Flo Rida Skydives Over Dubai In “Wild Ones” Video

Thu Feb 9 2012 by Becky Bain
As Flo Rida's "Good Feeling" continues to crawl up the Hot 100 (it's currently at its peak position at #3), the MC is having some majorly good feelings in his fun-loving new video for "Wild Ones". In the vid, the Miami native travels around the world to Dubai, and keeps busy with a full schedule of wild activities: sky-diving (yep, that really is Flo falling out of a plane), air-boating, and partying the night away. Sia, who is featured on the track, unfortunately sits this one out. What, could Flo not afford one more plane ticket to UAE? We wanna see Sia skydive, too! Vid below. More »

Flo Rida Has A “Good Feeling” On ‘Ellen’

Wed Feb 1 2012 by Becky Bain
The club can't handle Flo Rida, but Ellen DeGeneres' soundstage certainly can. The rapper stopped by the morning show to perform his Top 10 hit  "Good Feeling", which takes its hook from Avicii's "Levels", which in turn samples the late Etta James' 1962 song "Something's Got a Hold On Me". "I’m deeply saddened by the passing of the Great Etta James and I will be forever grateful for the gift she blessed me with," tweeted the rapper after hearing of James' death. Celebrate Etta's iconic voice and Flo's flow in the performance below. More »

Rihanna Nabs Flo Rida For Unnecessary “We Found Love” Remix

Fri Jan 13 2012 by Becky Bain
Being that Rihanna's "We Found Love" has enough beats and synths to be its own remix, not to mention it couldn't possibly be even more popular on the Hot 100 (the song has been #1 for nine non-consecutive weeks), we find it pointless to release a new version of the single with Flo Rida. And yet, here we are. The original should still do you just fine, but if you can't bear to listen to a pop song nowadays without a rap added onto it somewhere (thanks, Katy), head below. More »

Flo Rida And Sia Are “Wild Ones” On New Dance Track

Thu Dec 15 2011 by Becky Bain
We're thrilled that Sia has had a change of heart from when she previously said she was thinking about giving up music to become "a dog masseuse", as the Aussie singer-songwriter has been popping up all over the place. After working with Christina Aguilera (on Bionic and Burlesque, as well as on Xtina's upcoming LP and on The Voice), she appeared on David Guetta's "Titanium", and can be currently heard bubbling all over Flo Rida's new club banger "Wild Ones". Hear it below! More »

Taylor Swift Brings Flo Rida On Stage In Miami For “Right Round”

Mon Nov 14 2011 by Becky Bain
After bringing out Nelly, B.o.B, Nicki Minaj and T.I., unexpected rap fan  Taylor Swift brought out yet another rapper for an energetic duet on her Speak Now tour. Flo Rida joined the country star on stage in Miami to perform "Right Round", with Taylor taking on Ke$ha's part on the hook. Watch their righteous live performance below as we imagine an alternate world where Taylor Swift and Ke$ha have switched places, with Ke$ha singing squeaky clean songs about mean people while Taylor chugs back Jack Daniels and hunts down unicorns for sport.

Taio Cruz’s “Hangover” Video Is One Big Party

Tue Oct 25 2011 by Robbie Daw
Taio Cruz's video for "Hangover" plays out somewhat like Katy Perry's all-star summer visual for her record-setting single "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)" — we get to see the before and after of wild rager, ensuing headaches and all. Only we're pretty sure Katy's clip didn't include a passed out woman in a baby crib, or some dude stripping out of a bear costume and bumping and grinding, half-naked, at the crack of dawn. Join the party below! More »
