Here, he doesn't offer much more than a couple worthy singles and a handful of decent album cuts, and those highlights, such as the Timbaland-produced (and hogged) "Elevator," tend to be memorable more for the beats and the hooks than the rhymes.
-
For every witty rhyme, there is enough cringe-worthy couplets.
-
Other than the album's highlight, the resonant break-up song "Still Missin'," Mail on Sunday rarely delivers.
-
For much of his debut album, Flo Rida seems like he's trying to match the broad appeal of "Low," but he has only limited success.
-
The result is so robotic in its attempt to jolt every single pleasure center every single second that any twist of human joy, lust, awareness, or reflection is assimilated into its brittle, crunky Borg cube.
-
His subjects are the standard sex/money/hustler/romance/gangster fantasies, and all the new-millennium fast life references you expect.
-
Flo Rida himself is able and charismatic, but doesn't sustain a compelling persona on every cut, which instead stand or fall (mostly the former) on their production.
-
BlenderHe has nimble delivery and a pleasing Nelly-esque hiccup to his voice. [May 2008, p.78]
