 Typical Pitbull song, imo   
Horrible rap verses, catchy chorus.  If this'll become a hit, it'll most likely be because of Ke$ha

 yall gotta chill 
 
ppl always say this but Dont Stop The Party was successful and he did the chorus 
 
I guess Feel This Moment was successful because of Christina and Pitbull had no part in it

 I feel people are giving Pitbull way too much hate. He may not be a diverse lyricist, but his delivery and tone are always great. I think he adds to the song just nicely.

 Fume a bit    YOU need to chill, if anything.
 
By "it'll most likely be because of Ke$ha," I mean it's because she saved the song.  Pitbull's verses were horrible, people aren't going to listen to this song just to hear him rap some things about Miley Cyrus and asses.  They'll probably be hear for the catchy-ass chorus.
 
And who said anything about Feel This Moment?

 The "Pitbull's verses were horrible" is completely subjective, though.
 
Regardless, if any song becomes a hit, it's  usually due to the catchy hook anyway, so yeah, it's mainly Ke$ha.

 I know that.  But if "Miley"and "asses" are your thing, then hey, sorry if I offended anyone    
I wasn't even trying to shade Pitbull's whole discography, I'm only talking about this song's chart performance.

  yes this is a typical Pitbull song but his songs always tend to do well 
 
 he brings energy to his songs as well and that's why single after single is does good on the charts...radio loves him 
 
sadly...the public only uses him when hes making carefree party tracks but hey...it works

 Pretty sure it's mainly due to Dr. Luke.

 Yeah, you're probably right. Most people will be buying the song because it's produced by Dr. Luke. I mean, of course, that's common knowledge. It's basically Dr. Luke f/ Pitbull & Ke$ha, tbh.

 People don't know him, but he was behind the great chorus and production that the public pays attention to.

 So you're insinuating that Ke$ha didn't write the chorus, mhm?

 Perhaps the lyrics, but I bet the melody was done by Dr. Luke and Cirkut.

 Probably, but the GP doesn't care about melody or instrumentals. They care about catchy songs, which is what Ke$ha delivers with the hook.

 Pitbull wrote the verses and everyone had a hand in the pre-chorus and chorus

 What I meant was they don't really care who's behind the song in terms of production... like I'm sure most people wouldn't realise that "Timber", "Roar" and "Wrecking Ball" were all produced by Dr. Luke. Of course they actually care what it sounds like, but they also care about who's providing the vocals.

 typical Pitbull song formation 
 
that has to be the only way because a lot of his recent tracks have guest features on the chorus...it just seems logical for this to.happen

 Oh, okay. I just can't envision K$ needing help to write a 4-line chorus when she can write entire songs by herself, that's all.
