get caught out by a check-mate move in a game of chess nor is Mr Worldwide one to be fazed or distracted by one of the ladies flirting and hair flicking beside him into being cornered into a deal. Pit invites the G.R.L ladies from the Playboy to the Vizcaya Mansion to show them how they do business in Miami where a deal is sealed with a kiss on the hand and Voli.

Pitbull looks fresh and very crisp in his suit and bow tie and the screen shots of Pitbull in the Vizcaya Mansion outdoors with the sun illuminating his face is a particular favourite of mine. Closely followed by the scene of Pit standing in the hallway of the Playboy Mansion between the staircase and Playmates and outside between the giant stone lion heads.

Ladies of G.R.L were also very stylish and classy, outfits and dance moves together smooth and sexy. G.R.L are definitely one to watch out for.

Modern day Hugh Heff er yes
Playboy to the death er yes
Pitbull been in suit around the globe
Wanted to see you in a Heff silk robe!

Mmm Mmm Yeah...Yeah?


Mmm mmm yea yea when I saw these boys looking so stylish I'm like they look so good but they bad, bad!

Mmm Mmm Yea Yea by Austin Mahone with Pitbull 
made its debut on VEVO today.


Set in a cream, white and grey tiled room illuminated by soft pinks, white, purples and blues. As a video junkie, Jamiroquai's famous video Virtual Insanity with moving furniture also sprung to the forefront my mind. Yet with Gil Green's version being more colourful, engaging and visually pleasing. (Both the set and artists!)

Giant speakers moving back and forth, girls riding on speakers, sofa's wondering around and multiple jacket changes by Ausin Mahone who busts out in a few Usher/Jacko like moves.

Pitbull in more ways than one showing the young 'un just how its done in a more relaxed leather look but looking just as hot as always in his signature aviators. Can't imagine that the moving floor could have been too challenging to work with on set for Pit, being not only a fast talker but also a fast walker by the norm!

Austin M and Pit keep doing your thang!

Do we like it? Yeaa Yeaah!

IT’S ALL FREAKin’ GOING ON!


‘Dem Miami Boyz’ are FREAKy and you know it!  I’m A Freak video, directed by Colin Tilley is finally here!

The scene is party central which is possibly at Enrique’s crib but it wouldn’t be a party without the Master of All Parties, Mr Don’t Stop The Party, Mr The Party Ain’t Over - Mr Worldwide himself! As Pitbull may well say "Let's have some fun" and that is what this video is all about…the naughty kind of fun!

Full of scantily clad women (no surprise!) frolicking around in lingerie to swimwear, Pitbull most definitely gets the girls in their bras and thongs twerking like Miley! From being dressed in a giant teddy bear, to big belly flops and licking cream off navels in a mass feeding frenzy the video has all contexts of freakism.

Nowhere in the house is a party free zone not even in the bathroom where a tattooed guy is trying to find maybe a bit of quiet so he can make a phone call but is joined by a girl in her bikini and also wearing a few dollar bills!


Pitbull is like the Energizer Bunny and can go on and on but it seems Enrique may need a breather and gets one of his female companions to get on all fours so he can use her back and booty as a resting table ( yes have a little sniff and lick on the way too Enrique)

Both Pitbull and Enrique’s sense of good humour and fun shines through in the video along with their love of indulgence in sensual pleasures. I want to say exactly it how it is but can’t do that here so I will do my best to explain it another way. Did anyone else spot the flash illusion-shot of  what can carefully be described as a girl on girl speed-boating one kind of lips to another - funky camera work and direction!

Pitbull- loving the Navy and brown jacket combo

Wild, orgy, booze-a-thon, racy, sexy, fun, crazy – It’s all FREAKIN'’ going on- when’s the next  party fellas! By the way, Khloe Kardashian if you’ve lost Henry it looks like he’s at this party and made an appearance at the beginning of the video too!

GOING DOWN LIKE TIMBER?


It's all going down but is it all going on? Grab your harmonicas or just your partner and swing them round and round! The video to Timber has arrived.  Fans experienced a quadruple dose of Pitbull in a short timescale. Not only did we have Pitbull hosting the American Music Awards, a debut performance of Timber with Kesha on the show, we also had the premiere of the official Timber video straight after their performance on Facebook THEN the morning after we have the release of Pitbull's newest album Meltdown. THAT is some seriously sexy in-your-face marketing. Genius. Pitbull and Timber have now fully invaded. A sign to the Country music world that Pitbull has now arrived there too.

