Flo Rida Ties Kanye & Beyonce for 10-Week Single Run

Friday Feb 29 3:11 PM CST posted by xxl staff

Flo Rida’s smash single “Low” has landed on top of the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart for the tenth consecutive week, which puts the up and comer in the company as such superstars as Kanye West and Beyonce. The R&B princess was the previous record holder for her single “Irreplaceable,” which enjoyed a 10-week run during 2006 and 2007. Prior to Bey, Yeezy’s ubiquitous 2005 smash “Gold Digger,” with Jamie Foxx, held down the top spot for two and a half months. In related news, Flo may have another smash hit on his hands. His latest single, the Timbaland produced “Elevator,” shot up 72 places on the chart to land at No. 28. The Miami native’s debut album, Mail on Sunday, hits stores on March 18.

Straight Garbo says:

This is yet more evidence that proves naive young females and retarded half-homo thugs buy the most records, which in return fucks the game because puppet-string ass rappers start copying the formula of pop-hop faggotry and some are forced by labels to put this duchy sandwitch ass garbage on the airwaves.

Then you got American Idol ass mutherfuckers getting pieced together by labels just because they have a physical look that apparently get 12 year old girls all hot and disturbed, while the ugly ass skilled MC’s with sick rhymes sit in the dust because they don’t look good on camera.

Dude, you’re a fuckin fag for real. Hanging with killers and drug dealers doesn’t make you real, you fuckin fruitcup. Being real is a state of mind. Anywhoo, I seriously doubt that you lead the life you’re trying to portray, because anyone who really does that shit you say you do, and has killer and drug dealer friends, probably shouldn’t talk about it. Your not real. Go Die. Oh yeah, Fuck Flo Rida.

Flor Rida is from Carol City just like Rick Ross. He got a style like no other in a while and he gettin them Nelly fans and he gonna start gettin that Nelly cheese too in a minute if he aint already. The low song was bigger than I thought it would be. Me being a Dade County boy just like Flo it feels good to see MIAMI coming up. We been doing it in MIAMI as far as scenery, money, cars, luxury up the yin yang just like other bigger states. MIAMI is compared to other states like NY or CA. Im proud of the man and his acheivements, it says a lot for MIAMI and HIP HOP. Dazzit

Come on naughty says:

He’s gonna get that nelly cheese in a minute ? you gotta be kidding me.Nelly came out with no one on his first single or 2nd or third single and sold 10 million on his debut. Flo rida has a hit but both of his singles released was featured with T-pain who is every where and really popular and timbaland another cat who is really established and super popular. I think Flo needs to bring out fire by himself and show everyone how he really can hold his own.But if his first week sales are lower than 400k the first week it’s a wrap because the lable is not gonna want to keep paying for high priced features and spend lot’s of bread on promotion if cat’s aren’t buying the album only bumpin his shit when it’s on the radio that’s it.

We will see i guess. One thing I wanna know is what da fuck these niggaz consider talent? Everyone seems to have their own opinion on niggaz talent. Like Silk the Shocka is the wackest fuckin rapper alive on the face of the earth but da next nigga down the street might think he tight. You feel me? Read the new XXL mag with Snoop on the cover. There is a Flo Rida article in there. Read it then holla back.

Unfortunately all the naysayers arguments are falling on deaf ears. Not to minimize their arguments but Southern music is strongly driven by club hits whether it be in a booty club or somewhere on South Beach. It is returning to its bass roots, just let it b. e The world is bigger than a four block radius. Travel some and you will see why simplified music is winning.
