    big, buff and poppy as hell but he has his radio hits but doesnt want to leave that "tough guy" persona. this project has "Right round" (which i love hearing in the hangover) "jump" and "sugar" as its top hits. radio and soundtrack friendly. 2009 was weird.

    The unsurprisingly inconsistent R.O.O.T.S. is hip-hop like Nas never happened, a flash or fodder album owing more to Lady GaGa than to Public Enemy.

    The problem is that he shows no growth--besides realizing, along with his producers, that if you throw every hook known to man into the pop ocean, you are bound to catch something.

    Flo Rida boasts an adroit double-timed flow, but his greatest achievement is his understanding of how to stay in the background, never overwhelming the electro-laced tracks.
