===2006 - present: Mixtapes, Spanish singles, beef with Pitbull, Bang Bang Boogie===
After the Chain Reaction album, Cuban continued to release music independently, releasing several mixtapes and stayed in New York's underground hip-hop scene. In addition, Cuban had a point in his music career when he started embracing his Latin roots even more by rapping in Spanish. In 2008, he released the posse cut "Nos Tienen Miedo" which was a diss towards rapper [[Pitbull (rapper)|Pitbull]] and Cuban's former protégé Don Dinero. It was followed by "Nos Tienen Miedo 2" which was released in 2010. Cuban Link released several hip-hop songs in Spanish and collaborated with many Latin artists such as [[Don Omar]], [[Zion]], [[Nengo Flow]], [[Temperamento]] and many others. Around that time, he had beef with [[Pitbull (rapper)|Pitbull]] for unknown reasons. It is unknown what caused this beef but it is presumably because of Pitbull's diss track towards Cuban which was released in 2003 so Cuban responded with some diss tracks and allegedly assaulted Pitbull by punching him in the face. Their beef eventually ended in an unknown period of time as both rappers moved on.