When Kesha kicks off the video by swinging open the doors of the Longhorn Saloon, you know it's going to be fun inside! Love it when we see Pitbull from behind (who doesn't?) as he walks into the saloon and upon arrival does the little squat and right foot scraping thing in Country/Western style. Easily missed in the distance so keep your eyes peeled!

Hot cowgirl dancers in hats, boots, tight denim shorts and with 'It's going down' across their black vests performed a flirtatious mix of Country line-dancing and possibly some kind of Texas two step as the jukebox labelled Timber blared out the hit. While Kesha and Pitbull do their thing somewhere inside and outside the bar at various locations. 

The Country and old West themed video sees a few other random combinations. Along with the cowgirls, horses, farm animals and saloons we also get ocean and sharks. 

There are endearing shots of Pitbull on a boat playing with sharks, however, Pitbull did not seem to be apprehensive. Must be the years of experience in dealing with such types in the business world! 

From water bombing to diving into the bottom of the ocean (to see if there's any Voli on a sunken boat wreck?) to frolicking in and under the sea playfully. All of this in a wet suit but not of the conventional type, but in HIS suit.

Inside the saloon Pitbull pulls off the Country look accessorised in a cowboy hat. The Lil'Chico looks like he is having a lot of fun in his new head gear. Outside of the saloon where would we be without Pitbull back in a suit. Known for his striking suit colour combinations, today we have pink on pink then blue on white. Pitbull can wear a bin bag for all I care and still make 'sexy' work.

Of course a Pitbull video would not be a Pitbull video without Mr WW frolicking somewhere with at least one mamita and so he does, on a beach. (Cue flashbacks of Rain On Me video).

The answer to the question is yes. It is all going on. With Pitbull getting wet in his suit, messing around in the sea, diving, playing with sharks and not to mention the cowboy hat, it is refreshing to see Pitbull engaging in a different 'style' of activities in this particular video to the norm. A fun, upbeat, Country and Western themed video with other things going on around it. Look out for the stunning and talented Dirty Southaners Country music artist Stephanie Heymann at the back end of the video too!  One more shot of Voli, another round, end of the night it's going down and as the harmonica continues to play in your head you'll be tapping your feet in no time. Country dancing even if you didn't know how to at the beginning of the video.

Just one question. Did the pig escape the farm to swim in the ocean?  

Dale YEEEEE-HAW!

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT VIDEO







As featured on Planetpit.com

I can't believe it, there's ass everywhere! The boys from Miami linked up once again to promote and fly the flag loud and proud for the ladies with extra junk in their trunk. JLO and Nikki should be proud of you Gents!

The song is itself is very infectious and complimented even further by a cracking video set in an animated Miami. Cracking and screenfuls of (butt) cracks to be precise with many of them cleverly blended into the landscape. This eye catching, fun and cheeky video directed by Geremy and George Legs also reminds and makes me think of a hotter and modern version of Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-A-Lot, especially at the beginning.

We all know the Lil' chico was Lil' but this time he was completely dwarfed by the size of the butt he was dancing on, yet seemed to be enjoying it very much so. Pitbull wears what appears to be black leather gloves for some reason -to get a good grip perhaps? We all know it would not be a Pitbull song without Mr Worldwide injecting his sense of humour that we love so much with lyrics like "Call me Michael Jackson 'cos I like to play with the monkey." Pitbull seemed quite content and in his element! Giant butts, a Flo-Spider butt, even an ice-cream butt with Flo calling himself Robin as he Baskin' himself in load of ass. Shaking butts, black butts, white butts.

Very cheeky, a little naughty but all in good taste. Even some of the alligators escaped from the Everglades to drop by and see what all the fuss was about ....Bubble-yum-bum, Baram, bum, baram

FEEL THIS MOMENT VIDEO….YEEEOOOW!


