    There was a time, SMH. I thought he was gon do somethin. He made a choice to capitalize. He coulda made some noise though. This was the first song I ever heard from dude, next time I seen him it was like he did a sign and trade to pop culture for chris brown.

    Young white people I guess. He and Pitbull went international....and won.


    Looks like he had the #2 selling single last year....#1 was Justin Timberlake.

    2. Flo Rida - 'My House'
    Flo's biggest track to date, 'My House', sold 515,000 copies in 2015... but it REALLY took off this year, moving another 2.2million! The US rapper belted out the smash at our Summertime Ball back in June, and had the whole of Wembley Stadium on their feet! (Pic: PA)




    This says he was worth 30 million back in 2013 and not many of us can name 1 of his songs.


    American rapper Flo-Rida has an estimated net worth of $30 million in 2013. He is best recognized for his hit song “Low,” which featured T-Pain. The single remained as a #1 hit in the US for ten weeks in 2008. He is also known for his single “Right Round” which sustained a #1 spot on US charts for six weeks.

    Some of his hit international singles include “Club Can’t Handle Me”, “Whistle”, “Wild Ones”, and “Good Feeling”. As of 2013, Flo-Rida has already released four studio albums, including Mail on Sunday (2008), R.O.O.T.S. (2009), Only One Flo (Part 1) (2010), and Wild Ones (2012). In the past Flo-Rida has collaborated with other artists like Nicki Minaj, David Guetta, Ke$ha, Akon, and Rick Ross. Best recognized for his stage name Flo-Rida, Tramar Lacel Dillard was born on September 16, 1979 in Carol City, Florida, United States.

    His debut Mail On Sunday was actually a decent "rap" album before he completely went the "party rap" route.

    He's a good rapper, I guess. Both he and Pitbull are a hell of a lot better than what's popular these days. But as someone else said, his music is soulless. So from a general Hip Hop standpoint, it's not very good.

    Now that I think about it Pitbull's first album was basically a gangsta/crunk album that was mostly produced by Lil Jon if I remember right. He was on a couple songs on early Khaled albums that weren't party type songs either like "Born-N-Raised" with Trick Daddy and Rick Ross.

    I'm sure he well touring. Plus like what's already been mentioned, you stay here his ? on tv ads, trailers etc.

    They ain't giving that ? a $50 dollar bill and a fresh pack of wifebeaters. He making some bread by letting him use his music.
