Birth Name:

Armando Christian Pérez

Birth Place:

Miami, Florida. United States

Date of Birth:

January 14, 1981

Ethnicity:

Cuban

Pitbull was born in Miami Florida to first-generation Cuban American parents. His parents instilled the Cuban culture in him by making him memorize the words of Cuban poet, José Martí.

He was quoted in an article in the Miami Times that being “white with blue eyes” made his journey into the rap music industry a little difficult as he didn’t fit the typical mold for a rapper.

Pitbull’s primary genre is Latin Rap and Reggaeton with some Miami Bass flavor. Pitbull has a penchant for dropping verses in Spanish.

P.S. not that the facts hinge on my acceptance. He is a white Cuban. Period. Whether anyone else likes it or not. He is Caucasian.

If you have to say you’re “White”, then you probably aren’t. I know you’re not and Pitbull looks like a suspicious Mullato. He has a thick-nostril nose and a craino-structure of an African (look at he creases on the back of his head). Also, the reason he’s bald is because his hair has kinky texture (like an African). Go on Google and look at pictures of him with hair, and you’ll see him with dreadlocks also.

A lot of Cubans have African blood…even the so-called “Whites”. Pitbull looks like a mullato, he has the craino-structure of one and his nostrils look pretty flaring, like almost flat.

I’ve seen Africans with blue eyes, not really a viable point.

Pitbull is pretty white, but by society or atleast white society they will never consider him white because he’s not European, or that he’s Latino/Hispanic !

That is nonsence he is Cuban im in Europe i would see him as a Cuban person.We do not use that label as Latino/Hispanic here that is used so much in the US.Just like i would call a person from( Russia ) as Russian ,a person from (America) as American and a person from China (Chineese)a person from (Meixco )as Mexican regardless of skin colour
.People need to understand that the world does not revolve around the label?terms that the US uses
