Pitbull will be performing at the CMT Music Awards on Wednesday alongside Leona Lewis and Cassadee Pope!

Billboard exclusively made the announcement today, stating, “I’m thrilled to tell you that we have Pitbull performing with Leona Lewis and Cassadee Pope. They’re going to perform his new single, ‘Messin’ Around,’ which he recorded with Enrique Iglesias, and we’re having Leona ad Cassadee do the Enrique part. That’s a classic example of different worlds colliding that is unexpected, but when you see it, it fits. It works”.

The CMT Music Awards will air Wednesday, June 8th at 8/7c on the CMT Network.

“We have amazing people on it such as, man, Derulo’s on the album, obviously Enrique Iglesias, I have a record with– you know she’s been out of the scene for a while– but I’m looking forward to this record, it’s called, “Only Ones To Know (featuring Leona Lewis)”. We have another one with Steven Marley. I mean, we have a bunch of records right now,” said Pit when asked about, “Climate Change”.

In regards to a release date, Pitbull disclosed that the highly-anticipated album will no longer hit stores on June 3rd, as he publicized during an interview last month, but it is now slated for a July release to coincide with The Bad Man Tour.
