Flo-Rida - Roots(split tracks +covers)

* Hip hop's hottest hit maker Flo Rida returns in true gangster style with his second album, R.O.O.T.S. Enlisting help from an array of the music industry's biggest collaborators, Florida's husky-toned rapper presents a gargantuan record that buzzes and moves with high-energy club bangers and emotional accounts.

A little over a year since the release of his highly acclaimed debut album, Mail On Sunday, Flo Rida has returned to steal the hip hop spotlight with his sophomore effort, R.O.O.T.S. (Route Of Overcoming The Struggle). Having accrued more accolades than most artists see in their entire career, the former member of controversial rap unit 2 Live Crew seems certain to receive further acclaim as he recounts the highs and lows of his rise to fame on this eclectic release. Opening the album in true electro-tinged glory is 'Finally Here'. Shaking the foundations with blistering beats and heavenly hooks, the track cements the arrival of Flo Rida in extravagant and infectious fashion. Following in quick succession is the sensual 'Jump'. Featuring pop princess Nelly Furtado, the track is the first of many astonishing collaborations to emerge on the album. Appearing thick and fast, the red-hot artists offer their individual accompaniment to Rida's flowing rhymes. Whilst Ne-Yo and Wyclef Jean deliver their distinctive vocals on 'Be On You' and 'Rewind' respectively, the now legendary Dead Or Alive-inspired ,'Right Round', and the new sickly sweet single 'Sugar', come to life with vocals from hip hop candies Kesha and Wynter. Highlighting further the desire of established artists to work with Flo Rida is 'Available'. Encompassing the sound of the album, this Will.I.Am co-written tirade declares and confirms that the explosive rapper is back to set the music world alight.

R.O.O.T.S. is a well-rounded album that showcases the ability of Flo Rida to produce fabulously contagious smashes that make an instant impact and demand to be listened to again and again. Offering something for everyone, with its profound lyrics and catchy hooks, this hit-filled release is an honest, beat-led delight that will hold its own for many years to come.
