It's Ole Ola (We Are One) Vs La, La,La (Brazil 2014), and it doesn't get bigger than this.
The official rap-pop anthem of the Fifa World Cup, featuring Pitbull, Jennifer Lopez and Brazilian pop singer Claudia Leitte, seems to have scored a self-goal of sorts with critics dismissing it as a 'big bag of cliches' and full of 'lazy stereotypes'.
No wonder then that Shakira's new song, La, La, La (Brazil 2014) is now being championed as the alternative anthem the world over. Since its release last month, the video has already clocked a whopping 47 million views! So, whose side are you on? Pitbull's or Shakira's? - See more at: http://www.hindustantimes.com/entertainment/music/of-pitbull-shakira-and-the-beautiful-song/article1-1228736.aspx#sthash.rVfGYCnL.dpuf

Before
you make your choice, let's look at the few good things Pitbull has to offer. Keep
that sledgehammer aside for some time.
First up, try to listen to the song in isolation: meaning, forget, for now, that it is the official Fifa World Cup anthem… yeah, just don't also think of the football fever that's gripped the world. Like it? Think it is a good song?
Here's more. Ole Ola has a good mix of English and Spanish words (okay, most of it is random gibberish for us). But do we really care for the lyrics as long as the music does the trick? Come on, it is definitely a great progress from Pitbull mouthing three-four absolutely random capital cities of first world countries in all his songs (L.A. Miami New York, Say no more, Get on the floor- On the Floor). If this much Spanish wasn't enough for you he brought Claudia Leitte for you with quite a chunk of Spanish lyrics.
