Pitbull breaks down the night he made history at Hyde Park in London—performing for 70,000 fans, setting a record, and landing a Guinness World Records moment with his “Baldies.” In this Billboard Cover Interview, Mr. 305 reflects on why that show felt different: “time froze.”

From there, Pitbull gets real about the mindset behind staying “Mr. Worldwide”—from growing up in Miami surrounded by different cultures, to learning how to turn the raw into something polished without losing the truth. He also opens up about betting on himself in the business (including walking away from deals, rebuilding, and thinking long-term about streaming), why music is a universal language, and the advice he’d give artists carrying Latin culture on a global stage.

Plus, Pitbull talks Pitcoin, future touring plans, and the documentary he’s building—featuring interviews with names like Bon Jovi, Nile Rodgers, and Tony Robbins.
