TIMBER!

Pitbull and Ke$ha have worked extremely hard to make it all the way to the top with their new hit, ‘Timber’.

Pitbull and Ke$ha had collaborated back in 2009 on ‘Girls’ and more recently on a remix of Ke$ha’s ‘Crazy Kids’ that was the musical equivalent of a long, deep sigh of powerless frustration. Mr. Worldwide roped in the pop princess for the, now very popular, song about making things go down called ‘Timber’. It’s said to have a very catchy country-pop riff to it and that Ke$ha’s chorus is nicely triumphant.

“I’ve been all around the world touring and it was a record from Avicii that was so big and had this country feel to it, so when this record came down produced by Dr. Luke, Cirkut and Sermstyle, and I said, ‘Man, I need to get my hands on that.’ Pitbull told Ryan Seacrest. “And being on tour with Ke$ha, we hit it off and what better than to have a crazy, sexy, cool, beautiful woman on it with me.”
