What Is Pitbull's Net Worth?

Pitbull is a Cuban-American rapper and songwriter who has a net worth of $100 million. Pitbull is one of the most popular musical artists in the world today. He is also an entrepreneur and spokesman for dozens of brands. Though Pitbull is most widely recognized for his massively popular rap albums and mixtapes, he is also a prolific producer and champion of Latino music, as well as a television personality and savvy businessman. He has cultivated a decidedly debonair style, with hyper-tailored suits, sunglasses, and wing-tip shoes, that is slightly at odds with the style of many rap artists currently working today. He and P. Diddy co-founded Bad Boy Latino, a subsidiary of Bad Boy Records, in 2005, and Pitbull's entire career has been structured in much the same vein as Diddy's, though Pitbull has been considerably more prolific when it comes to releasing original music.  He has also aligned himself with multiple ad agencies and has had lucrative endorsement deals with such companies as Kodak, Dr. Pepper, and Voli Vodka. Pitbull has sold more than 25 million studio albums worldwide.

Early Life

Pitbull was born Armando Christian Perez on January 15, 1981, in Miami, Florida. His parents, Cuban expatriates, separated when he was young, and he was raised by his mother, who kicked him out of their house when he was 16. He briefly lived with a foster family in Roswell, Georgia. Pitbull then became a drug dealer, just like his father. He attended South Miami Senior High School before graduating from Miami Coral Park High School. Post-school, he chose the stage name Pitbull and focused on launching a rapping career.

His first recorded mainstream performance was on a solo track from Lil Jon's 2002 album "Kings of Crunk," which featured Pitbull rapping over Jon. Pitbull then began to release mixtapes composed of both remixes of popular rap music and his own freestyles.

In 2004, Pitbull released his debut album, "M.I.A.M.I.," which is short for "Money Is A Major Issue." The lead single, "Culo," was produced by Lil John. The album reached #2 on the US Rap chart and #14 on the "Billboard" 200 chart. The following year, Pitbull and Sean "Diddy" Combs co-founded Bad Boy Latino, a label that focuses on Latin hip-hop, soul, and other tropical music.

Pitbull released his second album, "El Mariel," in 2006. That album also reached #2 on the US Rap chart. He dedicated it to his father, who had died earlier that year. The album was full of many politically-themed tracks, as well as Pitbull's typical party anthems. Pitbull released the album "The Boatlift" in 2007, with his single "Go Girl" peaking at #80 on the "Billboard" charts. His fourth album, "Pitbull Starring in Rebelution," was released in 2009 and reached #1 on the US Rap chart. In 2010, he released the album "Armando," which was his first full-length Spanish language album. That year, he was one of the nominated artists for the "Billboard" Latin Music Awards.
