Flo Rida Goes Platinum First Week.

[Art Barr]

he gonna be rich forever just from this song

If you had no cultural integrity.
anybody with the payola could make these huff ass records and get a return.
as a matter of fact any money he makes is a fake return.
as, those songs are all placed via payola.
they are not organic and real talk.
the pResident being black should have went and destroyed.
the entire market of radio and put them under federal sanctions.
as, it eliminates and stifles not just black life but culture in america in general.
past the legal ramifications and damages.
anyway, this is a topic for a later day.
after we can concretely and conclusively place blame.
which given how the world is may never come to full fruition.

I'm new to this forum, so if that's your Schtick so be it

But that is not how the English language is meant to be utilized in written form

From the few posts I seen from you, you seem to be a pretty knowledgeable guy

As such, I would expect better punctuation and sentence structure

Your expectation and reality don't match.
which is why your post have a disconnect and mine don't.
it is a reason I am that nikka, world wiDE from this shyt.
plus, no other poster in the culture comes close in just A cultural based medium.
I speak to unite.
not make people feel bad cause they may not be fully schooled to your liking.

If anyone is a member of the Illuminati it's this nikka Flo Rida. He sold his soul to someone.

The explanation for his success sits outside of the realms of possibility (hence the Illuminati and selling ones soul)

Slow down killer



It's clear by your replies and, at a 2nd glance, your signature that you take this internet thing very seriously

I'm sure you have your reasons, so i will just fall back and let you keep cooking


But for future reference, I'm a positive poster and try to stay clear of negativity. So my questions are meant to incite conversations and dialogue, not to cause trouble. Sorry if you felt some type of way, there was no ill intent

I appreciate that.

He always had a singy songy style and was great with hooks... when he was cutting tracks with Ross, most hip hop fans weren't fukking with him.



He found his lane, stays in it...that's where too many rappers fail... trying to do shyt that aint for them, and getting clowned for it.

 

[Young/Nacho\Drawz]

this is an example of album sales being irrelevant. Flo Rida is trash, but he's got a platinum single out and probably makes most of his money from touring

 

[African Peasant]

Flo Rida is selling singles. How much money can you lake from singles ?

What about the record company being deep in your pocket.

Wait and see.

Your point makes no sense. Florida having a hot single but pitiful album sales shows he has no real fanbase. How does that mean album sales are irrelevant?

 

[DonFrancisco]

His new single is super weak.....I doubt he cares, he had a good career. As weird as this sounds, he was my favorite pop artist. I never messed with US pop music unless it was Flo Rida

He's been doing this for almost 10 years.

Has 3 #1 singles,7 other top 10 singles, and 3 more that placed top 40

The record company loves dudes like Flo Rida, cause they don't have to invest much into them and they churn out huge singles.

You talking that "Wait and See" shyt about a dude who's sold 30 Million singles.....Since he's hit the scene (2007), he's sold more singles than Beyonce.

 

[MegaTronBomb!]

i commend this man... how many one hit wonders are there... now tell me who didn't think he'd be one

he's actually hip hops first hit single man... i mean every fukking single he drops goes plat... 30 million in single sasles.. you'd be hard pressed to find a list of rappers who sold more singles... or albums


more "club" rappers should do this... say fukk the album and mixtape.. and just drop like 5-6 club bangers a year and call it a day

That title belongs to T-Pain.

flois paid... even if he made 10 cents a single.. that's still 3 mil... that's just sales.. that doesn't count the millions of times these shyts are played.. that's another check.. writing credits.. that's another check.. doing big ass shows in other countries... fat checks since his singles are international type of club music

he's not a dumb guy either.. he was on stern after get low... he already was investing his money and saving a lot of it then.. one of the first things he did was make sure he had his money to be set up for life, then started balling

besides the fact that his music isn't what any of us want it to be.. he's doing it and in a place a whole lot rappers wish they were..


if anyone could sell 30 million singles, everyone would sell 30 million singles.. a single person with a string of htis isn't JUST dumb luck and money.. not in this era.. too many people have access to do that

it's irrelevant to his success as an artist. He's still got hot singles, he's still on the radio, he's still in the club, he's still getting big money for shows.

Being a successful musician and selling a lot of records don't always need to go hand in hand.
