Pitbull was present at the ceremony on Wednesday (August 19), where he was presented with the key by Commissioner Thomas Regalado.
"I can't help but keep staring at it [the key], because it's something I've worked so hard for." He told reporters.
"I'm very passionate about Miami... Miami has built my character, and it has taught me a lot about life and helped me in my career."
Pitbull releases his fourth studio album 'Rebelution' on August 31st, which features the hit singles 'I Know You Want Me (Calle Ocho)' and 'Hotel Room Service'.
Talking about the LP, he says: "The new album has an international, global feel to it, but it's actually a tour of Miami through my mind."
"I'll take you through the streets of Miami, from southwest to northwest and all the way to the beach."
