The release debuted at No. 7 on the Nielsen SoundScan chart and features several hit tracks including his No.1 single “Give Me Everything.” Produced by Dr. Luke, RedOne, Max Martin and David Guetta, Planet Pit is packed with guest appearances including Marc Anthony, Enrique Iglesias, Jamie Foxx, Kelly Rowland, Chris Brown, T-Pain, Sean Paul, Ne-Yo and Afrojack. Planet Pit is available on iTunes for only $7.99 now through May 7.
