    His guests on Sunday bring ferocious beats (like will.i.am on ''In the Ayer'') and infectious hooks (Sean Kingston on ''Roll'').
  2. Billboard
    70
    His hooks can be rock-solid ('Ack Like You Know') and his interest in gleaming synthesizerism (opener 'American Superstar' comes into 'Tubular Bells' territory, really) helps set him off from the legions of rappers clawing over each other to break out of the South.
  3. RapReviews.com
    70
    He's a little bit Twista, a little bit Trick Daddy, and a whole lot Nelly. None of those things are negative, but the fact he can't distinguish himself from any of them isn't a positive.
  4. Village Voice
    50
    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.
  5. Boston Globe
    50
    For every witty rhyme, there is enough cringe-worthy couplets.
  6. Los Angeles Times
    50
    Other than the album's highlight, the resonant break-up song "Still Missin'," Mail on Sunday rarely delivers.
  7. Slant Magazine
    20
    He joylessly repeats all the tired tropes of Southern party rap (brand-name fetishizing, drug-trade mythologizing, stripper-bitch glorifying), and the album's best track has already been let out of the bag.

    It's obvious that a lot of the reviewers are not from Florida, and do not understand our music.

By looking in the records, either they underestimate his popularity, or no one is listening to critics in Omaha and New York. Trey O Five is back. Flo Rida, Rick Ross, Trina, DJ Khaled!!!!… Expand

    An example that style over substance can be successful. There is no denying that these tracks are made for the club environment but youAn example that style over substance can be successful. There is no denying that these tracks are made for the club environment but you shouldn't give something a bad mark if it makes you dance. Flo-Rida is childish vocally and will not gain any new fans based on his lyrical talent but you cannot deny his awesome ability to fill a song with plenty of material and then do it ten times over. In that sense he is no different to say Eminem, though he is obviously technically inferior to 99% of MC's. However his line "I got my money right..." hits the nail on the head. Collaborations with Timbaland proves that he is in the money and good for him. 5/10 53/100… Expand
