Agent Armando Bond aka Pitbull reports for duty on “Back in Time,” the theme song for the upcoming sci-fi action comedy Men in Black 3 starring Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones. Mr. Worldwide penned the radio-ready record, which features a sample of Mickey & Sylvia’s 1950s hit “Love Is Strange.”
“It’s an incredible honor to be a part of such an amazing franchise as Men in Black and I have so much respect for Will Smith, especially with our similar musical backgrounds,” said Pitbull. “Wanting to keep the music fun yet modern, we used the slogan of the movie and flipped it back into the song that ‘in order to understand the future, you have to go back in time.’”
Barry Sonnenfeld, the director of MIB3, added,
“My 19-year-old daughter turned me on to Pitbull. I’m thrilled that he wrote such a great song for our movie that totally gets it.”
