Flo Rida Talks About Success and Melissa Ford Rumors
After his tremendous recent success and making history by selling 470,000 digital units in one week for his track “Low“, Flo Rida had a few things to say about it.
“To have an album out for the first time and to have it do so well, and prior to that getting like over four-and-half million ringtones sold, it was just unbelievable, a dream come true,” Flo Rida said. “It definitely let me know prayer changes things.”
When his sister passed away when he was 15 years old, Flo Rida said it gave him inspiration to work hard and stay focused.
“I recall my sister passing away and I was just like, Wow, you got to take advantage of every day,” he recalls. “I was like if I was going to do music that’s what I was going to stick to. There was really no plan B. I always just kept my eye on the prize, stayed focused and patient.”
His next single, “In The Air,” features will.i.am, and will hopefully do as well as “Low”.

“I actually was sitting in the radio station and my A&R told me, ‘I have will.i.am on the line.’ Right there on the spot I flew from Florida all the way to Cali, went to his house and recorded the record,” he recalls. “I think its going be a real great record, a real party record. It’s basically saying, put your hands up [and] let’s party.”
Flo Rida also wasn’t afraid to address rumors that he and Melissa Ford are dating.
“She’s very sexy,” he says. “I did a radio interview with her and I think a lot of people probably thought it was a lot of flirtatious things going on. If I could I would definitely take advantage of it, but she’s a real cool person. Apple bottom! Just know that!
Well, he seems down-to-earth and I’m very happy for him that he has gotten so much success so soon. Good luck, Flo Rida!
