Album Review

Flo-Rida Mail On Sunday

Flo Rida has created a party host dream album with his debut LP “Mail On Sunday”, with every type of party song in attendance, a Dj could literally power a club on just Flo-Rida for weeks. He starts off his album with an upbeat club rocker featuring lil’ Wayne who surprisingly ends up slowing down the song with his more lyrically focused flow. This trend continues even when you get to a song like “Elevator” whose opening beat is slow and built for well placed lyrics but Timberland quickly speeds this up and it becomes the standard club rocker.

Something weird happens around the Track 6 that’s never happened to me while listening to a hip hop album, I forgot it was on and it became background/elevator music. Now I’m not sure if this is because Baby starts rapping or because this album isn’t meant to be listened to and studied, but danced to. The amount of catchy club tracks who’s hooks will stick in your head much longer than you would like is impressive and hasn’t been seen since Nelly’s second album.

The downside to this album is a lot of Hip Hop fans aren’t Dj’s and party host, they are hip hop heads who want either substance or cleverness, females who want strongly R&B influenced, and suburban white kids who wanna feel gangsta for 80 minutes. This album only barely pays lip service to each of these demographics, for the ladies he offers up the song, ”Me & U” about everlasting love. For our urban and suburban crowd, he discusses his hard road to get to this destination and all the hustling he had to do on the song “All My Life”. Lastly in an attempt to impress the hip hop fans, he created a clever song called “Still Missing” in which he personifies garden tools to describe the lost of his girl: I take care of yalllll errday / don’t know why my hoe got missing / my rake in good condition / my lawn mower in position.

Don’t get the impression that I think this album is bad or that Flo Rida can’t rap, because neither is true. He just clearly set out to make a certain type of album and in the process ostracized a majority of the people who listen to the genre. If you wish to hear a different side of Flo Rida, just check out his mix-tape “Welcome to Flo Rida”.

As a club album this gets: **** As an album for general use it gets: **
