對rapper的研究不多，不過倒是喜歡Flo Rida(佛羅·里達)和Kesha合唱的Right Round。

第一次聽到Right Round是在電影醉後大丈夫(The Hangover)的片尾曲(這首歌也是The Ugly Truth和Pilla Zamindar等電影的背景音樂)，當時這首歌的旋律讓我印象深刻，讓我有種暈頭轉向的感覺(傳說中的洗腦)。

Flo Rida表示：「這首歌想表達的是一個年輕的妙齡女子，也許是在脫衣酒吧、也許只是從我面前走過等等，她徹底抓住我的眼光、令我瘋狂。」

Kesha

Right Round曾做為電影醉後大丈夫的片尾曲

Right Round收錄在Flo Rida的專輯R.O.O.T.S裡，雖然這首歌在歌詞和音樂型態的部分引發外界不少批評，但在市場銷售上Right Round還是相當成功，一共在包括美國Billboard Hot 100(五張白金認證)、英國、加拿大、澳洲等多個國家音樂榜拿下冠軍，堪稱Flo Rida早期的代表作，至今仍然詢問度相當高。

歌曲MV原本想邀請Kesha參與演出，但被Kesha婉拒，不過最後還是獲得09年MTV Video Music Awards的Best Hip-Hop Video提名。

那為什麼會寫出Right Round這首歌呢？照Flo Rida本人的說法是：「想擴展自己的音樂視野。」顯然Flo Rida想在音樂型態上做一些不一樣的嘗試。

Flo Rida feat Kesha - Right Round Lyrics

You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down

Hey
Hopped out of that house with my swagger
Hop in that with girl, I got places to go!
People to see, time is precious
I look at my crowd and they out of control
Just like my mind where I'm going
No women, no shorties, no nothin but clothes
No stoppin now, my parolees on role
I like my jewelry, that's always on gold
I know the storm is comin
my pockets keep tellin me it's gonna shower
Call up my homies that's home
Then pop in the night cuz it's meant to be ours
We keep a fade away shot cuz we ballin
it's platinum patron that be ours
Lil mama, I owe you just like the flowers
Girl you to drink with all that and power clubs

You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down
She got me throwin my money around
Ain't nothin more beautiful to be found
It's goin down down.
From the top of the pole I watch her go down
She got me throwin my money around
Ain't nothin more beautiful to be found
It's goin down down

Hey
Shawty must know I'm not playin
My money love her like a numba one fan
Don't look at my mouth, let her talk to my fans
My Benjamin Franklin
A couple of grands, I got rubber bands
My paper planes makin a dance
Get dirty all night, that's part of my thing

Keep building castles that's made out of sand
She's amazing, the fire blazing
Hotter than
Girl won't you move a lil closer?
Time to get paid, it's maximum wage
That body belong on a poster
I'm in a daze, that bottom is wavin' at me
Like damn it I know you
You wanna show like a gun out of holster
Tell me whatever and I'll be your roper ..

You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down
She got me throwin my money around
Ain't nothin more beautiful to be found
It's goin down down
From the top of the pole I watch her go down
She got me throwin my money around
Ain't nothin more beautiful to be found
It's goin down down

I'm feelin my money
I'm out of control
Somebody help me
She's takin my bank roll.
But I'm king golf the club
And I'm wearin the crown
Poppin these bottles
Touchin these models
Watchin they asses go down down

You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down
You spin my head right round, right round
When you go down, when you go down down

至於Flo Rida新專輯Wild Ones的幾支單曲Good Feeling、Wild Ones(featuring Sia)、Whistle和I Cry等又獲得廣大的迴響。其中，Whistle成為Flo Rida演藝生涯第三張告示牌冠軍單曲，在美國拿到兩張白金認證，YouTube上也已經有1億8000萬的瀏覽人次。

Flo Rida - Whistle Lyrics

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, let me know
Girl, I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow
You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, here we go

I'm betting you like people
And I'm betting you love freak mode
And I'm betting you like girls
That give love to girls and stroke your little ego

I bet you I'm guilty, your honor
That's just how we live in my genre
Went to hell and paid the Rottweiler
There's only one Flo and one Rida

I'm a damn shame, order more champagne
Pulled a damn ham string, trying to put it on ya
Bet your lips spin back around corner
Slow it down baby, take a little longer

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, let me know
Girl, I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow

You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, here we go

Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby

It's like everywhere I go, my whistle ready to flow
Shorty don't even know, she can get any by the low
Tell me she not a pro, it's okay, it's under control
Show me soprano 'cause girl, you can handle

Baby, we start something, you come up in bar clothes
Girl, I'm loosening, my Bugatti the same road
Show me your perfect pitch, you got it my banjo
Talented with your lips like you blew out a candle

So amusing
Now you can make a whistle with the music
Hope you ain't got no issue, you can do it
Give me the perfect pitch, you never lose it

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, let me know
Girl, I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow

You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, here we go

Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby

Go on girl, you can perk it
Let me see your whistle while you work it
I'ma lay it back, don't stop it
'Cause I love it how you drop it, drop it, drop it on me

Now, shorty let that whistle blow
Yeah, baby make that whistle blow

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, let me know
Girl, I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow

You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle, baby, here we go

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby

Can you blow my whistle, baby?
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
Whistle baby, whistle, baby
