I'd say Henry Flagler and Julia Tuttle did a better job than Gloria Estafan and K.C. and the Sunshine Band for putting it on the map.

I think he was referring in terms of popular music, otherwise it was scarface, Miami vice, and golden girls, Jacki Gleason, and The Beatles the ones responsible to bring Miami into fame.

But if you want to know who put Miami on the map, I think it was Celia Cruz! Also Hector Lavoe with Aguanile!

Pitbull is a talentless fool. Please spare us the horror that is his so-called "music". I bet you're one of those people with two 12" bass speakers in your car shaking everyone's rivets lose at stoplights.

play a sample of a tune and talk over it.
thats what the music industry has become
my younger brothers have completely rejected the 'music of their generation'
when that happens you know something is wrong.
