    Pitbull Starring in Rebelution was met with "mixed or average" reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, this release received an average score of 51 based on 7 reviews.[13]

    In a review for AllMusic, David Jeffries wrote: "On the mistitled Rebelution, rapper Pitbull takes a cue from his homeboy Flo Rida and dives headfirst into the lucrative world of ultra-slick Miami club-rap. Even if it's not the most persuasive mood album, once the party has kicked into high gear Rebelution will certainly keep it going."[14] Ayala Ben-Yehuda of Billboard gave a mixed review, explaining: "You either love or hate Pitbull's music, and sometimes a little of both when listening to the same album. As with the Miami rapper's past releases, his newest set, "Rebelution," is a mix of infectious dance hooks and rapid-fire rhymes — some are clever and fun, others are just plain graphic."[15]

    Commercial performance[edit]

    Pitbull Starring in Rebelution debuted at number eight on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 41,000 copies its first week, according to Nielsen Soundscan.[7] This became Pitbull's first US top-ten debut.[7] As of April 2012, the album had sold 249,000 copies in the US.[22] On October 16, 2020, the album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for combined sales and album-equivalent units of over 500,000 units in the United States.[23]
