Pitbull Joining Mets Mania with a Remix of Second Baseman Jose Iglesias’ Hit Song ‘OMG’

OMG! Pitbull is jumping in on the Mets’ postseason run.

The 43-year-old rapper will be featured on a remix of Mets’ second baseman Jose Iglesias’ song “OMG,” releasing on Friday, Oct. 11, as the New York fan base celebrates their team advancing to the National League Championship Series.

Silvestre Dangond will also be featured on the remix with Pitbull.

Iglesias, 34, has a side hustle as a musician and released the song in June under his stage name, Candelita. He first performed it at Citi Field, inspiring Mets fans to adopt the track as the team’s anthem this season and bring “OMG” inspired signs and merchandise to support the team at games.

The song and music video debuted at No. 1 overall on the Billboard charts for Latin digital song sales, USA Today reported.

According to Mets play-by-play announcer Evan Stockton, Iglesias first played the hit song for his teammates in the clubhouse back in April,

“It’s a blessing, it’s a dream come true,” Iglesias said of having Pitbull on the remix during an appearance on the Diggin’ Deep Podcast, adding that he’s “glad” to be able to “connect with people” through his music.

The Mets defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 4-1 on Wednesday, advancing to the next round of the MLB playoffs with the World Series in their sights. After the win, the team celebrated with champagne in the clubhouse while dancing to Iglesias’ hit song.

“A @Mets celebration wouldn’t be complete without the whole team singing OMG,” Fox Sports wrote in a post sharing footage from the epic celebration on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Friends and family, as well as fans, of the team were prepared for the festivities with their “OMG” signs at Citi Field. The team’s owner, Steve Cohen, was also seen holding up a sign with the title of Iglesias’ hit song.
