Data Insight
Armando is Pitbull's first primarily Spanish-language album, named after his given name and aimed at his Latin audience. Pitbull co-writes throughout as Armando C. Perez, and the production pairs Latin and reggaeton flavors with European dance producers including Afrojack, DJ Buddha and Clinton Sparks. Guests range from Latin artists like El Cata, Sensato del Patio and Fuego to crossover names Pharrell and Lil Jon. The result blends merengue and dembow rhythms with the club-pop sound Pitbull was riding at the time.
Armando is Pitbull's fifth studio album, released August 24, 2010 on Mr. 305 Inc. and Sony Latino. It is an entirely Spanish-language album named after his legal first name, Armando, representing a deliberate return to his Latin roots between his English-language pop crossovers. The album features Afrojack, Nayer, and Papayo, and includes 'Bon, Bon,' later remixed into the global hit 'Give Me Everything.'
