Pitbull - Rebelution (Review)

Monday, 31 August 2009 23:31 acllaim

Pitbull's "Rebelution" released today, bringing forth a fusion of dance and rap, along with a few collabs that are sure to make some females' panties drop (no offense to our female readers, but I'd bet you probably followed the instructions to "Toma" just as much as any other respectable, intelligent female).

When compared to his previous outings, Rebelution is a much different album. Rebelution is much lighter than the Boatlift, and WAY less political than El Mariel. Pitbul has placed himself into a dance (pop-ish more than dancehall-ish) and rap genre and seems to do it well. Tracks like Calle Ocho and Hotel Room Service serve as perfect examples of what Pitbull is all about, and while there may not be a monster like "Toma" on the CD, it it definitely a solid album, conceding the fact that some long-time Pitbull listeners might feel betrayed, being as Pitbull has progressively taken steps away from who he was in El Mariel. Pitbull still shows he has consciousness, and does a good job on "Daddy's Little Girl".

Pitbull's Rebelution is a decent album; I recommend you check out his album below on Myspace and if you like it, by all means go out and support Pitbull. Who knows? If he doesn't sell enough, we might be forced to ship his ass back to Cuba.
