"Why would you drive all the way up there?"
"I love her music..."
"What do you like about it?"
"She plays a lot of PitBull!"
"Who is PitBull?"
I was having a post-class discussion with long-time participant and friend Denise when I exposed my utter cluelessness about popular music. When I got home I asked my two daughters (18 & 22) if they knew who PitBull was and they informed me that PitBull was a rapper who works with lots of other popular artists. You need to get with-it Dad!
Enter Spotify to get myself hip 🙁
First I checked the Top Instructor Class Music list Barbara Hoots put together last year. No Pitbull.
So I searched for Pitbull and was quickly exposed to a bunch of tracks that weren't half-bad.
I used two in my class this past Thursday night - sans Denise, who I'm guessing was attending to a soon-to-be new mother in her role as a delivery nurse.
Totally ripped off from Chris Hawthorne playlist + Pitbull
But there were a number of twenty somethings in class, who's head's shot up with big smiles, when this track feat Shakria cross-faded in.

Pitbull is a staple in my class. If you need to get the energy level up and you need a good climb…play some Pitbull! Use “Don’t Stop the Party” and have your class add a gear everytime you hear “are y’all havin’ a good time?”
