Pitbull recently did a narration video for game #2 of Miami Heat’s “White Hot Playoffs”.
While clips of the beloved 305 pan across the screen, Pitbull begins the video by saying, “It’s just different down here, the bottom, the magic city, Miami. Other fans can’t do it like we do it. Our nation is united by love of the city, and team.”
Watch the full video above!
And best of luck to the Miami Heat during the playoffs!
Pitbull made a guest appearance at Manny Medina’s annual tech conference, eMerge Americas, today at the Miami Beach Convention Center.

Pitbull sat down with Mark Hoffman (CNBC Chairman), Cesar Conde (Telemundo Chairman), and Melissa Lee (CNBC Anchor) to share his insights on business strategies and speak about entrepreneurship.

Pitbull’s newest single, “Messin’ Around,” which is his latest collaboration with Enrique Iglesias, earned Pop Radio’s most added honor. The single has been added by 80 Mediabase-monitored stations this week.
“Messin’ Around,” has been doing extremely well since its Friday release. So far, it has charted on iTunes in over 20 countries, streamed over 300,000 times on Spotify, hit over 1,000,000 views on YouTube, amassed nearly 800 radio spins in the first three days of release, made its way to Pop Radio’s Top 40, and #MessinAround trended worldwide for over four hours on April 8th, peaking at #5.
“Messin’ Around,” is Pitbull and Enrique Iglesias’ 11th collaboration, including past singles and remixes, and it is main-single from Pit’s 10th LP, “Climate Change” (out June 3rd).
The single, which includes a sample from REO Speedwagon’s 1980 hit, “Take it on the Run,” is an upbeat radio-friendly banger, that is guaranteed to make you get up and move. Take a listen above!

A huge thank you to the many people who made #EPIC48Hours truly epic, including every department here at SD LOCAL, our record label partners, and valued clients. Too many people to thank individually, but each was instrumental in pulling this off.”
