He’s a businessman, a musician, a marketing machine and a world-wide sensation. Armando Christian Perez aka Pitbull has taken the world by storm not just with his high energy live performances, but with his countless product endorsements and business partnerships. So, what drives a successful global recording artist to this level? For Armando Christian Perez, it’s a remarkable self-awareness of life at the top of the charts; a byproduct of the tenacity that took him from street hustler to multicultural, multimedia icon. In CNBC‘s Pitbull: Fame and Fortune, CNBC Chief International Correspondent Michelle Caruso-Cabrera profiles Pitbull who is rewriting the blueprint for business success in entertainment. For millions of millennial first generation U.S. born Latinos and anyone else smart enough to listen, the messages are clear – work harder than the rest, always be reinventing, defend your success and learn from your failures.
From Miami to Las Vegas to New York, Caruso-Cabrera sits down with Pitbull to get insight into the man who is rewriting the blueprint for business success in entertainment telling CNBC the music industry is “90% business, 10% talent” – a lesson he takes with him into other business ventures including Voli Vodka, Miami Grills and even his own fragrance. The Miami native has also become the face of the Latin community – an area some of the largest companies in the world are targeting – scoring endorsement deals with Bud Light, Dr. Pepper and Playboy. He was recently named the Most Influential Latino of 2015 by People en Español and the “godfather” of NorweigianCruise Line’s newest cruise ship, TheNorwegian Escape.
CNBC speaks with the first-generation Cuban-American about politics, including recent comments made by Donald Trump regarding the Latino population, which he says were “very offensive and disrespectful to our culture,” as well as his support of the re-establishment of diplomatic relations with Cuba and his hopes of one day returning to the country to perform.
During the hour, Caruso-Cabrera also gets the former street hustler’s take on business leaders he admires and the advice he has received, his plan to transform Miami into the next Silicon Valley, as well as what stocks he is invested in.
As for what’s next, Pitbull shows no signs of slowing down telling CNBC, “I love the work, I love the fight, I love the hustle.”
Last night Pitbull guest starred on FOX’s hit series, Empire on their latest episode, Fires of Heaven.
In case you missed it, here’s a run-through of what happened:
Lucious Lyon (Terrence Howard) threw a huge party… for himself. During the party, he has Jamal Lyon (Jussie Smollett) and Pitbull perform their hit, No Doubt About It. During Pit and Jamal’s amazing performance, all the lights turn off and Cookie (Taraji P Henson) walks on stage and welcomes everyone to her “Welcome to the World” party. She then has Hakeem Lyon (Yazz the Greatest) perform his song with Timbaland. Hakeem’s performance was so great that it catches the eye of Pitbull. He then talks to Cookie very quickly about his own New Year’s Eve show down in Miami… maybe a hint that the Empire cast will perform at Pitbull’s New Year’s Revolution?
In an exclusive scene of Fires of Heaven that aired during FOX‘s show Rosewood, Pitbull sat down with Lucious to talk about partnership. Lucious brought up the idea of a streaming service an Pit was immediately in! And once again Pit brought up his New Year’s Eve show on FOX, asking if he could get an “Empire stage” on Pitbull’s NewYear’s Revolution.
