I heard an interview with the rapper Flo rida the other day on the radio and it was actually very interesting. He grew up in the projects in one of the toughest neighborhoods in Miami, Florida (imagine that!) Well since he has made it big he does a lot for the community he grew up in. He gives a LOT of money back – he has a Thanksgiving program where he gives away hundreds of turkeys to the poor. He really makes a lot of effort to help the people that are in the very poor community he grew up in.
Now I bet you are wondering why I am telling you this. This really gives me a very different view of him as a person. This new information allows people like me (and you – don’t lie) to feel less guilty for enjoying songs like Low, Sugar and the new one that I don’t know the name of but when I hear it on the radio I never change the channel but feel like a freak for enjoying it. You know the “you spin me right round baby” song…. Now I will not have to feel guilty anymore knowing that even though his music is cheesy he is trying to make a difference. I am just happy that there are rappers that are out there trying to do some good – no matter how awesome or unawesome their music.
So I am in full support of Flo rida and singing – BOOTS WITH THE FUR. Go out and buy some Flo rida music.
Don’t let me regret this blog Flo rida.
Yeah that’s right – I just wrote a blog about Flo rida, and?!