As featured on Planetpit.com 18th March 2013


As long as Pit got his suit, shades and red tie, looking so handsome my oh my, he can certainly show his fellow rappers a few thaaangs! What a feel good video, hey folks? Black, white with a tinge of brown sees Pitbull working his own twist of the monochrome look, which is popular this season. Going in line with the lyrics as we ‘seen him with his red tie, tied up’ his neckwear is also something that stands out distinctively throughout the video.
Enjoy the journey as Pitbull takes you on a whistle stop tour of some of his concerts ranging from India to Madrid where you can feel the buzz, energy and ‘lift’ from the other side of the screen as he performs before screaming crowds of fans. You also get to see some of the behind the scenes images and get a feel for the climax building up before Pitbull reaches the stage. Hanging out with his team, a quick shot of him writing a song, whilst also showing us the big equipment containers that are required for the gig. By the way how many microphones were there piled up right at the beginning Pit?
There is a part of the video that has managed to etch itself into my memory and one that makes me glow inside and just smile, that is the moment where Pitbull is on a jet and it’s as if you’re sitting behind him on the plane and he’s looking out of the window to the left and gives a little laugh and smile.
Pitbull is also then caught under the legal act of Don’t Stop The Party as he walks casually down stairs straight out of a jet with what I can only guess is a glass of Voli taking the party to the outside too!
Try not to blink or stick your eyelids up to your eyebrows so you can’t (I’m joking, don’t try this at home kids!) and you may just catch one of my favourite images of Pitbull creating an ad-hoc studio in a hotel room and recording a song with the mattress up against the wall and another where he is recording with his headphones and laptop. PITBULL I REALLY REALLY REALLY would LOVE to watch you record and mix with your laptop and watch the master at work please. To see the magic of your lyrics and beats unfold. I get you, I get your lyrics, I get your music and it’s one of my dreams and things to do on my list before I hit the next milestone age! …. I’ll be quiet as a mouse I promise! I just wanna feel THAT moment.  I think ‘you’re a genius, I mean brilliant!’
The Feel This Moment video is directed by another genius called David Rousseau who also directed Back In Time and Don’t Stop The Party to name a few, (that’s another gentleman whose mind I would like to get into and explore the creativity that goes on behind the scenes of his thought process!). True to the sample of the song Take On Me, David Rousseau takes parts of the video back to the 80’s in true AHA sketch-like style of the video of the original song. And of course, capturing the red tie to the eye so very appropriately in line with lyrics.
And as for Christina? Christina you are responsible for making some of us become a little deluded into thinking that we can sing as amazing as you at the top of our lungs I JUST WANNA FEEL THIS MOMENT, WhOOooOHoH!…each time we see the video, think about or hear the song! Our favourite genie in a bottle Christina Aguilera looks smoking hot with big blonde hair and dressed in a black leather jacket, stylishly zipped. Christina belts out the all the note’s as they should be with her powerful trademark vocals. Christina, we’ve missed you! Welcome back!
The video gives you a still, warm, happy, pink fuzzy feel inside as you get enticed into creating and feeling the moment for yourself whilst being captured and captivated by the song and visuals yet at the same time out of nowhere you also get that burst of energy that makes your body want to dance! How’s that for a versatile mix!
I can’t help but sense that both in the video and song there might be an element of Pitbull himself feeling the moment of when he performs, the travels, and perhaps a moment of private reflection where he is possibly enjoying and appreciative of his achievements from all the hard work. Also of the love and support received from his friends, family, the fans that stand in front of him cheering him on and of course proudly of Team Pitbull as he sings  “I break down companies with all my peeps” And really stops to take all the emotions in while he is on the stage performing away.
“Let’s stop time and enjoy this moment” Pitbull reminds us how to see the future but also not get so caught up in it that you don’t live for the moment and let things pass you by. That life is precious and to enjoy those moments that are life itself ‘but until the gates are open.’  Make sense don’t it? As Pitbull once said “When I say 'Feel this Moment' it is basically, feel life, don't live life for a moment, live life for life, that is your moment”
Pitbull have you ever heard of the Ready Brek Kid in the cereal commercials from the 80/90's? Because each time I watch this video or listen to the song I feel like I'm starting to light up and glow just like him because it feels so good inside.
FEEL THIS MOMENT ? Yes I’m feeling it!
Daleeee YeeeeOW!
