Timeline

1981

Armando Christian Pérez (born January 15, 1981), known professionally as Pitbull, is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, businessman, and actor.

Armando Christian Pérez was born on January 15, 1981, in Miami, Florida, to Cuban immigrant parents.

While growing up, he was strongly encouraged by his family to "take advantage" of the privilege of living in America, and the opportunities it came with.

His family has a history of fighting against the Castro regime in Cuba.

When he was three, he could recite the works of Cuban national hero and poet José Martí in Spanish.

He learned English by watching Sesame Street as a child.

His father was largely absent from his childhood; his parents separated when he was young, and he was raised mostly by his mother, later stating: "my mom is my father and my mother."

He briefly stayed with a foster family in Roswell, Georgia.

His parents struggled with substance abuse; as a teenager, he was also involved with drug use and dealing, which eventually led to him getting kicked out of the family house.

He attended South Miami Senior High School and Miami Coral Park High School.

While growing up, he was influenced by the Miami bass genre of pop music and has cited Celia Cruz and Willy Chirino as sources of inspiration, in addition to rappers such as Nas, Jay-Z, and Snoop Dogg.

He stated that Miami's melting pot characteristics exposed him to various cultures which influenced his artistry and himself as a person.

"It's a melting pot. You know, it's a melting pot. You get a chance to grow up around so many different - you know, I've grown up in good neighborhoods, bad neighborhoods, worse neighborhoods. But growing up around so many cultures, it's always allowed me to think out of the box and try new sounds and try new things. You learn something new from every culture, just like I learn something new from every record."

He said he chose his stage name of Pitbull because the dogs "bite to lock. The dog is too stupid to lose. And they're outlawed in Dade County. They're basically everything that I am. It's been a constant fight".

2000

He began his career in the early 2000s and recorded reggaeton, Latin hip hop, and crunk music under a multitude of labels.

In 2001, Pitbull was introduced to Robert Fernandez of Famous Artist Music & Management, an independent label and management company specializing in developing artists, by the Diaz Brothers, a producer duo signed to the company.

Fernandez "saw the eagerness and hunger he had" and, with the Luke Records deal ending, began working to develop Pitbull.

Together they focused on creating a more radio-friendly sound.

Fernandez later told HitQuarters: "At that time his music had a lot of verses and took a long time to get into the hook, and so we took time in getting the songs catchier and less on the rap side."
