Flo Rida released his fourth studio album on July 3 named “Wild Ones.” The album features the smash singles “Good Feeling” and “Wild Ones.” Flo Rida, a rapper who hails from Carol City, FL, burst onto the scene in 2008 with the hit singles “Low,” “Elevator,” and “In the Ayer” on his album “Mail on Sunday.” His singles are wildly successful due to their heavy play in clubs around the country due to his mix of techno and pop lyrics.
His sidekicks on the R You On The List? tour are also no strangers to success.
