Leading podcast platform PodcastOne, a subsidiary of LiveXLive Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: LIVX) (“LiveXLive”) has teamed with as a brand partner for the launch of the highly-anticipated new podcast/vodcast from Grammy Award-winning global superstar Pitbull From Negative to Positive. The vodcast further broadens the feelgood empire that has been firmly established by the artist. Launching October 8, 2020, the podcast and vodcast will kick off with legendary artist Flo Rida in episode 1 followed by intimate and in-depth interviews with Lil Jon in episode 2 and noted producer Uncle Luke aka Luther Campbell from 2 Live Crew in episode 3.

“‘From Negative to Positive’ will bring Pitbull’s uplifting and inspiring view on life and its opportunities to millions of listeners and viewers worldwide through intimate and often hilarious conversations with Pitbull’s contemporaries,” said Peter Morris, CEO of PodcastOne. “Pepsi aligns with messages of empowerment and beating the odds and we’re thrilled to have them on board for the launch of this show.”

Miami-native musical giants Pitbull and Flo Rida join forces for the first episode of Pitbull’s new podcast ‘From Negative to Positive’. In the episode debuting on October 8, the two discuss how coming from a city as diverse and filled with culture as Miami helps them connect with fans and people around the world. Both acknowledge each other’s worldwide success, with Pitbull going as far to say that Flo Rida reaches and performs in more parts of the world than any other black artist.

Later in the show, Pitbull discusses the importance of giving back to your community as a successful artist with the old adage “you can’t take it with you.” Having opened his own charter school in Miami, Pitbull is well versed in the education world and even makes a comparison between the public-school system and the prison system. He shares his purpose for giving back and efforts to be an example for the kids who are in the same place he was as a kid, to show them “if we can do it, they can do it.”
