Pitbull gives Dolly Parton's '9 to 5' a new spin
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
Dolly Parton has a new
song with Pitbull... and it slaps!
Pitbull has teamed up with Dolly Parton for a hip-hop-meets-country collaboration that has social media users talking.
Pitbull released his EP, 'Trackhouse (Daytona 500 Edition)', last week. The seven-song EP features several guest artists including Dolly.
Dolly features on the song, 'Powerful Women', which samples her mega-hit, '9 to 5'. The song was originally released in 1980 and went on to win a Grammy for 'Best Country Song'.
Pitbull says his collab with Dolly is dedicated to all the powerful women in the world. He raps on the song:
All my powerful women working nine to five
Two, three jobs just to survive
All my powerful women, no man at home
Raisin' all the kids alone
All my powerful women, y'all deserve a throne
Keep your head up and stay strong
All my powerful women, no matter what
Never give up "

Another user added: "The most random featuring ever, but the most needed version ever!! To all the hard-working Mother!"
