Why on earth is Pitbull in almost every song on the radio? He's horrible! He lyrics are so unintelligent and at the level a 3rd grader would write on a poetry assignment.

Seriously, why have people made this man so popular?? He has got to be one of the worst mainstream artists to date!

Here are some shining examples of his amazing lyrics:

Mami got an ass like a donkey, with a monkey
Look like King Kong, welcome to the crib

WTF does that even mean? A woman with a nice ass and a monkey the size of king kong hanging from it? Or is she taking a king kong size shit? This is a similar piece by a good lyricist, Eminem:

Girl shake that ass like a donkey with Parkinson's
Make like Michael J. Fox is in your drawers

Two more amazing Pitbull lyrics

Yea right picture that with a kodak
And better yet, go to times square
Take a picture of me with a kodak

My life is a movie and you just Tivo


Every time I hear him say something my IQ lowers....

My favorite is when he called Alfred Hitchcock "Albert Hitchcock"


....unless I'm missing some sort of clever reference.

Haha holy shit, never noticed it being that bad.

Don't know why he got that popular suddenly, it's quite irritating.

Pitbull is riding the same wave the Flo-Rida made popular. Catchy ass club/dance songs that border on eletronica.
That being said hes WAY MORE listenable than Flo-Rida.
I don't really check for dude, but I don't mind hearing his music.

He gets good pop production and is relatively easy to listen to if you're not paying a great deal of attention to the lyrics.

It's not like Pitbull is the only artist guilty of this.

That seems to be what all popular hip-hop is doing lately, just sayin'.

I thought this was going to be another one of those Pitbull debates. How the dog is so dangerous and nothing necessarily to do with the owner.

Nah. Everyone is trying to figure out what kinda secret sauce Lil Wayne has going on. Either that or repeating the same Cocaine Rap bs over and over again.

I can't stand him, and living in Miami does not make it any easier.

Everytime I hear that Kodak lyric I feel some of my brain cells slowly dying.

Lil B - "I'm so wet that a pussy gets mad at me."

Young Jeezy - "I stayed in the game like John Madden, cuz I played in the game like John Madden."

CYNE - "Ladies with their legs wide, say goodbye to dildo...goodbye to dildo"

MF DOOM - "Got more cheese than Doritos, Cheetos and Fritos" (Fritos don't have cheese)

See? All rappers suck.

You're so right. These lines are fine examples of how hip-hop is stupid music.

90% of today's teens listen to (c)rap music. If you're apart of the 10% that still listens to real music, repost this.

But rap and hip-hop lyrics are usually so insightful and incisive on real-world issues! Pitbull should be ashamed for making music with stupid lyrics in this golden age of music.

Lets not pretend that MF DOOM hasn't spit some silly shit in his life.


I'm not saying that, but every single rapper/musician in general has done it. I'm just saying taking one line out of hundreds of songs is unfair!

pitbull sadly makes girls shake their asses. i put up with his music for ass
That's pretty much it. Pitbull's not the type of person to make music that needs to be "studied" indepth for a message: it's just fun time/club/dance music. /thread
