People are not impressed by Aquaman's OST and it's primarily because of Pitbull. The Jason Momoa, Aber Heard starrer has been raking not just big bucks but brilliant praises in the industry and among fans too. It really has maintained a level of awesomeness created by Wonder Woman after some of DCEU's films received sever backlashes in the recent past.
Basically, things are turning for the best for DC Comics as they've finally cracked the formula to astound fans with good storytelling and great action sequences. Momoa's Aquaman also managed to upscale the value of the superhero who is otherwise considered a joke in the fandom.
For the #Aquaman soundtrack, Pitbull recorded his own version of 'Africa' by Toto called 'Ocean to Ocean' 😳

But as Aquaman as a movie does well, the original soundtrack of the final hasn't been the best part about the movie! Fans are in fact, shading Pitbull for trying and failing in creating a soundtrack that should've matched the outstanding stature of the film. Oh, and there are no positive or negative sides of reviews to this piece. The hate for Pitbull's version of Ocean to Ocean has been tantamount with all the fans. The song, which is a rendition of Toto's Africa, has been a biig fail for fans. Thank god that hasn't stopped them from flocking to the theatres and watching the film. You can check out the song below.
It took 34 years, but I've found the worst song in recorded history. It's Pitbull's take on Toto's "Africa" for Aquaman and its awfulness is a spectacle to behold. From the speaking intro to every Pitbull "whooooo" coming out of the hook. It's glorious. https://t.co/RUnR0f2GKt

Petition to take Pitbull's wacky Africa "cover" knockoff from Aquaman, and replace it with the superior @ninjasexparty True Cover of the song. (And put it on the movie instead)

On the same, Pitbull quoted in a statement, “The ocean, the sea and any body of water, to me, is true freedom,” and added, “The ocean has always been the border from where my parents came from Cuba and the United States, which gives us freedom. That’s why I respect water. Bottom line: water gives us freedom.”
