Pitbull's "Get Ready" features country music star Blake Shelton! Watch the pair bring the party to Nashville, Tennessee, and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida!
Pitbull and Blake Shelton have teamed up to put their own spin on Ram Jam’s 1977 hit song, “Black Betty”! Check out the “Get Ready” music video which features Nashville, Tennessee, and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida below!
So what inspired this unexpected collaboration? Shelton’s dog, which is also named Black Betty.
“We were doing a show together in Pendleton, Oregon,” the rapper shared with PEOPLE. “We had a great time, the Crown [Royal] was amazing. Next thing you know I’m in the trailer, a little dog runs up on me. I go to pet the dog and I said, ‘Blake, what’s the dog’s name?’ and he said, ‘Black Betty.’”
So it stayed in my mind,” Pitbull explained, “When I jumped on the plane, I told DJ Chino, I said ‘Hey, don’t we got a record called ‘Black Betty’ that we’ve been sitting on?’”
He added, “And sure enough, he played it for me and we’re sitting on it from 2014, and now we’re shooting a video here in Nashville in 2020. Goes to show you, patience is a virtue.”
