Pitbull will receive Walk Of Fame star on Hollywood Boulevard.
According to AllHipHop.com, Miami rapper Pitbull will be honored with his very own Walk Of Fame star, during a ceremony that will take place next week at Los Angeles’ Celia Cruz Square.
“From landing number one hits in over 15 countries, nine billion YouTube/VEVO views, 70 million single sales, and six million album sales, Pitbull is unstoppable,” a spokesperson for the Walk Of Fame said, AllHipHop.com reports. “His relentless work ethic transformed him into a Grammy-winning international superstar, visionary entrepreneur, fashionista, and successful actor. His social media presence speaks to nearly 90 million people daily.”
Among those who will be in attendance at the ceremony honoring Pitbull is Luther “Luke” Campbell.
Luke, who played a vital role in establishing Pitbull’s music career, explained that the rapper was an artist who was “difficult into getting off the streets.”
“I remember having this conversation—Probably the one who was much more difficult into getting off the streets was Pitbull,” Luke said, during a 2014 interview with Vlad TV. “He was very, very difficult to let him understand—I actually had to take him and have him rap in front of a mirror. To let him look at his self because at the end of the day this kid was going in a totally different direction and he wouldn’t have been the guy he is today. And that’s basically what I was doing in the music business in Miami. Just trying to save young men’s lives.”
The Walk Of Fame ceremony honoring Pitbull will take place on July 15. His Walk Of Fame star will serve as the 2,584th.
Lmfao I’m no Pitbull hater but really? It’s bigger, more successful ppl without a star. He’s been out since 04 but none of his huge hits came out until like 2009. So he’s warranted a star on the Walk of Fame based on a 7 year stretch of success? That’s bs.
If you cater to white people like he did then you automatically qualify. Think about it: when he first started out he was rapping. Then like 3 years later, he switched to raggaeton, then EDM and pop music.

Its the fact during his time coming up rap was in a slump where it was just to agressive and losing popularity its come back again though and so fucking what if he catered to white people because you wanna know who in the world as a majority race has alot of money? WHITE PEOPLE wanna know honestly who some of the dumbest and easiest people are to brainwash? WHITE PEOPLE! (And im a white person saying this dumbass!) So if you cater to white people you become wealthy and succesful and have good numbers consistently just like now someone like me i was 11 years old in 1999 and got into hiphop i am now 28 and alot of other white people of my age were very into rap as well so now its becoming the popular genre selling very large numbers because of individuals like me who are WHITE who grew up listening to hiphop music and are now adults and the generations younger than me are either majorly into EDM music or hiphop as well thats why artists like drakes numbers are so fucking insane vs guys like eminem biggie 2pac jay z or nas or other very large draw artists coming up because they had a smaller fan base to work with then than the artists of today which is also why pitbulls so succesful especialy working foreign countries alot of the most popular artists dont do that as much and yes working the white demographic because they account for the largest number of people under a single race worldwide…so basicaly what im saying is go pick up a fucking book some time dumbass
Honestly speaking much respect to pitbull dude starting off battling alot of other rappers came up rapping hard ish then switched when he realized what would sell can’t hate on dude and his accomplishments.
FINE PITBULL
How the hell he get a star on the walk of fame an Jay-Z didn’t. He’s a perpetrator riding the tail coats of real hip hop artists. Hollywood walk of fame should be a shame of themselves. There’s diffently hip hop artists that came before this joker who should have gotten there dues way before this corny dude!!!!
Those stars mean nothing any more. When a low class, no talent “artist” can get a star, then you know they are worthless.
